The ship is impressive, especially when you realize the number of passengers (102) not counting 2 dogs, chickens and pigs that shared the space with them.It really hits you how persevering they were.The crew are well versed about the ship and the cordage in 1620. Well worth a visit ! For the kids the us a pulley set up to demonstrate their effectiveness.

Very nice replica of the Mayflower 2 ship. You can go inside and on board but have to pay. Also you get a time slot just to go into the ship and see first hand. Very nice to see how the pilgrims sailed to america.

Interesting to see the replica, but the information provided by the various staff really makes the Mayflower II worthwhile! You really need to ask questions to get the best effect. The staff will tell you some information, but if you ask questions, they really open up with great details. We enjoyed it and highly recommend it!

I love this part of Plymouth (recommend the plantation also) its a great walk with reasonable parking right on the water front. Plenty of shops and places to eat, a revitization seems to be happening. Pleasant place to take a good long walk and have beautiful scenery, rich with culture and history. If you want to see art or more history there are a few meuseums and galleries a few blocks away. Almost like an amusement park on the harbor :)

See the Mayflower II and many waterfront sites.

Beautiful replica that was just refurbished with amazing, informative staff who interacted well with adults and children. Great way to learn about the history.

Although the boat was in great condition, my rating reflects our experience and disappointment with how information was shared and what we learned during our visit. We went with the expectation that actors would be in character sharing stories of their experience on a historic journey. Instead, we talked to folks who had brought the boat over from Mystic; information shared was mostly technical and focused on specs of the boat with a few details of what happened on the boat historically, but it felt more like a lecture than a step back into time. My family, the adults and children, were disappointed. Our 5 and 7 year old had enjoyed talking to folks at Plimoth Plantation earlier in the week and were hoping for more of the same on the Mayflower II. When information is presented to children in the form of a story, as if its present day, it is as if youre speaking their language, that of stories, allowing them to really engage and understand.If you want to go see a ship and hear facts about its voyage, then I guess it might meet your expectations. In a world where facts are easily accessible by book and the Internet, it seems to me now more than ever, an engaging living history museum would truly be of value. I hope the staff considers this before completely discontinuing the use of their characters.

It has been refitted, and new paint and it looks great.

I loved getting to know this beautiful old museum.

Very shocking to see how these people had to live on a tiny ship. Unbelievable!!

Great historical site to see

There is such a build up to see Plymouth Rock and its a bit of a let down when you see it. Its a clean and well maintained park. Worth checking out the Waterfront area but keep expectations low about the rock because it is just a rock.

Awesome place on a Friday night, great food at East Bay Grille

As a history buff I love going to see the Mayflower 2 it is currently out of town for a while being redone. It is really exciting to be coming up on 2020 and to live in a town like Plymouth. When the boat is back I highly suggest you come to town and look around at all the attractions!

Went when the Mayflower 2 wasnt docked there but hanging out on the coast of Plymouth is a must if you go to New England. Plenty of shops, beautiful views and lots of history.

Too bad I just passed by.. and at night time. not the greatest view. But I could feel the history alive.

It’s so interactive that even us as adults had plenty of fun. Definitely stop by when there.

Wonderful place to visit... If you dont like crazy busy bells and whistles.... Just natural beauty with comfort... This is a place I would recommend. The rock is just that ... A rock... But the monument erected in recognition of the pilgrims this is a place to check out.

Great history lesson. The period actors were great. The harsh day made for a more visceral feeling of how it might have been.

Mayflower 2 is a great place to see how much of a rough voyage it was for the pilgrims to cross the Atlantic to Plymouth. Of course, its not a full size replica, mind you. And watch your head as you go below decks. Its easy to imagine the dark, cramped and filthy conditions the pilgrims endured, not to mention the seasickness and diseases. Theyve just got it back from major repairs and overhaul and its in fine shape. If you see the longboat tied up near Mayflower, thats called the shallop, and was used to bring landing parties ashore. Let me tell you, that shallop weighs a ton and is no easy thing to row.

Closes at 5. Not much to do but just look at it

Nice place to relax and decompress

Got to see plymouth rock!

Good visit. Wished the Mayflower II was there. Why would they drydock the most important thing people come to see in tourist season? Bring a shitpot full of money. I dont think you can by anything that cost under 5 bucks.

Great to see in the Summer and Fall

As a enthuisast of rocks this is a very cool rock

Nice place to take the sites in, learn some history. lots of dining waters edge dining, fine dining as well as grab and go. Catch a whale watching tour or a fishing charter. Lots to do for all ages. souvenir and artisan shops

Not a ton of information and rather expensive, for young kids it would be exciting but if youre older than 15 than just look at it from outside and read the wiki page on the Mayflower, after that head across the street and spend the 15 dollars I just saved you on a souvenir or meal for yourself

Very Interesting Experience! I enjoyed the staff dressed in character. For the best experience, ask them questions!

Plimouth Plantation is a great place to see Native Americans and Pilgrims how they lived and worked together in a setting that brings you back in history with perfect detail.

Need to experience for yourself

Neat little town.

An historic interesting experience

Really cool place to visit with historically accurate portrayals by actors. It helps you get a real feel for what life was like and what they had to go through to come across the ocean. Very interesting and fun.

Lovely day and a cool place to spend few hours

Not the original Mayflower but still awesome to visit here!

Very impressive and the staff are really knowledgeable. Amazing to think that such a small ship managed such a journey. Very interesting history and the volunteers arent afraid to uncover some uncomfortable truths about the pilgrims... Very good and well worth a visit.

If you are looking for an unbelievable seafood meal, you will not find a better place to get it than Woods! Not a big fancy place, but the location, portions and taste dont getany better anywhere in the USA. After being on the Cape for a year, Woods by far, outdoes any place else....and we have tried many!

Pricy but historic everyone should see it once.

Awesome place, cant wait to go back

A very nice historic place

Lovely downtown area, cant wait until the Mayflower II is back

Mayflower ll, missing ! has not been there for last 2 years and will notreturn for another year. ship is in ct, being redone ? would have beennice to know before I drove 1600 miles to see it,then find out its not there. visited several sites before going ,none mentioned ship not there.

Great replica of the actual Mayflower that the pilgrims rode on here! Havent been on here, but is astonishing just to see! Feel free to buy tickets and go inside of this boat of history! Even though it is not the actual boat, is was purposely designed to look like it! If in Plymouth, you shouldnt miss seeing the replica of the Mayflower!

If your looking for a boat to start a new country this is the one.It comes with large cargo holds that can easily stuff 50+ people.and a deck that would make any pirate excited.

The ship was tiny! It was an old wine ship used to move wine casks around the coasts of England. The Pilgrims were reading the first English Bible. The Queen of England and then King James made it illegal to have a Bible written in English. The Monarchy wanted complete control of the people. The Bible tells us truth! We all may have Freedom and Liberty from tyranny like those who want to outlaw religious freedom. The Pilgrims risked everything to escape England and start a new life in America. Out of 102 persons who arrived in the new world...44 died in that first cold winter. Most were the mothers who covered the children at night to save them from the bitter cold.Would you be willing to sacrifice all in order to have your freedom to read your Bible? Maybe soon we will have to once again the way most in this country are so Anti-Bible and Christ. Something to consider.

I was expecting there to be more actors but we did get there right as they opened so we might have missed them. The first non actor gentleman on deck was extremely informative the lady down below deck was more shut in terms of giving information and the actors were very good in their roles and got a couple of chuckles out of everyone. I still cant believe how small the boat is (with 100+ people on board).

A great place for a walk and picnic.very relaxing by the water. Lots of benches to site. Great stores a cross the street and lots of history

Gave us an idea of how the settlers and Indians lived

The Mayflower 2 is in CT right now being rehabbed, but its pretty cool when docked here. Surprisingly tiny but very well recreated, Mayflower 2 is worth a visit. Plymouth Rock is underwhelming no matter what your expectations are.

I went to Plymouth in my fourth grade end-year trip, and we got to see the Mayflower II. It was pretty awesome! There were people pretending to be English colonists, speaking just like them, and I pretty much liked it. ^_^

Very historic place and we have visited several times. The replica of May Flower ship is must visit. The museum and plantation near by gives you an idea how it all began.! Pilgrims came here in -608 and you can the rock the ship hit. Every American should visit to get a glimpse of our history.!

I liked one woman who played her role at this ship. I had the filling that I was back 400 years ago. And the ship is cool! Unbelievable how 130 people could live here.

Sadly the Mayflower was not there. It was getting fixes.

Such a nice place to just walk around not too big not too small

Lovely place to walk around for you and your family

The Pilgrims lived it and I got to experience it! What brave and determined people. Very worth while to know your heritage.

We went during a free day and it was lovely. It seemed a bit expensive other wise. Short visit as there isnt much to it but the folks are great with some lovely tales and my kids enjoyed it even if it got quite crowded.

Amazing how small the ship is compared to modern standards!

A surreal experience! It was windy and cool and the sea breeze filled us with wonder and pride in our forefathers! Such difficult conditions they went through really convicts us!

Even though it is a replica, it is impressive to see the type of ship that I learned about for so long in school. I was surprised at how small it was compared to popular ships that survived the revolutionary war.

Historical Plymouth plantation home of first pilgrims

A historical journey into the Mayflower. The actors will transport you back into time of close quarters and the fear of scurvy. Overall, a great stop for kids and the entire family. Enjoy.

Loved learning about this when I went on a field trip here when I was young! This ship is awesome for children and educational fun!

Great stop for the family. We went to check this out after visiting Plimoth Plantation. Amazing to see this ship and how the pilgrims traveled.

Staff loves getting into character. Pilgrims loved beer.

It was ok but obviously cant compare to having the Mayflower here.

The ship is gone for 2 years. It would be nice if this was on the web site instead of saying open until 5.

No Mayflower 2, which was the purpose of the trip.

Its OK by itself. For a good experience, do Plymouth Plantation and the Mayflower together. A good alternative to the Mayflower is the USS Constitution in Boston.

On a cross country road trip and drove out to Plymouth to see the Mayflower but shes not even here. Dont rely on Google to say this is open and just show up like I did, when they are closed and the ship is gone.

My great memory of Plymouth. Sincerely appreciate.

Very enjoyable with actors in period costumes. Its amazing to see the ships scale up close and realize what they accomplished in it.

It is out for maintenance and wont be back until 2019 as I heard on May 19, 2017. Check before you go.

This makes learning fun for KIDS and will want to learn more and more you can ask qs and they LOVE to answer so take your kids out of school and GO is worth every bit and will make your kids or child be smarter then the class put all together:)

Really cool tour. Amazing that they have something like this to go see!

Fun to see the history here. Beautiful in the spring/summer.

The actors did a really good job- 8yo kid on a field trip

Just awesome. The history, the views, the location. Also, dont miss Plimoth Plantation.

Cool to see it and everybody should but its a boat and not much to do, people were friendly.

Awesome views and relaxing walk around the shop. Good spot for pics

Impressive boat but too commercialized and way to crowded to enjoy.

Very nice experience, the actors really play their role well, worth a visit.

I would suggest to all to take this tour and see what people would go trough in order to get a better life!

Pilgrimage history

Didnt take the tour, only saw it from the outside. Beautiful ship!

Love Plymouth lots of great places to go and see great attractions.

Tour of the Mayflower II was enjoyable.

Very historic.

The Mayflower was surprisingly small.

I enjoyed it here.

Cute little gift shops and nice replica of the (surprisingly small!) Mayflower.

It was a rainy day on a small boat. The actor/historians are good, its just kind of a small boat.

What an awesome experience. The Mayflower II is a must visit.

Family fun 4th of July!

Must visit. Cool walk full of history.

The ship is not there until 2018. Didnt see anything about it online when we looked it up before hand.

Unfortunately the ship is currently in restauration !!!

Hes amazing

Very educational tour with character actors.
