Crawford Tour

Registered guests at The Lighthouse B&B (and their guests)  get a 50% discount on the Crawford Tour, regularly priced at $19.95 per person, with a minimum charge of $19.95 for a tour.  Children and larger groups also receive a reduced rate. The tour usually takes about two hours, and includes a narrated trip in our minivan to Crawford and the Ranch.  We tell you about the events that have taken place in the area since the President and First Lady have made their home here.  Much of our information comes from having been the mailman for the route where the Ranch is for almost 23 years, along with some 45 years of living and working in Crawford. 

We point out the places where particular events have happened, such as the Inaugural Ball, the announcement of Colin Powell to be Secretary of State, the President's voting place, the Coffee Station, the site of the President's press conferences, the media locations, souvenir shops, the original ranch home where the President first lived, the Secret Service Headquarters, the White House Communications site, heliport,  along with other places related to the Texas White House, etc.

Various anecdotes that are interesting to most are related and there is plenty of time for questions.

Please try to reserve your tour as soon as you decide so we can include you in our schedule of tours.
