We enjoyed the tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable and had an interesting sense of humor. We would have loved to get more photo opportunities but understand why this was not possible. The lobster roll on the 1st stop was extortionate ($29.99 for lobster claw meat in a small roll, no veggies, no sauce, no nothing). The seats in the mini van are close together so there isn't much room to stretch your legs out. The seas themselves were comfortable though and the temperature inside the van was comfortable as well. We would do another tour with this company.

Yes, lobster is expensive :) And yes, in order to tour the entire Island, we can only offer 2 stops - (but if you opt for a private tour in the future, you can stop as often as you like!) Thank-you for this review!

Due to the inclement weather the ferry to Martha’s Vineyard was cancelled. I’d only booked the tour an hour before because of the weather uncertainty. When I tried to cancel via TripAdvisor it said it wasn’t possible. Luckily the person running the tour had text me. I contacted them and they gave me a number in the US to ring and I was immediately refunded. It took all the worry and stress out of a bad day.

Oh, I'm so glad! That was me :) (Teri)We let all of our customers know that if the ferry isn't running due to inclement weather we honor refunds & try to make it as easy as possible with our 3rd party booking affiliates. Hope you can join us in the future!

A good overall tour with helpful info. We stopped at only two places: the fishing village and the cliffs and lighthouse. The van was EXTREMELY small and very cramped. I had to help ladies step out since the guide made no effort to do so.

Hi Randy - the van didn't shrink on the day you took your tour - you with a total of 12pax on a 14pax, Ford Transit van - very roomy - individual seating. But it is all relative - depending on the individual. And thank-you for jumping out to help ppl into van !
