Excellent tour guide!...
Excellent tour guide! (Russ) loved learning about the mansions & the history & interesting facts about Newport.
Loved seeing the mansions and hearing about the history!
We saw so much we would have missed on foot. Great driver/tour operator great tips and good sense of humor!!! Perfect weather left on time and returned timely. So much fun!
Highly recommend…
Fantastic tour of Newport…our guide Russ was beyond outstanding…friendly, informative, professional and witty…would strongly suggest this tour company and especially this tour guide.
Thoroughly enjoyed the tour!
We had a great time. We've done trolley tours three times before, every time we have friends and family visiting, and we live in Westerly. This time our friends from Takoma Park, MD were delighted with the whole experience, from our entertaining driver to getting an overview of Newport on their first time there.
Tour Guide Made This Awesome
It was fantastic. Our operator was so knowledgeable and entertaining. Been on many tours all over US. This was the best tour guide ever. (His name is escaping me but he had Brazilian roots believed it or not! ). Thank you.
