This was a very good... - This was a very good tour. Our guide provided was very enthusiastic, and he provided us with great information regarding Rhode Island’s role in the formation of America, including the American Revolution, the industrial period and the gilded age. My only constructive feedback is that both Apple and Google Maps could not pinpoint the exact tour meeting point location. Fortunately, the onsite representative called to locate me, and I could actually see him a block away from me.

The guide is a good host and a passionate storyteller. He has a lot of background knowledge and comes across as professional and cordial. The bus is comfortable. We were a small group of travelers. The tempo was relaxed adapted to the group. I learned a lot about the area and really enjoyed the day. Next time book I will book here again!

Great way to see Rhode Island - I was in Providence for a few nights and thought this was a great way to see the state of RI in a day. Ted, our guide and driver, was excellent. His enthusiasm for RI shone through and he made the group feel at home and come together. He is a naturally gifted speaker able to bring his subject alive and making the trip both informative and fun. This is a great way to get a taste of what the state has to offer. Very comfortable bus too.
