You will meet St Dubhan and William Marshall (the greatest Knight) on your journey, while your guide regales stories from the lighthouse's past.

Traveler reviews
Hooked on Hook Lighthouse
Hook Lighthouse is quite the experience. The only way to see the Lighthouse is to book a tour - our guide Lisa LOVES the lighthouse. Her enthusiasm for its history is contagious. The fact that it is old - over 800 years old, still working, is amazing. The view is unreal. You will enjoy (especially on a clear day!) We have added Hook Lighthouse to the list of “must dos” when we have visitors.
Hook Head Lighthouse
This was an awesome site to visit. The staff were welcoming, the group just 9 people, the guide engaging, passionate and knowledgeable, the history very interesting, the views, even on this misty day, were fantastic. Thoroughly recommend 5 🌟 from me 🙂
Beautiful working lighthouse
The lighthouse and the area is beautiful to see. The tour you did get to climb the lighthouse and get some information. John was our tour guide and was very much into the lighthouse and saying all of us has part of it because our families probably passed by it. It was hooked on William Marshall and spoke about him more then the lighthouse
Great Experience
The Lighthouse Tour was very educational and entertaining with great scenery all around. The history is absorbing and related by John Pearce an avid guide who showed great passion and detailed knowledge. Certainly worth the drive. There is a plenty to do for children and a restaurant on site.
Great tour, very nice location with equally beautiful views.
Great views, a really nice place to relax. Our guide Paul was very nice, you could tell he enjoyed the tour. It was very informative and entertaining. Definitely recommended.
