Just in it’s second season of offering a unique perspective to Plymouth history, Native Plymouth Tours has been distinguished by Yankee Magazine in the 2011 Travel Guide to New England with an exclusive “Editor’s Choice” award in the Best of New England issue.
Tim Turner, who launched Native Plymouth Tours in April of 2010 with his brother Tom Turner, was as surprised as he was honored to receive the Best Native American Point of View award from the magazine that has been dedicated to enhancing the New England experience for more than 75 years.
“Receiving the award was totally out of the blue. I didn’t realize how big of a deal it was until the phone calls started. It seems like everybody reads Yankee Magazine,” said Tim Turner, a member of the Cherokee Nation who has lived in Plymouth all of his life. “I think this is going to raise awareness of our tours and that there is an opportunity for local residents and tourists to learn the other side to the story.”

Native Plymouth Tours has been recognized as a 2011 “Editors’ Choice” winner in Yankee Magazine’s Travel Guide to New England, on newsstands now. This designation is awarded by Yankee’s editors and contributors, who name select restaurants, lodgings, and attractions in New England to the exclusive list. For 35 years, Yankee Magazine’s Travel Guide to New England has been the most widely distributed and best-selling guide to the six-state region, providing readers with a comprehensive vacation-planning tool and daily reference.
We’re thrilled to have received this award. Our mission is to provide an overview of Plymouth that many visitors don’t get to see — that of a Native perspective. Whether we’re on a tour or in your classroom, you’re sure to have a compelling, memorable and fun experience.
“Our ‘Best of New England’ issue is about where we live and play and raise our families. These places happen to be the cities and villages, the beaches, mountains, and forests, where visitors from around the world come to spend precious vacation days,” says editor Mel Allen. “We’ve filled our pages with the places we want to see, and have seen, and will see again. Immerse yourself in these places to visit, as beautiful as any in the world, plus more than 250 ‘Bests,’ our recommendations for inns, shopping, sights, restaurants, adventures, and what-have-you.”
The 2011 Travel Guide features 288 “Best of New England — Editors’ Choice” selections, which include the region’s best dining and lodging venues, attractions, adventures, local secrets, and bargains. This special issue also names 120 top events around the region. In the food section, follow six different trails that spotlight region-specific culinary legacies, including burgers in Connecticut, lobster rolls in Maine, chowder in Massachusetts, ice cream in New Hampshire, stuffed clams in Rhode Island, and cheddar cheese in Vermont. Plus, Yankee’s contributors map out trails for arts shopping, antiquing, birding, hiking, biking, and paddling along New England’s favorite byways.
