“Excellent, good value and fascinating”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 February 2012

A great tour. Well worth the entrance fee. I especially liked the views of the airport and the creepy atmosphere. Remember it is NOT included in the price of the park admission and is closed on Sunday. More

up hill but great views. Nice man showed me round. Needed some personal stories to bring it alive. It's OK if you're into that stuff which I am but rather dull if not. More
