Totally exceeded expectations
dianemN6982RC, October 2026
Our guide was incredible! Corrie is so passionate about the island and was able to share amazing stories from her personal upbringing here. She was accommodating to everyone’s preference on what to see and included everything promised. We are happy we were able to squeeze this in - what a precious memory.

MVT was very easy to work with and accommodating in helping us design the tour. Our guide, Troy, was well-read and provided great historical and cultural perspectives. I have visited MV for over 30 yrs and learned a lot on this tour.

Burt was an incredible guide. Having grown up in the area was a bonus. His geological background was amazing. The van allowed for a cozy number. The views & history were educational and spectacular.
★★★★★Viator review
Great tour, so glad I chose this tour!
Krista_G, October 2026
What a fun tour! We rode in a van all over the island. Our guide, Cauri, was fantastic with her knowledge of the island and insider perspectives. She was an excellent driver and I felt very safe. I think the stop at the cliffs in Aquinnah was my favorite part. The view is stunning and you can’t really appreciate it in a photo or online. It’s a must see.
