My daughter and I were in Rhode Island for the weekend celebrating our birthdays and decided to take a one-day exertion to Martha's Vineyard. Our experience with Viator was wonderful. From the Yes We Van shuttle service to the relaxing ferry ride the travel was flawless. As for the island ~ we loved it and wished we could have stayed their overnight for an additional day. Thank you for a fabulous experience! Great memories we had because of you!

My sister-in-law came to visit and we decided to take the tour. It was wonderful. Both our van drivers, Dan and Noel, were knowledgeable and engaging. In the morning Dan gave us a brief tour of New Bedford, very interesting. Noel was very knowledgeable about Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and the Vineyard. The Vineyard was BEAUTIFUL. We enjoyed walking the Oak Bluffs area and going to the beach. We also took a taxi to the other towns, all wonderful. We are so glad we took this tour and are now planning to vacation in the Vineyard next year.

From beginning to end, our day was as close to perfect as one can get! Our drivers to and from the ferry were fun and informative. The sun was out and the sky full of beautiful clouds. We rented a car and went all around the island, beginning with the Aquinnah cliffs and ending with a dip in the water and lobster bisque at the Lookout Tavern. We saw everything in one day. The scent of jasmine followed us in our convertible, definitely the way to go! Impressed by the colors of the water and meadows here. Beautiful island, beautiful memories made!

We enjoyed very much from the very first minute we got picked up by Debbie on front of the hotel .
The car was clean and disinfected with a protective window dividing driver and passengers . Very safe 😷
She explain to us everything about Island and gave us some highlights .
She introduced us also with a history of New Bedford where we got dropped off to ferry .
Debbie also gave us some refreshments , tickets to ferry and Island map 😃.
On our way back Noel was waiting for us and drove us back to the hotel .
He was also very friendly and communicative .
Memories forever ❤️
The trip was warted every penny .

Thank you, Daniella, for taking the time to send in a review of our Day Trip to Martha’s Vineyard. It was a pleasure to meet you both. We are happy you took a day to stop and enjoy the beauty and history of our area. In September, you can enjoy the warm serenity of the islands without the normal crowds. Thanks again for sharing!

Noel and Shawn were great! Tour we purchased on island was unprofessional and driver was rude. Forgot 6 passengers and we had to go back! Wasted an hour of our trip and he didn't even apologize or request another van to pick us up when we decided to end tour. We were on a very right schedule and he didn't care! Please tell your passengers to use buses and not purchase 3,4,5 hour tours on island. People can just hop on and hop off buses and so much cheaper.

Just to be clear, this day trip only includes round trip car service from your hotel in Providence to the Martha's Vineyard ferry terminal in New Bedford, MA and round trip ferry tickets. So, once you are on the island, you must do your own thing. There are tours you can purchase independently once you arrive at the island. Having said that, it was a very convenient way to go. Our driver, Dan, was very pleasant and friendly and he gave us great service.
Response from Host , Aug 2019
Thank you so much for your feedback. And GREAT point about our day trip. We want to make sure we give you the opportunity to visit the island the way you want to visit. We do have suggested things to see and do but the feedback from years past has always been to keep the itinerary open. Thank you again and glad you had a FANTASTIC TIME!!!!
As an aside, totally agree with your assessment of Dan. :)

Was picked up at my hotel in Providence in a private car. The Yes we can ride service took us to New Bedford to ride the SeaStreak Fast Ferry to Martha's vineyard and later that day the same ride service picked us up at the docks in New Bedford and drove us back to Providence. While on the Island we rode public transportation (day pass is $10.00 each adult person).

Very pretty beach community. Do the 8/bus all day pass so you can get around to each area of the island. The driving cumpnay is prompt and nice. Nice to not have to worry about the ferry or any of those details because they will handle all of that. Would use them for future tours.

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
