Very informative tour
Great tour of Newport and the mansions. Our guide, Tom, was a native of Newport and had lots of great facts to share on our ride to the Marble House.

Great way to tour Newport!
It was a great way to see so much history of Newport and cover a lot of ground! There were so many extravagant mansions, it was so nice to get the stores behind so many of them! You have to do one of the mansion tours (either the Breakers or the Marble House, you definitely want to go inside!)

Mansion Trolley Tour
If you decide to take this tour be prepared to do a lot of stair climbing at the mansions and plan accordingly.
