Craig was professional... - Craig was professional and shared history as well as many facts about the Vineyard. His recommendations for activities were greatl! Were able to see much of the island in three hours and not rushed. Early September was a good time to avoid the crowds and only a few places had closed for the season.

Our first trip to the Vineyard - My family and I traveled to the vineyard, as my mom has always wanted to go. Craig was wonderful. The experience was personal, Craig was very knowledgeable about the different parts of the island and was very accomadating, as we had a toddler with us and my parents are seniors. It was a great experience that I would say, highly recommend!

Great way to learn about the island! - We had a great time with Craig! He knew all about the history of the island. We had several things we heard we should see/do on the island. Craig checked every box! Traveled with our 18 and 21 year olds. They had a great time too and enjoyed the day! Definitely recommend!

Martha’s Vineyard in the rain - The weather was a bit dicey, but the tour guide did the best he could. There was a torrential downpour at one point, and he could’ve driven a bit slower.
