Pleasant, fun, fact filled walk

Historic Plymouth Free Tour (Aug 2026)

We truly enjoyed Peter Crowley's historical knowledge of the Mayflower days in Plymouth MA. It was great to have narratives about where the Mayflower ship actually landed cleared up, and how Plymouth Rock got it's legendary status.
