Took the bus trip around Martha’s Vineyard and it turned out to be a wonderful experience from start to finish. The bus itself was very easy to spot at the pickup point, which made the beginning of the trip smooth and stress-free. Boarding was well organized, and the whole process felt relaxed and welcoming.
Throughout the journey, the driver/ guide was friendly and very knowledgeable. They shared interesting facts and stories about the island, its history, and the different towns we visited. The commentary was informative without feeling overwhelming, which made the ride both educational and enjoyable.
One of the highlights of the trip was the time we were given at each stop. There was plenty of opportunity to get off the bus, explore the areas, take photos.
The bus itself was comfortable, and the overall organization of the trip made everything easy to follow.
Overall, it was a very enjoyable and memorable day. The combination of a well-organized tour, interesting information, and fun stops along the way made this Martha’s Vineyard bus trip a great way to see the island. I would definitely recommend it.
We are, the only ones have four stops to get off the bus. We also offer a lot of amenities that no other tour offers. The tours keep you fully engaged and all we require is for you to be curious! We will not disappoint, what makes us entirely different is that we have a screen at the front of the bus that shows what certain sites looked like in the days of yore. To get a great depth and understanding of what Martha's Vineyard was, and how we are now. The All Island Bus Tour takes you on an adventure you will never forget. Capture the beautiful vistas, the quaint little cottages, the amazing clay cliffs and everything in between. We offer a lot of amenities and have some great stories that intertwine with the awesome history that has been waiting for us to share. With time to shop, dine and sightsee. Your tour will be the highlight of your vacation. We can't wait to meet you!

David was very informative along the route and stopped so we could enjoy the scenery and even do a little shopping. We learned a lot about current day Martha's Vineyard and the historical aspects of the island.

Tour guide grew up on Martha’s Vineyard so he was very informative. He was very patient and answered questions asked of him.

David was a fun, professional tour guide. Warm and articulate with lots of personal knowledge and stories to share about Martha’s Vineyard. The tour was for 14 participants which was ideal for someone who doesn’t usually enjoy group activities on holiday and took around 3 hours with a stop for some great chowder. Everyone enjoyed the tour and all the highlights and towns were included in the tour. As an addition we learned lots about the filming of Jaws on the Island. Highly recommend.

The tour was a very good way to see the Island. The guide was informative and a very good at communicating facts which would grab your attention. Martha’s Vineyard is a beautiful place well worth the visit a place we will hopefully return too. The guide was very good. The only downside was the inability to stop at Edgartown and bust the harbour. The Jaws sites were great the information much appreciated. Very good trip.
PS in respect of the “Downside” the streets were narrow with many people milling about so maybe there are restrictions outside the tour companies control.
