The Experience
What your day looks like
Step back in time on Nantucket’s oldest and most authentic guided tour. Experience the rich history and natural beauty of Nantucket on this 90-minute narrated van or bus tour. Founded by Quakers and steeped in maritime heritage, Nantucket comes to life through engaging stories and scenic stops at iconic landmarks — including Sankaty Head Lighthouse, the charming rose-covered cottages of Siasconset, the Old Mill, and the island’s oldest (or second-oldest!) house. As Nantucket’s longest-running tour company, our roots go back to Chester Barrett’s original horse and buggy rides. Today, we continue that legacy with comfortable, informative tours that give you a true feel for the island — perfect for first-time visitors or returning guests looking for deeper insight.
