Took this tour in September. Kristen was our tour guide and she was fantastic. We saw so much in just one day and she gave us a lot of local historical information. Many of the stops we would not have known about on our own or wouldn’t have found them even if we knew about them. Saw several lighthouses and beautiful scenery. This was one of the best tours I’ve been on and it’s mainly because of Kristen. You won’t be disappointed on this tour.

Thank you for the GREAT 5 star review of our Plymouth and Cape Cod day trip. Kristin certainly is a fantastic guide and her knowledge of this area is beyond reproach. As you stated, there is some wonderful scenery on this tour that is certainly quintessential New England. All this and the Plimoth Plantation as well! Kind Regards, Stephen M.

Good mix of history and local sights. Glad to have hotel pickup saving travel to central location in early morning. Bad traffic slowed parts of day-long trip.

We had a great trip to Cape Cod and Plymouth (plus Plimouth plantation) with great explanations of historical events and figures throughout our day journey. The change from Sandwich to Cape Cod and the lighthouses was especially welcome. We had never been to New England before, and to sit along these rocky beaches and breathe that salt air is to for the first time understand the beauty of New England. As an unexpected added bonus, we saw the house where John Adams lived and died. Then his birth house. What a wonderful surprise. Kristin is an amazing guide; very approachable and accommodating. Her knowledge of the areas and their histories was remarkable; couldn't ask for a better guide! Just an amazing memorable trip, and I haven't even mentioned Plimouth Plantation yet, so interesting!

Thank you for the WONDERFUL 5 Star review of our Plymouth and Cape Cod day trip. We recently have replaced the Cape Cod town of Sandwich with the Cape Cod town of Falmouth on this trip. Our guests really seem to enjoy Falmouth with it's beautiful downtown and scenic oceanfront. New England certainly is a special part of our country and Kristin's knowledge of Boston and the beautiful, historical geographical area south of the city is truly amazing. I am thrilled that your first time visiting the area and experiencing the ocean and salt air was with us. So glad that you enjoyed your day! Sincerely, Stephen M.
