Oak Bluffs, visite audio de Martha's Vineyard

Aperçu

Knockabout Travel takes you to Martha's Vineyard, with this self-paced audio tour of the most popular town on the island. Discover the origin story of how Oak Bluffs developed from its humble beginnings as a religious camp into a summer destination for business moguls, celebrities, and US Presidents.

On the tour, we discuss the development of the Martha's Vineyard Camp Meeting Association, home to the "campground" and the famed gingerbread cottages. Learn how the area around Ocean Park and Circuit Avenue was developed with tourism in mind, and how that conflicted with the original Methodist campers. Along the route, you will be introduced to some of the finer points and lesser-known history of the town, as well as places to grab lunch or a drink.

The tour is GPS guided with turn-by-turn directions and audio tracks that play automatically at the right time and place so you're free to simply enjoy the tour.

Sorry that you had technical difficulties with the tour. I have refunded your money and you should see it shortly. I'm pretty sure that the tour works fine. Several others used it on this day. From time to time, folks do call me with tech issues and I am almost always able to talk them through how to start the tour. That being said, some issues do arise. Printed directions can be misinterpreted or cell phone service could be sketchy are two potential reasons. In any case, a refund is in order as I am not physically present to guide you through the process.

My wife and I did this recently on a one-day trip to Martha's Vineyard. We had never been before, so we learned quite a bit. We did run into a bit of a snag, and left a message with Gregg, and he called us back within five minutes. A wonderful way to get an introduction to the island, and it was quite easy to stop the tour, and linger at various spots. Key Points: The cell signal on the island can be spotty. DOWNLOAD THE APP (VoiceMap), and the complete tour before you get on the island! (That way, you'll be ready to start your tour as soon as you get off the ferry.) Make sure your phone is fully charged, and you have headphones. All in all, a great tour for a fantastic price!

Easy to manage audio program. Learned a lot about Martha’s Vineyard that I never knew. Nice, easy walk for my husband who has Parkinson’s.
