Sounds like a bar crawl more than a walking tour. If they stop at 7 places is the idea that everyone gets a drink in all 7? And if people are eating then how's that going to work, surely that will just delay everything for an hour or so in that stop. I might message him to find out how it works.

Please do because it sounds interesting, but I don't want to drink 7 beers.

I thought the same. I think a haunted tour of the Zone would be interesting. I have thought this for at least 20 years when I was doing tours. It would be fun but would need a guard to make it safe after midnight and also permission to enter some places. But a bar hop tour...anyone can do that on their own, don't need to pay a guide to do that. Not interesting to me at all when I don't drink alcohol.

The focus of this tour is the explanations. I think it will be Kin Sanchez giving the tour; he is very knowledgeable and an excellent storyteller. Those who can try not to miss these tours. I would, but will not be in SD due to previous commitments.
