The Lighthouse tour was a breathtaking experience. The top view is incredible; the air and wind is so fresh and clean; the ocean and cape view is gorgeous. The tour guide - Nathan was fab, loved his local community history knowledge. Nathan was very informative and full of anecdotes and good humour stories. An enjoyable experience, thoroughly recommended it.

My ticketing experience was flawless and quick with no issues . The tour itself was absolutely amazing. The guide was knowledgeable and inclusive of the entire group. She was really patient and kind especially with the children making it fun and interactive. It was apparent that she loved her job. I apologise for not remembering the guides name as we did so many tours and the names all seemed to blend into one. Thank you.
