Experience our premier event of the year, the Candle Lantern Tour- an annual tradition since 1979! Take an entertaining 30-minute guided candlelit tour through time with stops at the blacksmith’s shop, hospital, powder magazine, barracks jail, and more. Watch out – there may be a sneak attack by Union ships in the river! Don’t miss the exclusive nighttime cannon firings. This is a fun event for groups!

Tours begin at 6:40 pm and last about 30 minutes each. The last tour ends at 10 pm.

*NOTE: You will need to arrive to the park at least 15 minutes before your tour start time. Tours leave promptly and cannot wait for you if you are late.

Cost: $25 per person (no ParkPass needed).  Children two and under are free.

Tours need to be reserved in advance by phone. Preregister calling the park office at 912-727-2339 where you can reserve your time slot and pay. Or, visit the park office at 3894 Fort McAllister Rd.
