Wednesday, November 18
We will mark the anniversary of the landing of the Pilgrims on the ground where it all took place—in Plymouth, Massachusetts. We will walk the streets, ship decks and cemeteries, telling the stories of those 104 souls that arrived in the winter of 1620 and the profound legacy they left for us.
Thursday, November 19
We will go to the Forefathers Monument, the best kept 81-foot-tall solid granite secret in Plymouth, and out to nearby Duxbury where John and Priscilla Alden established a church plant as the Gospel took root and began to spread throughout the area. Courageous Miles Standish kept law and order in the early years and is buried alongside the Aldens in Duxbury.
Friday, November 20
Probably the best “living history” venue we have experienced. The site is superbly crafted, transporting you back to 1627 and the reenactors are fantastic. The people you will meet are living in the year 1627. They don’t know anything beyond that year, but they are incredibly well versed in their character and the time period so conversations with these Pilgrim is both entertaining and educational.

Our window of opportunity is tight—we need 30 people registered by October 1st to secure Plimoth Pawtuxet for their fantastic period Pilgrim Feast, where we will enjoy the foods our forefathers ate when they celebrated Thanksgiving those first years! This trip to priced sell and with the friendly hotel rates we secured there is a significant savings from previous tours. The tide is rising so make plans today to join us in Plymouth!
or 25 years, hundreds of thousands of people from all walks of life have traveled to the historic Plymouth Harbor and Waterfront to experience a bounty of authentic Americana. The celebration of Thanksgiving becomes history-brought-to-life as Pilgrims, Native Americans, Soldiers, Patriots, and Pioneers proudly climb out of the history books and onto the streets of Plymouth. The perfect way to cap off the week.
They’ve stolen our history—we’re taking it back!
Two days of the Official Plymouth 400th Anniversary Tours will be led primarily by local Native American guides who, based on a fictitious view of history, mourn the Pilgrims arrival, describing it as the initiation of genocide on their people and theft of their land. Our tour is based on source documents and will take a different route, traveling to sites like the Mashpee Meeting House, where grateful Natives first converted under Richard Bourne have been preaching the gospel continuously for almost 400 years.
