| We were led on a gently-paced stroll around town for a truely informative tour of the history of Plymouth by a knowledgable guide. We enjoyed the hour and a half, or so, tremendously and would highly recommend it to others. We even bought a gently seasoned, authentic looking Pilgrim lantern that looks beautiful in my autumn table display! |

| My sister and I recently visited Plymouth and found the Lantern tour to be a wonderful addition to our visits to the Mayflower II and the Plymouth Plantation. This lantern tour gave us a greater understanding of the history of Plymouth, the pilgrims landing and the native American people who already occupied this area. By hearing the stories and the history of the people and the area you can really begin to understand the dynamics between the two groups and the conflicts and difficulties that occured. WE highly recommend this wonderfu 90 minute evening walk. The guides are very knowledgeable and personable. |

| I would highly recommend this tour, I am from the area and learned even more about Plymouth's history and surrounding areas. The tour guide, William, provided a lot of interesting and insightful information, and kept the tour fun. |

| Having limited time to spend in Plymouth, we wanted to get a good overview of the sites. We took this tour on the evening of our arrival (July 21, 2006) and it turned out that we were the only three folks signed up. Our "private" tour guide was a lovely woman named Pat. The 90+ minutes flew by. Pat was full of interesting info and anecdotes. We freely asked questions and enjoyed our "conversation". Our Favorite Highlights: the travels & travails of Pilgrim Rock, discussion on the history of gravestone art at Burial Hill, and rubbing Massasoit's moccasin for good luck . Our 12 year old's interest was held for the entire tour and she got a kick out of traveling by the light of her own latern. We all learned quite a lot, and based on what we had seen / learned, we narrowed down which places we wanted to explore in depth the next day. We got a lot out this tour. It was definitely money & time well spent! |

| We took a group of students from our highschool-a Christian academy here on Long Island. Promptly at 7:15 our tour guide showed up-handed us our lit lanterns and the tour began. From the moment we left the trolley stop we were delighted by an informative, personable tour guide who was also willing to answer any of our questions. We learned so much-but it wasn't your average history lesson. The tour was a fun- filled fact journey and was more and more interesting with each step we took. For those who might wonder about the distance you would walk-it was not the least bit arduous, as every site is a stone's throw from the last.. Wonderful too, was the fact that you offered a history tour and not just the typical ghost tours so many historical sights offer. It was well done-we are bringing our own family back later this summer. Well worth the trip, the cost (which was minimal) and the walking!
Sincerely,
E. Graf |
