It was a great experience. Tom was a great guide on the island. We didnt realize how big Martha's Vineyard really is. There is much history there. Coop de ville was a great restaurant. The Mahi Mahi tacos were great as was the Mahi sandwich. There was no shortage of Mahi on the sandwich or tacos. The clam chowder was so good. Beautiful water views.

Our trip was amazing. Thatch was an excellent drive, safe and on time. Info was great for learning about Boston and area. Ferry was great and team super friendly. Paul on the island was excellent the info was amazing for our 1st time there. Just would’ve like a bit more time to explore Oaks Bluff: Over all well worth it.

Sightseeing made easy. Pickens up at our hotel on time and travelled by van to the ferry. Our driver was great. She told stories most of the way. Ferry ride was pleasant. Bus tour of the island was informative and beautiful. Lunch at Nancy’s. Travel back was seamless. Highly recommend this tour

Speedy, bumpy tour

Bernadette_W, Sep 2026
Our tour of Martha's Vineyard was very disappointing. Our tour guide, Anthony, was very knowledgeable and shared a wealth of historical information throughout the tour. His expertise was evident, and we appreciated the depth of context he provided. However, the overall experience was significantly diminished by the fact that we were confined to a school bus for the entire three‑hour tour. The bus itself made it extremely difficult to see many of the landmarks and points of interest he described, as the windows, seating, and height of the vehicle were not conducive to sightseeing. As a result, we spent much of the tour hearing about numerous historical sites without actually being able to view them. Anthony referenced many important locations, but because the bus did not stop frequently—and because visibility from inside the bus was so limited—we were unable to connect his commentary with the physical places he was describing. There were very few stops during the tour, which meant that the majority of the experience consisted of riding and bumping around on the bus rather than engaging with the sites themselves. This made the tour feel incomplete and far less immersive than expected. For a tour centered on history and local landmarks, the lack of meaningful opportunities to see or explore those locations was a major disappointment.

Everything was well...

Kathy_W, Sep 2026
Everything was well planned and organized, even though there was bad weather moving in. Would use Viator again and recommend to others.

Thank you for your wonderful 5 Star review of Boston's ORIGINAL Martha's Vineyard Day trip. Viator is a wonderful option for booking trips while New England Trips is wonderful at providing them. Thanks for sharing your experience. Kind Regards, Stephen M. Belcastro President New England Trips Inc.

Day on Martha's Vinyard

Linda_W, Sep 2026
Our trip from Boston to Martha's Vinyard was a very long, but good day. Because of the distance we had to leave very early and got back about 7:45pm due to traffic. I don't you could see it any other way. We did take the optional 3 hour island tour, it was worth it. Our guides were both very good and excellent drivers.

Response from Host, Sep 2026

Thank you for your EXCELLENT 5 Star review of Boston's ORIGINAL Martha's Vineyard Day trip. I am glad that you enjoyed your day and appreciate you sharing your experience. Kind Regards, Stephen M. Belcastro President New England Trips Inc.

Family from Japan, we all are disappointed so much. I hope I can get some refund, particularly the extra 3 hours tour.

Hsiumi_C, Sep 2026
I paid usd 776.0 for 4 persons, but the trip was not worth it completed. 1) The driver was good from Boston to Ferry port. 2) The second driver was NG in Math's Vineyard. He just talks about something what he want to say without passion and with high-speed. He stopped the bus for one minute to let people know the place belongs Kennedy family that's all. 3) The discount coupon doesn't work because stores closed for the season. You know the situation before we went, so the coupon meaning nothing.

Response from Host, Sep 2026

Thank you for your review. I am glad that you enjoyed your time with Johnny Boston and sorry that you did not enjoy your island tour guide nearly as much. Our discount card works for a free chowder with a purchased meal at Coupe de Ville on Oak Bluffs Harbor. They certainly are still open though the day of your trip the ferry had to arrive into Vineyard Haven due to the weather. Perhaps if your trip was on a bright sunny day you would've enjoyed your experience much more than you did. My apologies if it did not live up to your expectations. Sincerely, Stephen M. Belcastro President New England Trips Inc.

More to Boston

BelindaG_M, Sep 2026
Great day trip! Johnny Boston xip our tour driver was on time, funny & updated us on all possible changes due to the northeastern/weather due to come in. Luckily our trip was not canceled due to ferry into Martha’s Vineyard. Had lots of knowledge on our drive through Boston. He shared we may see different animals on our way, searching for turkeys,deer & giraffe !?yup that’s what I said. Not disappointed, We found one.🦒 He shared water and breakfast for our early drive. Our tour van was comfortable. I’m so glad I took his suggestion on grabbing the island tour. Was worth it. So much extra information. Our island tour guide Tom a native to the island sure had cool info, he knew so much. He shared his extra roll in the background of the movie Jaws. We forgive him for almost forgetting us in GayHead it was the windy and different numbers of people on each bus. Thanks for stopping and waiting. 🏃‍♀️so stay alert. Johnny Boston xip was waiting for us as he said. Happy to see us all back. The best group. ☺️Thank goodness the ferry kept running. New England tours, communication & knowledge was on point. Thanks again. Carlos&BelindaM SATX

Response from Host, Sep 2026

Thank you for your GREAT 5 Star review of Boston's ORIGINAL Martha's Vineyard Day trip. I am glad that you enjoyed your time with both Johnny Boston and Tom. Though very different, they both are great at what they do. Here at New England Trips, we take great pride in being Boston's #1 day trip service to the island since 2011. There have been different, less experienced services that have stranded guests on the island in bad weather. We've never had that problem. I appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and appreciate your kind words regarding our service. Sincerely, Stephen M. Belcastro President New England Trips Inc.

Don’t miss the island or XIV

David_G, Sep 2026
This is a great overview of the Island. People should know to definitely take the optional island tour. If you don’t you will see very little of the island and not learn anything about its history. You will miss the two lighthouses and the interior of the island. The fun part of the trip was the ride to and from Boston to the ferry. Johnny Boston XIV has a unique way of being both informative and entertaining. His PHD in tourology becomes very apparent during the course of the journey. He is one graduate that Harvard should be very proud of. His encyclopedic knowledge of historical trivia is simply astounding. No one should come to Boston and miss him.

Nice drive around the island, wish I could have seen more.

CarliaAnn_F, Sep 2026
It’s a long day. Most of it is spent on transportation…van/ferry/van. A lot of info given on Martha’s Vineyard…the older gentleman who drove us around had lived there all his life… but you don’t really see a lot. So and so lives down this road. So and so is buried under that tree with a fence around it. So and so use to live in the house coming up. Glad I did it. But definitely one and done.

Great way to see Martha's Vineyard without actually staying on Island.

Frankie_N, Sep 2026
Fun tour, we were lucky (I think?) to have Johnny Boston Fourteen as our guide getting us to the ferry to go to Martha's Vineyard. He kept us entertained and pointed out animal sightings along the way. We saw deer, a Bernese Mountain Dog, and a giraffe! I do wish more restaurants and bars were open though as we went on 9/21 and many stores and restaurants were already closed for end of season.

Lovely trip to Martha’s Vineyard

sallyspelman, Sep 2026
It was a lovely experience. The optional tour around the island is a must to be able to see as much of the island as possible. Not Viator’s fault but the heavens did open mid pm and very miserable walking around Oak Bluff and we had to change to another ferry company for the return journey but nobody’s fault. These things just happen and we can’t control the weather

Great trip

Iain_W, Sep 2026
Excellent trip though the coaches down to the ferry and on the island weren’t the comfiest and bones given a good shake. Both guides Black cap Brian and Jaws Tom were informative and what we now don’t know about Martha’s Vineyard is not worth knowing. Personally would have liked more time in Edgartown to explore

Easy Travel from Boston to Martha's Vineyard

Jennifer_S, Sep 2026
New England Trips provided a fun and seamless journey from our hotel to Martha's Vineyard and back. I love to travel independently (and plan it all) but I wouldn't have experienced as much or been as relaxed as I was on this trip. Jay offered great information on the drive each way to the ferry. We were offered bottled water and snack, then made a quick stop at McDonald's for breakfast. It was all so easy and informative! Our tour of Martha's Vineyard was just as good. We saw so much of the island. Our guide was interesting and humorous. We had a couple of stops for shopping and got back to Oak Bluffs in plenty of time for window shopping, lunch (Coupe de Ville) and seeing the charming homes at the MV Camp Meeting Association area. The trip and the tour are well worth the price!

Response from Host, Sep 2026

Thank you for your GREAT 5 Star review of Boston's ORIGINAL Martha's Vineyard Day trip. I am glad that we were able to make your independent journey a seamless one.

Long but worthwhile tour!

Joyce_M, Sep 2026
It’s a 2 hour trip from Boston to the Martha’s Vineyard ferry. Our guide Johnny Boston did a great job of navigating and narrating about landmarks and history. On the island you have a 3+ hour bus tour by Tom - a life long resident - who was outstanding! A great experience, but lots of time on the bus - especially on a Friday afternoon at 5:00! Thankfully Johnny Boston knew the backroads to shave some time off the return trip because the interstate was stopped 😡.we were picked up at exactly 6:30am and returned at 7:30pm. A long day, but if you want to see Martha’s Vineyard in one day, we highly recommend - be sure to ask for Johnny Boston because he really knows his history and keeps you informed.

Wrong pick up point

David_P, Sep 2026
You need to to check where your pick up point is On my ticket it gave the front of hotel as pick up. They actually picked up at back of hotel on another road. Missed the trip.

Response from Host, Sep 2026

Thank you for your review. We emailed you the exact pickup info and you responded confirming our email. You can blame us if you wish but we were where we told you that we would be. By the way, the ticket lists the hotel address and nothing more. I apologize for the confusion but perhaps you should have read our email before confirming it. Regards, Stephen M. Belcastro President New England Trips Inc.

Would not recommend after Labor Day

Ashlee_H, Sep 2026
I would not go in the off season. The off season is after Labor Day. I went the day after. The island was shut down except for tourist shops. The cute boutiques were closed. The restaurants were only open at the port. The tour itself had time to shop at the main parts of the town, but the driver sped past the historical areas making it difficult to photograph and enjoy the island. A lot of time was focused on Jaws, when there is a vast history of the island.
