Description
Welcome to the narrated offline walking tour of Plymouth, Massachusetts!
Plymouth
Visit the place where the United States began! As one of the first permanent English settlements in the New World, Plymouth is an essential stop for any history lover. This is the spot where the Mayflower landed in 1620, setting in motion a chain of events that would change the world forever.
Walk through this historic town, which still retains much of its old-timey charm and historic architecture. Get to know the Pilgrims, the Native people who helped them, and learn what life was like in this brand new colony. You’ll even have the chance to see a replica of the original Mayflower used to cross the Atlantic!
And, of course, no visit to Plymouth would be complete without stopping by the famous Plymouth Rock! Here, you’ll get the full story on this mythical boulder where the Pilgrims supposedly made landfall (including the controversy which surrounds the rock). If you’re looking to dive into America’s beginnings, look no further than Plymouth, Massachusetts!
