About This Tour
This Narrated Plymouth History Tour offers a unique perspective—literally. Experience Plymouth’s iconic landmarks from the water, guided by a local captain with deep roots in the community. Unlike land-based tours, you'll get up-close views of the Mayflower II, Plymouth Rock, and working waterfront from the harbor itself. We blend storytelling, history, and sightseeing into a relaxing cruise that's fun and informative for all ages. With shaded outdoor seating, panoramic views, and personal narration—not a pre-recorded loop—this is Plymouth’s most authentic and scenic history experience.
