While very popular for those who give and take this tour, this tour is labor intensive and serves very few people per year. Tours are currently offered twice a day from Memorial Day to Labor Day and on weekends only the rest of the year. Limit is 25 people. The age limit is 6 years old.
On a trial basis, the number of tours will be limited to one per day from Memorial Day to Labor Day and age limit will be increased to 8 years old. The age limit will remain if effect through Dec 2009 when visitor counts will be reviewed and comments received from the public.
