Great walk around town, our hotel was right on commercial street so we didn't have to mess with parking or any of that. Great shops, tasty food. Must must spend a day walking around!!!

Provincetown is a must destination if you are on Cape Cod. The very narrow main street is lined with all kinds of different shops and places to eat. People in town all seem to be very friendly and accommodating . We took our whale watch tour from here.

Being from Iowa, my wife and I seldom experience the diversity represented in this town. It was fun to walk the street, visit with everyone, have drinks and enjoy the town. Everyone was friendly and we had a great time. My 13 year old son was a little uncomfortable but it was great for him to see this sort of... More

Of all the towns on Cape Cod, this is the one I enjoyed the most! Very dog friendly. Lots of eclectic shops and eating opportunities. Great people-watching, too!

Commercial Street has a good balance of food, tourist shops, galleries and historical interest. There are some amazing food options which are reasonably priced and some tourist shops with unique items. The kite shop is fun with friendly staff. Overall, worth the visit.

I love Provincetown. Once of my favorite (daily) activities is a stroll up and down Commercial Street with my dog. Lots of shopping and many, many places to get a bite to eat or a cool (or hot) b beverage.

I could walk up and down this street all day and all night. The stores, the people, the food, the dogs.....every single thing I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE about it. You are smiled at, feel safe, whether it was 9am, or 2am. Everyone is friendly. Food smells fill the air. Ocean breeze all around you. Cannot wait to go back!!

I love seeing all the different people here, a great place to walk and explore the shops restaurants and galleries, lots of live music and interesting people chatting, the place has a soul all its own, the police are friendly just as long as you are. Do not drink and drive thats when the police are unfriendly.

Typical resort town Main Street. Goes on forever. More galleries than tshirt shops, which makes it better than average. Great ice cream at PTown Ice Cream. Loved the pizza at George's near town hall.
