Beautiful day - We had never been to Martha’s Vineyard but had always wanted to go. Despite being a very early morning pickup, 6:15 am, the pickup was across the street from our hotel. Elaine, our driver was so informative along the ride to the ferry. She had suggested taking the tour on the island, and happy we did. Even though the two stops on the tour were short it gave us a good idea of the different places on the island for the next time we go to Martha’s Vineyard. Was a great day!

Perfect day going to Martha’s Vineyard. - One of the most fun tours I have done. The van ride from Boston to Falmouth where we caught the ferry was informative, entertaining, interactive and just plain fun. Johnny B is the best. Time on the island was just right and we were given information about the transportation on the island that was greatly helpful too. Pay attention folks, there is a test at the end and the winner won $2million! Or maybe not.

Highly recommend! Top highlight of our trip! - Both Jonathan and Tom were excellent at providing details the entire trip. We had plenty of time to explore on our own and have lunch. Martha's vineyard was beautiful and wasn't really crowded at this time of year. The ferry ride was wonderful too!

Day trip to Martha’s Vineyard - We enjoyed our trip and learned so much. Tom was a wealth of knowledge. Our bus driver , Tim was also very good and entertaining. He was funny and kept us laughing. The trip was ALOT of riding in a bus but it had to be. I wish we could have made a few more stops but to do the trip in one day it’s impossible to spend much more time on the island.

Martha’s Vineyard - Fun little one day adventure with family made very comfortable and relaxing by our tour guide (Ilene)! Picked up by our tour guide and taken to ferry which then took us across water to the island of Martha’s Vineyard, got on a bus where we were taken by bus all around the island by another tour guide (Anthony) who narrated the many points of interests about the island, had plenty of time to explore and eat before boarding the ferry and small tour bus back to our hotel.. Excellent day!
