After years of family history research , we decided to finally do the whole "follow the pilgrim trail" thing and do as much research as possible in MA on our family and then head to the Plimoth Plantation to see how our ancestors lived. Knowing for years who our pilgrim ancestors were, it would be a unique experience to see... more

We visited Plimoth Plantation last August and found the attraction very enjoyable. As we had visited similar places in England before, we had an idea of what to expect from a living history museum. However, the whole experience far exceeded our expectations. Talking from a strictly historical standpoint, the place presents something unique where the understanding and telling of history... more

We had an enjoyable couple of hours here, meeting the Native Americans and the 17th Century Settlers. It's a shame not to visit considering that much of North American history comes from this point in time. As a "Living History" museum, this was one of the best we've visited. more

We had Thanksgiving dinner here- a real "Pilgrim" Thanksgiving, and it was by the far our best Thanksgiving. Our kids were 10 and 7, and they learned SO much. We visited the Plimouth Vilalge, and saw how the Pilgrims really lived, and also visited the Indian Village, and saw how they really lived, too. We toured the replica of the... more

The combination ticket to the Plimoth Plantation and the Mayflower reproduction is well worth the money. The "Pilgrim actors" and native people are so knowledgeable and interesting; they make history come alive! The village of Plymouth is designed nicely for visitors with waling paths, parking areas, gardens, museums and historical sites. Many nice restaurants and shops by the harbor and... more

When in Boston, make it a point to see this educational attraction. HIstory comes alive as the characters share about their colonial lifestyle. Visiting the Mayflower II gives incredible perspective into the conditions the Pilgrims endured on such a perilous voyage. Afterwards, enjoy great pizza & italian fare at Mamma Mia's across the street, more

Its hard to get past the spectacular and interesting history this place recounts, and in theory it is a marvelous journey back in time. However, the experience of the park is really just ok. Our family enjoyed observing the home sites and the feeling of being transported back in time. I do agree however with other reviewers that the interpreters,... more

We have just got back from Plimoth Plantation and having visited a number of similar "attractions" in countries including Japan, New Zealand and Australia have to say that we were a little disappointed with some aspects. The introduction movie provided by the History Channel was excellent and really set things up. However, it seems like they were short on people... more

We got the combination ticket ($28) and visited the Mayflower II first. This replica of the Mayflower is right next to Plymouth Rock. Nice tour with both role players and "modern" guides. Very interesting to see how 102 people spent 12 weeks on an ocean voyage. The exhibits out on the pier section are well laid-out and very informative. Role... more
