Overview

Discover the rich African American history of Martha’s Vineyard on this 3-hour private tour.

You'll stop by many points of interest, each one of them filled with history. At North Road, you'll hear about Rebecca Amos, her daughter Nancy and great-grandson William Martin. In Menemsha, you’ll hear about the Wampanoag’s helping slaves escape. And in Edgartown, you'll hear more about Nancy and William Martin and the Chappaquiddick Plantation. Finally, you'll hear about the Overton House and its connection to the Civil Rights movement.
