$30 is a bit excessive....and there is no combo package! Mayflower ship has been in dry dock for 4 years!! So if you buy the combo you are paying more for less. there are real actors who stay in character even when you ask them a question the pretend they are still living in the 1600s, that was cool. Seeing the pilgrim houses and old artifacts is nothing new that many of us haven’t seen. Most of the homes have characters in them or outside. It would have been much better if there were more characters doing daily tasks out and about. There was no overlook onto the ocean, one of the characters told us it’s currently not available. Which really was a bummer. Also there aren’t native Americans in character like there was suppose to be. This is the whole point of the tour is to go back in time. There was one lady inside a teepee who spoke to us in present day fashion, not in character. Although she was nice. Also the grist mill wasn’t grinding cornmeal that day so it was suggested we didn’t go (tickets separate) and the Mayflower ship has been gone for 4 years according to a local. It has been in dry dock awaiting its sail for 400th anniversary in 2020.

I'm sorry if it was not explained properly to you, that yes there is a combination package - Plimoth Plantation and the Plimoth Grist Mill sold through Trip Advisor. It appears that you may have purchased a single site visit to the main campus - Plimoth Plantation. When Mayflower returns the combination package will include an option of visiting the ship or the mill. The exciting part of visiting the English Village or Wampanoag Homesite, is that there is something new every day, the program changes depending on the season and the chores that were necessary, and if the weather is cold or rainy you'll find staff in the houses or wetus, as we would be today. In the English Village, you will encounter actors portraying first-person the colonists of the 17th century. In the Wampanoag Homesite, the staff are Indigenous People talking from a modern perspective about their culture and history, they are not actors. In the English Village, the most stunning view of the Atlantic Ocean is from the Fort House, also seen from any Pilgrim house, and the Homesite located on the Eel River has a view of the water feeding into the bay. Sorry that you heard that the mill would not be interesting if it was not milling. On the days it is not grinding, that's my favorite time to see how impressive and important 17th science, technology, engineering and math are for us today. There's also something new to learn everyday at the mill, a day in the life of a miller. We are excited to have the Mayflower return after a three year restoration program, her scheduled arrival is late May 2020.
