From the October 5, 2020, Wilmington (NC) Star-News by Hunter Ingram.
To get a guided tour of some of the state's most popular tourist attractions, guests will now have to shell out a few bucks.
Starting October 15, 2020, The N.C. Department of Natural and Cultural Resources which oversees the state's Historic Sites, will charge a nominal fee for tours at 18 of its 27 sites across the state, including Fort Fisher and Brunswick/Fort Anderson sites near Wilmington. The fees will be $2 for adults and $1 for seniors and children 5-12 and free for children under five.
This only applies to guided tours. Access to the site and visitor centers still remains free at the sites where they are currently free.
I've been on several Fort Fisher tours and they are well worth much more than $2.
And, of course, it all goes for a good cause.
A Good Deal. --Old B-Runner
