Newport mansion tour
This trolley tour is the perfect way to see Newport! We were lucky to have Jim as our guide. He was very knowledgeable about the area. He made everyone laugh as well! Would highly recommend for people who are new to the area or if you’ve just never done a tour before!

Mansions tour with Marble House
Great tour. The trolley was a great way to see a lot of things without having to do the driving. Guide/driver was excellent and had a lot of stories and information. Marble House was awesome.
