Such a Pleasant Tour!! - We are 2 couples traveling from abroad for the first time and really enjoyed how pleasant our tour guide was on this experience. He took extra time to explain the details that we where confused by and never rushed us with our questions. He made us feel so welcomed...Thanks again!

Comfortable Tour - Very knowledgeable and kind; clean and comfortable transportation- would’ve liked to “stop” to take pictures a few times then just the one time - pricey for 2 hrs for 4 people (cost was $450 and tipped $60)

Picture Perfect - The 2 hour tour brought us through the most beautiful, quaint New England towns. We found Edgartown to be picture perfect with its adorable main street that winds along its busy harbor with Chappaquiddick in the background. The guide was full of interesting facts and made the trip enjoyable, even during the rainy part!!

Amazing Sights - We are 2 couples who came over just for the afternoon and wanted to do a private tour. This tour by far exceeded our expectations. Craig, our tour guide, was well prepared and very knowledgeable. Most importantly he was extremely positive! He made special stops for photos and bathroom breaks. We recommend this tour to other couples who are looking for a VIP experience...THANKS!
