Plymouth in July

We are planning a 2 day stay in Plymouth in July. We are doing the coloniel latern tour(Do i need resevations?), the Mayfower II and the plantation. Anything else we shouldn%26#39;t miss? Any cranberry big tours nearby?(I know it%26#39;s not the right season but i love cranberries!) Thanks so much!

Plymouth in July

Apparently the Ocean Spray factor is now outside of Las Vegas (this really cracks me up; it%26#39;s something we used to do about once a year when I was kid), but there is some kind of cranberry world in Plymouth, as described in this new york times QA:

There is, of course, Edaville, an old childhood favorite of many natives, with the Edaville Railroad and the cranberry bog there (in Carver, not far from Plymouth).

Hello! As was pointed out in a previous post, Cranberry World has indeed left Plymouth. Although Ocean Spray does also have an exhibit in Henderson, NV, it%26#39;s not the one that used to be in Plymouth. Edaville USA (also mentioned already) actually acquired the exhibits that were in the Plymouth Cranberry World, and is displaying them in their own museum. Bettyann certainly does Cranberry bog tours, but cranberries aren%26#39;t harvested until the autumn...so don%26#39;t count on seeing any red berries floating on water like in the pictures...as you already pointed out.

It%26#39;s a good idea to make reservations ahead of time for the evening lantern tours to give them an idea of how many people to expect for the night. The Mayflower II and PLantation are excellent choices, just leave yourself enough time for them....probably anywhere from 3-5 hours for both. Pilgrim Hall Museum is also a good place to stop. They are currently going through a huge upgrade to the museum and will be featuring even more original artifacts then they already have. Also make sure you find the time to see some of the historic houses and enjoy some of the water based activities (ie whale watching, paddlewheeler harbor cruises, lobster excursions).

You%26#39;ll probebly find you won%26#39;t have enough time to do everything, so pick the things you don%26#39;t want to miss ahead of time and you%26#39;ll do fine! Have fun!

Hi - check out this link to Flax Pond Farms. They do cranberry bog tours from May to Sept. They have a really cute barn type of store with an old working cranberry sorter machine inside. I think you will enjoy it there - we live in Plymouth and make a few trips out there each fall just to go to the store and our family enjoys going there too. If I can answer any other questions please let me know.
