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.

Nice tour. Wised it worked better with the IPhone in that it showed were you were and promoted you to turn onto the next street. Otherwise great information.

We loved the information provided in this tour! The app was a bit clunky, but we managed a workaround. For instance, the audio tour stopped working on my phone after the second point of interest. I was able to continue by sharing my partner’s earbuds! But, all in all, I would recommend the tour.

This has been corrected for the 2023 season. The tour now includes GPS triggers that automatically play at the correct time and place, as well as turn-by-turn directions. Audio files are now easily downloaded within the Voice Map app which works on all smartphones, so cell signal strength is no longer an issue.
