Your tour guide, Jeremy D'Entremont, has been photographing and writing about lighthouses for 30 years. He is the founder of the Friends of Portsmouth Harbor Lighthouses and the historian for the American Lighthouse Foundation. He has lectured on his favorite topic all along the New England coast. All tours begin and end in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. Pickup and drop-off is usually at the public parking lot near the Connect Community Church near the Market Street Extension (200 Chase Drive) in Portsmouth, but arrangements can often be made for pickup at area hotels. Click here to see the parking lot on Google Maps. The usual capacity on all tours is 5 participants, but 6 can be accommodated if at least one is a child. The tours are not recommended for children under 6 years old. With all tours, we reserve the right to change the itinerary if conditions (weather, traffic problems, etc.) make it necessary. We will make every effort to complete the itineraries as described, and to substitute other interesting destinations if necessary. Advance purchase is needed for all tours.

Join Jeremy D'Entremont, author of more than a dozen books and hundreds of articles on lighthouse history, for a minivan tour of some of New England's most beautiful and historic beacons. A portion of the proceeds from all tours is donated to help lighthouse preservation.
