History and Haunts - Do it! - Our tour guide Cait was phenomenal. She was knowledgeable, friendly, charismatic, patient, and humorous. We learned so much about the properties on the tour but also Cait gave us some personal stories. I highly recommend this tour and Cait. You won’t be disappointed. (Also use the restroom before you go, there are none along the tour).

Fantastic tour - We had a fantastic tour with our guide Leo. Leo was very engaging and a masterful narrator and brought the stories to life. Highly recommended tour. If you are in Providence for just a day and can do just 1 tour, make this the tour you do …simply outstanding !
