It is unfortunate yeah, all of my other visits there have all been guided. It worked out well because our three year old probably would not have been patient through a guided tour. I did ask about the conning tower interior and apparently they do what they call nooks and crannies tours, the next of which I think is on April 9, where they take you extensively through the boat including the tower. But I agree, I know exactly what I want to see, and it’s very hard being limited by a tour guide.

Hopefully the woman at the front desk was correct in saying that all winter is self guided, that’s when I would recommend to go if that is indeed the case.
