Nice tour of Martha's vineyard. Too bad we could not stop more to take pictures. It would have been nice to stop in Edgartown. Phil was an excellent guide. We highly recommend him. Knows so much about the Island.

Ahh - we can't have it all in life! And as you know, in order to tour the entire Island in 3 hours, we can only provide 2 stops - so please private tour again with us - request Phil and we promise you can spend as much time in Edgartown as you like :)

Very convenient transfer from ferry to shuttle bus. There were only 7 on our tour and the driver/guide, Sam, was a life-long resident (well.., his parents moved to the island when he was two weeks old). Sam was super knowledgable about the sites we visited and his commentary was very well delivered. His stories, based on his long tenure on the island, were sprinkled with a great deal of information, including the changes to the island over the past 60-70 years. The stops were well chosen and we felt this tour was important to our one day visit to MV and truly leaving with a sense of knowledge about the island's history, present, and its future. Would strongly recommend!
