    This is the second time someone in my party purchased this; it's very difficult to follow. And when you're looking at the map, it will remove where my car is to show me a picture.

    We travel quite often and have used many driving audio programs in the past. This one was impossible to use! We tried for over TWO hours to get "on track" and it was just not working correctly! We followed all the instructions, downloaded the app when we had internet connection, we began our tour at the designated spot and was still not able to use the application. Very frustrating!!! In the end, we wish we would have just hired a tour driver to take us around the island.

    The designated starting location of the ferry is not accessible and we could not get the tour to sync up and start. Also, some of the stories are cut off or incompletely recorded.

    The island was beautiful, but hard to see much in December when a lot was closed. Would have been good to know this beforehand.

    I booked this tour online the evening before we travelled with our car to Martha's Vineyard. During the process I was asked to pay, and did so. I then got a confirmation screen which confirmed my booking (it even said "HAPPY TRAVELS, YOU'VE BOOKED A GOOD ONE" and gave me a confirmation number). I took a screenshot of the confirmation. The confirmation said I would receive an email in an hour but it never came. It should have had all the details of how to access an app for our tour I never received any email. I checked all emails, including spam, social, promotions etc. But it never came. As we had booked to bring our car on the ferry to Marthas Vineyard we went ahead without any audioguide. We tried using the help system to no avail. My advice is to never book an audioguide from this company. (And if you are the owner of the company please do not reply to this review like you have fone with others who have complained, by saying the guide never expires and we can use it another time - that's no use. We only had a short period in this area. Also we certainly won't be relying on your system to try a different guide in another country). I want my money back please!

    Flying Horses Carousel

    The Flying Horses Carousel is a totally unique landmark. It's the oldest operating platform carousel in the country, having been built in 1876. In the early days, the horses on this ride sported real horse hair! The carousel is still in operation today, though it has been updated for comfort and safety.

    Inkwell Beach

    Inkwell Beach, situated on the eastern side of Oak Bluffs, is a small and pretty beach with a bit of an unsavory past. In the early to mid 1900s, Martha's Vineyard beaches were fully segregated. As a result, beaches like this one were underfunded and generally left in disrepair by local authorities. Today, however, all of that has changed.

    Duration 10 minutes

    Caroline Tuthill Wildlife Preserve

    As you pass the Caroline Tuthill Wildlife Preserve, you'll want to keep your eyes peeled for any of the more than 300 species of bird which can be found on the Vineyard. This preserve is also home to tons of local flora, including bountiful wildfowers of all sorts. Beyond it, you'll also head about the whaling industry and how it once defined the island.

    Chappaquiddick Island

    Chappaquiddick Island, just off the coast of Edgartown's downtown, gets its name from the Wampanoag tribe. In their language, Chappaquiddick means "separated island." And yes, that does mean that its name is technically "Separated Island Island"!

    Duration 10 minutes

    Katama Beach/ South Beach

    Finally, you'll arrive at South Beach. This long strip of sand is basically two beaches in one, with the placid Katama Bay on one side and the dramatic Atlantic Ocean surf on the other. Whether you want to lounge on the sand, catch some surf, or just break out the binoculars and search for shore birds, this is the beach for you. Your tour concludes here, though there are more optional stops around the island if you want to keep the adventure going.
