Great experience. We went during Covid, so it was less crowded than I expected. Still, exhibits were amazing. The native american village was staffed by two tribe members with incredible skills and knowledge. They are building a huge canoe the traditional way that I plan to follow online. I tip my hat to the two men there who were so kind to answer all the questions my kids had for them. Truly classy people who made the trip special for my family. There was another man inside the museum who was making traditional headdresses. He had so much knowledge and was so willing to share it. It is a treasure that these people have to share these skilss and stories. I thank them all. At the village area the staff were equally friendly and had great answers for our questions. Its a really cool experience.

You are so right, an incredible experience to be able to talk with members of many different indigenous nations. What you experienced in the gallery exhibit with eh making of porcupine headdresses is not seen anywhere else in the country.. Maybe next time you visit the Mishoon will be completed and on exhibit next to the Mayflower.

The Plimoth Plantation experience was very good and very interesting ... with actors staying in role...I felt what those coming to a new land 400 years ago, must have felt ,why they came, what they left behind, and what they endured in this new country... but nothing from the American Indian's point of view (WHAT ELSE IS NEW?) I was told and now agree that visiting the Plimoth Grist Mill would be a waste of time...AND IT WAS.... Spokesperson was very good,,but nothing much or interesting to see and not worth $8.95 per person, should be free.....MAYFLOWER II wasn't there...Saw it in New London, Ct..on drive home...FOR FREE!

Sorry about that. The price you mention for the mill is retail and the discount that Trip Advisor guests receive in the combination ticket.. The Plimoth Grist Mill is a fun and exciting 17th-century STEM program that is fully operational today.

The Indian village was very sparse and so much more could have been done there including fish drying racks, skinned deer in process ect... only one “native” on site. The English village was a bit better and enjoyable. Was disappointed that we were forced to wear masks AND all the water fountains were closed off in 90+ degree temperatures. More could have been done to ensure the comfort and safety of the guests. The grist mill is attached to a restaurant which threw me off and made me have a bit of trouble locating it but once found was informative. Disappointed that while I paid to see the Mayflower, it was not there and no discounts provided. That would have been the highlight for me.

The Patuxet Homesite is an exhibit of seasonal/cultural ways of the Wampanoag people who have lived in Southeastern Massachusetts for over 12,000 years. As we reopened in June, the staff were preparing the land for the spring/summer house 'wetu' and the planting fields as they would have done in the spring. All activities are seasonal and some that you mentioned do not occur in the spring. For the safety of our guests and required by State regulations, all water fountains were closed, drinks are available to purchase through retail and Plentiful Cafe or you may bring your own water bottle. I'm sorry that you were disappointed that you missed the Mayflower, maybe you'll visit again soon. Mayflower admission tickets go on sale from Trip Advisor effective September 1st in the combination ticket, prior to that the combination ticket included Plimoth Plantation and the Plimoth Grist Mill..
