Martha's Vineyard

Our trip to Martha's Vineyard was fun and informative. It started early at 6:15 am, and our driver Johnathan met us with a small and snacks. Learned a lot of the history of Boston along the ride to Cape Cod. The ferry ride was about 25 minute. We then boarded a bus with our driver Anthony and took a 3 hour tour around the island. 2 stops where we were able to get off and shop, bathroom break, take pictures. After returning to our starting point we had 3 and a half hours to explore on our own. Definitely enjoyed our beautiful day on Martha's Vineyard!
Great Customer Service

The guide was extremely knowledgeable about the history of the area, and great personality. Company was very understanding and flexible with a wrong date reservation on our end. They booked us on the next day’s bus and really went out of their way though it was our mistake. Don’t see customer service like that anymore. Loved the free time we had on Martha’s Vineyard.
Amazing Tour

Our tour guide was excellent! He had so much knowledge about Martha’s Vineyard, and he was very entertaining! He kept the trip going with his humor and knowledge that I appreciated, and we had many stops along the way that we were able to enjoy the island! Definitely suggest that this tour is a must when you are in Martha’s Vineyard!

Everything was great, well organized and right on time, from the minibus trip (who picked us up from our hotel), to the relaxing ferry ride and our 3-hour bus tour of the island. Johnny Boston who drove us to the Cape was informative and entertaining as was Keith who drove us around the island.

A must-do when going to Martha's Vineyard. How else could we have gotten the commentary from a local who was born, raised, and lives there? Seriously, it could not have been better.
