I usually hear "guided tour" and cringe, but I was pleasantly surprised. Our tour-guide, Lawson, was well versed on the lighthouse and made for a perfectly timed tour-not too long, nor too short. We enjoyed the museum part as well as the fog whistle demonstration. I've toured many lighthouses but this one was the MOST informative. Only downside was the extremely rude young woman selling tickets. I asked how long the tour was and she just mumbled, "I dunno." Could barely get her to say two words while checking us out-she should not work customer service. However, on the way out there was different woman selling tickets and working the shop who was delightful-so to not let one bad apple spoil the bunch, I'll still give 5 stars because the rest was great!
