This tour saved our trip! - Visiting Plymouth in the off-season when all the museums and attractions are closed was a bit disappointing, BUT this walking tour saved the entire trip!! My fiancé and I were still able to get the Plymouth experience and history through this tour. We will definitely try others.

Great tour for teens that don’t want longer tours - This audio tour was easy to use and was just enough history for my teens and tweens that didn’t want a long tour. I appreciated that it had a map, audio and also the written text so while we were at lunch I could read ahead to what we were going to do. The town is surreal and worth walking through.

No whales but still had fun - We saw a sun fish. We didnt see any close ups of the whales so they gave us rain check tickets for up to a yr.

Pleasant tour - We enjoyed the guided tour because it took us places in Plymouth that we wouldn’t have gone on our own. We learned some additional history about the sites along the way. The information is overly simplified. Not sure who the target audience is for this tour? There is a navigation error at sites 16 and 17. When you get to the church, turn right and go up the stairs to the cemetery. Don’t go left as the map directs you to do.
