What you get

    About this experience

    This is a fully private Southern Maine coastal experience designed exclusively for your party (2–5 guests). No bus groups. No shared travelers — just your group, your pace, and a relaxed day along Maine’s scenic shoreline. Visit historic York’s colonial landmarks, walk through the Old Burying Ground, and enjoy views from John Hancock Wharf before stopping at Cape Neddick Light, one of New England’s most photographed lighthouses. Continue to Ogunquit for time at Perkins Cove, with the option for a short scenic stroll along the Marginal Way overlooking the Atlantic. In Kennebunkport, enjoy unhurried time in Dock Square to browse shops, walk the harbor, and dine at a local restaurant of your choice. A scenic stop at The Colony Hotel adds classic New England charm and sweeping coastal views. Because this tour is private, the experience remains flexible and comfortable, allowing you to explore at your own pace and focus on the scenery and stories that interest you most.

    Perfect 🤩 tour for our annual Friends trip!

    We had a wonderful tour from Portland to Acadia with our wonderful guide AJ. He took us to LL Beans in Freeport , Camden, Bar Harbor and Acadia and back to Portland in one memorable day. AJ took us to some very special areas where the scenery and the meals were amazing. He provided snacks and drinks and frequent stops for photos and shopping and even acted as our personal photographer assuring that our memories of the trip were perfect. We would definitely use this touring company again . Many thanks from the “Fleetville 5” !

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much, “Fleetville 5”! It was an absolute joy to guide you from Portland to Acadia and to share some of Maine’s hidden gems and iconic sights along the way. I’m so glad the scenery and meals left a lasting impression and that you felt taken care of throughout the journey. From capturing photos to ensuring your comfort with snacks and stops, it was my pleasure to make the day as memorable as possible. Knowing you enjoyed it so much truly means the world, and I’d be thrilled to welcome you all back on another adventure anytime!

    Weekend in York, Maine

    The views were terrific. The beach was beautiful, and many people were enjoying it. Great weather. The hotel we stayed was very nice and across from the beach. There were a couple of restaurants within walking distance.

    Southern Maine Private Tour: Kennebunkport & Nubble Lighthouse: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Portland.

    How much does Southern Maine Private Tour: Kennebunkport & Nubble Lighthouse cost?

    +

    Prices start at $300 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Portland usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Southern Maine Private Tour: Kennebunkport & Nubble Lighthouse take?

    +

    Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Portland is not rushed.

    Is Southern Maine Private Tour: Kennebunkport & Nubble Lighthouse worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Portland, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Southern Maine Private Tour: Kennebunkport & Nubble Lighthouse?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Southern Maine Private Tour: Kennebunkport & Nubble Lighthouse suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Southern Maine Private Tour: Kennebunkport & Nubble Lighthouse?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Portland can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Portland and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Southern Maine Private Tour: Kennebunkport & Nubble Lighthouse start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Portland within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Portland?

    +

    Portland sells lighthouse and lobster-boat tours in Casco Bay, Old Port food and brewery walks, seal and puffin cruises, and fall foliage runs up the Maine coast. On Outty we rank every Portland experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Real Portland Tour: City and 3 Lighthouses Historical Tour with a Real Local, Portland, Maine: Hidden Histories Guided Walking Tour, A Walk Through Time Tour in Portland. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Portland?

    +

    June to October, with peak foliage in early October. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Portland?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
