Excellent Tour for 1st Timers on MV - Wayne delivered an outstanding three‑hour bus tour of Martha’s Vineyard, covering the entire island with ease and energy. His knowledge of local history, culture, and hidden landmarks made every stop feel meaningful, and his storytelling kept the group engaged throughout. The pacing was perfect, and the route gave a true sense of the island’s character.
He balanced professionalism with warmth, making sure everyone was comfortable and had time for photos and questions. From Oak Bluffs to Aquinnah, Wayne offered insights we never would have discovered on our own. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a complete, enjoyable introduction to Martha’s Vineyard.

Great Tour - We took the ferry over for just the day from Cape Cod and this was a wonderful way to get to see an overview of the whole island. We wanted a relaxing time and did not want to worry about figuring out logistics ourselves. Our tour guide was wonderful and we learned so much about the island, both past and present. I would definitely recommend this tour!

Great way to see the entire island! - This was an absolutely fascinating tour! Rich, our driver/guide was informative, entertaining, and clearly wanted to make this an unforgettable experience. He succeeded!, we toured all five towns, saw rich history and gorgeous architecture, and had a great time! Rich goes out of way to make this our tour, not his. Highly recommend! And definitely ask for Rich!

Oak Bluff tour - Duncan was very experienced. He’s been living in Oak Bluffs pretty much his whole life. There wasn’t one question that you could ask if he didn’t know the answer to.

Martha's Vineyard #1 Tour - Our tour operator was Mr. Greg and he was born and raised on the island.
He shared a wealth of knowledge about the entire island, sharing stories that only a local would know!

3 hours in a moving car on a small island does not make for a fun afternoon - The driver was knowledgeable, but it was a lot of driving and it was very hard to see much of what the driver talked about from the back of a moving van. We got out once for 15 minutes and then back in the car. My friends and I also thought that the host, Ken, was a little brisk. Maybe rude when dealing directly with the guest questions. His WELL REHEARSED story throughout the drive was fine, but when trying to ask questions, his responses seemed unnecessarily brisk. It left a bad taste in my mouth. I regret this tour.
