    A feel good place, a must visit. Historic center with plenty of parking…read more Go alone or with friends. Plan your day around The Glass Museum. The library is close by for a restroom stop. The Daniel Webster Inn is another historic visit. The chowder here is well worth getting. Don't leave Sandwich without walking on The Boardwalk.

    We've passed this museum about a thousand time when down on the Cape. However one day, we decided…read moreto make it our destination place during a non-Nantucket weekend. Plenty of parking; a big lot, in fact. There are three parts to this museum. First, there is the museum proper. A timeline and timetable of the history of glass on Cape Cod, and Sandwich, and this particular old factory. The collection is amazing. If you're over 40 and grew up in the Commonwealth, you are certain to see pieces that you recognize or had in your home. A few funny little things along the way of the self-paced tour. Secondly, there is an actual working glass blowing section. Artisans of glass blow and show. It is quite impressive! They encourage questions too. Finally, there is one heck of a store where you can purchase wonderful pieces of glass they make on-site (we did - purple glass paperweight - see in the photo below). We collect the glass plates made on the Cape. One in each corner of the windows. Another Cape tradition. Lots of fun, learning, and reminiscing. Highly recommend a visit. We are sure to visit again.

    An incredible outing if you enjoy a lolly-gagging walk in other's gardens!…read more As a child, in the mid-1970s in the South Shore of the Commonwealth, this was a Field Trip destination - say 3rd grade 1975. It was fun back in the day as they had not only the cars they do today, but they boasted an incredible collection of American firearms from the flintlocks of the American Revolution to the Six-Shooters of the Wild Wild West. No more. The cars alone are worth the trek. From those crazy platform things with an engine to Caddy's, a Doosy, and everything in between. Incredible vintage, originals and restored. There is also a building for rotating exhibits. A wonderful set of gardens of flowers, fauna, and herbs. A lovely walk. Also, they've a nice store with some local touristy kind of trinkets, Cape historical stuff, and books on subject at the museum. Several buildings. All walkable. Wear a hat on warm sunny days. Having a water would be a good idea too. A good walk for those in shape. Elderly or handi-able there might be some challenges. I love this place. Reminds me of my childhood and simpler times. A Cape Cod classic.

    Of course I had to visit the Heritage Museums & Gardens whilst out on the Cape! - - - - !!Emphasis…read moreon "Gardens"!! :) Start off in the beautifully curated antique automobile museum. HMG has quite an amazing and rather extensive collection of automobiles from the early days 1905, 1920s, 1930s, to 1940s. Great to see the various transitions the production and inventions the auto industry went through - various engines of electric, steam, or gasoline as fuel. All autos are perfectly restored and in working condition! Then meander through the magnifique Hydrangea gardens - eight varieties and 160 species...the full varied gardens cover 100 acres. (Lookout NYBG). You're welcome! Finish at the exquisitely restored carousel for a lovely ride! The carousel is beautifully restored. Built in 1908 in Providence, Rhode Island. Thank you for a wonderful time!

    My boyfriend and I went on the kayak tour with Justin. We had an awesome time. Justin was great,…read moreaccomodating, was a great tour guide and lots of fun. The water was beautiful and clean, and very scenic navagating the canals between thehigh grass. We really enjoyed ourselves. Justin was also great in that he honored a truilia. I did check w/ him to make sure that he/his business was compensated b/c trulia took client money and then literally closed up shop and ran. To be honest, if he told me trulia had not compensated him, i would have happily paid twice. It was a really great way to spend the day at the cape. Two disclaimers. The kayak tour is not at the Jarves address. That is just where a sign w/ directions to the beach/parking ($5 or $10) is available. Also none of the businesses near the sign at Jarves St have any public restrooms, so that could be an issue. I nicked a star b/c I had difficulty getting in touch w/ Justin to arrange the tour closer to the date. So we just took a Thursday off and winged it. We were lucky there were two slots open. Other people on the tour did say he called them back promptly and this wasn't an issue. He does spend a good portion of the day outside working, so its possible he just missed my messages. Anycase, still worth it. We had a wonderful time.

    This is a nice way to spend a relaxing afternoon. We did a 2-hr tour with a few friends, using a…read moreGroupon deal. The tour itself was neat, never kayaked through an estuary before... it seems like it'd be a good way to introduce someone who's never been kayaking before, to start here, before doing anything more open water. The tour itself was decent, however, because we were in a group of 8, it was hard to hear majority of what the tourguide was saying, unless you happened to be the kayak that was right next to him. Another downside of kayaking an estuary vs something more open water is that several times, it begins to be more like bumper boats in some parts! Overall, a nice experience and a neat alternative for something to do on the Cape. However, communication could have been better. The tourguide told my friend organizing, that he'd call her the day before with more details, but never did. Also, the address that is given, actually leads you to the front of an art gallery and only a placard out front advertising "ecotourz" without an address telling you how to get to the actual meeting area (which is ~1 mile away).
