Great

The overall experience was terrific. Great commentary from the friendly coach driver. Explanations of the various points of interest along the way to Cape Cod were of a high standard.

The driver was knowledgeable and the trip was down was interesting. There was too much free time spent in the town of Hyannis which was a bit dreary to say the least. I would have liked to have seen some more coastline and sand dunes or maybe a trip up to Provincetown. I don't really like being taken to a place for lunch either. I prefer to choose my own venue if possible.

long hours spent on driving , few hours spent in Cape Cod. 20 mins at JFK memorial, 1 hr 20 mins shopping area, 1 hr lunch. Beach just passed by. Better to go in Cape Cod on your own. Excellent driver, made passengers laugh from time to time, made recommendation on where to eat and what to eat.

The trip was not as it was billed. We drove to a rest stop for fifteen minutes where there was public beach then drove around Yarmouth and Hyannis until lunch. After lunch we went on a nice cruise of the Nantucket Sound and saw the Kennedy compound from a great distance. The person giving the tour didn't know all the correct information and a native of Hyannis had to correct her then we went shopping for an hour and fifteen minutes before heading back to Boston. I had two children with me, and I thought the day would be spent along the beaches with lunch and some shopping. I would never have spent the money had I known this is what it would be.

Excellent trip - enjoyed it, all ran like clockwork (except for the usual people back late each time we stopped) Lunch was excellent in a lovely location.

Parts of this tour were okay but on the whole very disappointing. Our lunch stop was definetly the worst reatuarant we have ever eaten in. The Driver/Guide was very disappointing.

We did this tour last week, the place itself was lovely, I must however mention the "bus driver" and I say that loosely as he was in no way a tour guide,_br/_ He talked non stop, about fake stories, way off topic stuff,, about him , his life, himself , also kept mentioning how he was going to show us the best shops, places etc etc, he thoroughly bored the beejeezus out of me, he actually spoiled it a bit. _br/_ Cape cod was lovely, the day we went though it was rather cold, the driver also said we would stop off at a fantastic gift shop where they sold lovely warm hoodies, sweatshirts etc, it was a 10ft by 8ft store that had about three huge extra large tops, i had to buy one as I was freezing,_br/_ The guy was the most ungenuine man I have ever had the mispleasure to listen to, so dissapointed , he was also commenting on members of the public etc, in the streets, in a not very nice way. for me, he spoiled most of this day

Review by: Angshuman B	September 2010
The trip was strictly ok. We thought we would be able to go to the beach but could not

Review by: Anonymous	August 2010
very well organized excursion. Mark our driver was very knowledgable about the area and we learned a lot at a nice relaxing pace. I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to take a break from Boston for the day. I felt that saw a lot more than we would if we were on our own and there was no stress of traffic and finding your way around The restaurant we stopped for lunch, The Lobstor Boat was great.

Review by: Anonymous	July 2010
This was a really great trip. Bus was very comfortable. Great bus driverguide. A great chance to see Cape Cod without driving yourself. Would have loved to have stopped in Sandwich to view the town, but loved everything we visited.

Review by: Carolyn B, United States of America	June 2010
Kennedy Museum disappointing, lunch was good even though it was on our own expense. Our guide was fantastic.

Review by: Dolores V, United States of America	June 2010
Our tour guide enhanced the trip by his knowledge of the area...and very personable. We actually learned about Cape Cod while enjoying the beautiful harbors, beaches, homes, historical sites, etc.

I was not happy with this excursion! I have used Viator in several countries and was always very happy with them. But this trip you used another company and it was disappointing. First, we just drove through Cape Cod and spent most of the time in Hyannis Port. You should change the name of the excursion since it's misleading. Second, the driver was friendly enough but way to talkative and talked about crude incidents that had happened on previous trips such as a person's dentures who had fallen in the toilet and then had to be removed. He went on and on about such things. Very unprofessional. We were dropped off at a very disappointing area in Hyannis Port, very very disappointing. I had read previous reviews so I don't know why this one was so bad. I wanted Cape Cod and did not get what I requested.

Little bit boring this one, but OK.

Review by: Sarah C, United Kingdom	July 2009
It was a brilliant day out, very enjoyable, and well organised. Our bus driver was very knowledgeable and interesting.

Review by: Veronique A, France	June 2009
The main problem is that the cruise focused only on Hyannis. We would appreciate going elsewhere in the north of the cape to see the nature.

Review by: Albert W, United States of America	September 2008
What an incredibly beautiful locale. Miles and miles of delightful homes and cottages, marvelous landscapes and seascapes, historical sights and most friendly Cape Cod's.

Review by: Anonymous, United Kingdom	September 2008
Driver very experienced and knowledgeable of area. Cape Cod was stunning! Plenty of time for shopping. Overall trip was worth it.

Review by: Rita C, Ireland	August 2007
A wonderful trip with excellent tour guide/driver, quite a fantastic insight into the life of the people at Cape Cod. Not to be missed, would encourage a holiday in the area. Boat trip was very well conducted with plenty of local knowledge and a very courteous crew.
