This did not end up being a problem. I brought a flashlight in my purse as a precaution, but I never brought it out. Rocky does carry a lantern (and a light on his phone), but in general there was enough public lighting to see, at least while we were there.
At one point I thought I felt a bite, and started to worry about bugs. Only one bite surfaced, and not until two days later, but it may be something to think about.
The bigger issue was parking. Street parking was full, and although a map checked out before showed several parking lots, they were all private lots patrolled by predatory towing companies. ("Predatory" was on a sign, and it was not an exaggeration.) The best bet is probably the Municipal Parking lot, about four blocks away at 1220 Main Street.

Accessibility: All of the tours description mention stairs, as well as the approximate walking distance.For our tour, the only stairs were briefly on the Grand Staircase, then back up. The tour descriptions also mention calling to arrange an alternative route if the stairs will cause difficulty. I do not doubt that they can and will make helpful accommodations.
And of course, there is an elevator. A big one.
Highly recommended.
