Tom the Tour guide was great! Informative tour and interesting mansion Only negative was that there was no one to ask where to pick up our trolley at the Transportation Center
Very informative. The Breakers mansion was soo impressive!
Trolley was great Breakers eh
It was an absolutely must see tour. Ray, our tour guide, was raised in Newport, so he added so much knowledge and many insights that we never would have known. The tour was incredible, scenery was gorgeous. The mansions were incredible. Don’t miss this tour!!! Trolley tour and Breaker Mansion.
Wonderful. Our tour guide Dominic was great! Learned so many historical facts, and the views were spectacular
Loved the commentary of the city and the mansions. Some were hard to see from the trolley. The Vanderbilt Mansion tour was worth it.
Ray gave the best tour with tons of local knowledge and facts. It was a great way to see Newport and find some hidden gems!
This was an excellent tour. Our guide was witty and knowledgeable. We enjoyed the whole tour. We learned a lot and had a great time
Great way to get an overview of the area. Ray, our driver, gave us lots of information. He grew up in the area, so had many interesting stories.
Great tour of the Newport area and especially the "summer cottages". Guide was very knowledgeable. Enjoyed all the stops. Only negative was the guide talked really fast and we had a hard time hearing/understanding him at times. We did wish we could spend more that 1 day in Newport to see everything!
