We came over for the day as a family with 2 young children and had such an enjoyable time on the 3 hour tour. Our guide was very patient with our kids as he showed them the locations where the movie "JAWS" was filmed. Lots of picture stops as well and good attention to detail. This was an all-around good time!

This tour brought us around the whole island with very good research in terms of the narration. Craig explained the differences between the towns and even made it exciting for our children (8/12). We had fun at all the stops and found the painted cliffs of Aquinnah to be the highlight!

Craig was an amazing tour guide in this private tour. He knows Martha Vineyard in and out. I learn some interesting facts during the tour. The lunch stop for lobster rolls was nice. We bought some scallops, fish, and shrimps from the local market too. Craig let us use his cooler. Highly recommended for those want to learn the history and the people of Martha Vineyard. My little sister aged 10 continued to talk about the facts she learnt from Craig the next day.
