Great history lesson!
The stories were wonderful! However the narrative would repeat it self before or after the supposed location. Also, we missed, somehow the various points in Ptown. Not sure why.

An Excellent Couples Activity
Alex was our tour guide. He showed us where the old meets the new in Cape Cod, showed us all of the fun local and tourist hot spots, and gave us wonderful stories throughout our tour. I cannot recommend this gentleman enough!

Good overview of the Cape
Enjoyed the tour, the optional recommended side trips and even a few side trips we chose on ourselves. We got thru whole tour from west to east. Also downloaded east to west and listened on return trip (narrative works better starting at visitors center in Barnstable than starting at Provincetown. I recommend more time in Chatham.

We thought this was a great little app to guide you round the cape on a rainy day when going to the beach was not an option.
We visited lots of things we wouldn’t have picked up on and found it was an easy to use fun app.

Comfortable Ferry
Beautiful ferry. Comfortable, clean seating . The crew were friendly and helpful with all questions . Loved the central location near Aquariam for drop off . It was an easy walk to South Station where we continued on to a train to NYC . Would recommend this Ferry !

Booking Complications
Purchase tickets from Boston, then returning purchase tickets from Provincetown. The meeting place is not an indicator of a return trip. Website did not make this clear but Boston City Harbor cruises helped to mitigate the situation.
