Good Time - Bring a jacket or sweatshirt on the tour because it can get a bit chilly out at the dunes. Nice tour!

A great tour! - Trolley tour was VERY informative & interesting. Drove from one end of Commercial St to the other & to the National Seashore, Great historical info that I just didn’t know about. Fabulous way to learn your way around for a first time visitor. Highly recommended.

Stress Free Peek at P. Town - THE ABSOLUTE BEST WAY TO SEE PROVIDENCE TOWN. Streets are tight and crowded. I do not exaggerate when I say there is an inch clearance between our side view mirrors and another car, biker or pedestrian. Taking the trolly allows you to RELAX and enjoy the sights, hear the local history and current events narrated in a very funny, engaging and entertaining way. Local hot spots are pointed out for best, drinks, water views over a meal and where to enjoy a party spot should you desire. Locals were involved playing a fisherman at his native home, commerative plaques and the process of how houses were built on a literal sandy beach and relocated. I will not give details and spoil YOUR fun. A 10 out of 10 must experience. Shout out to our tour guide (she was awesome) and our bike/uber person.

NO REGRETS. Really enjoyed it. - We had our doubts. We typically do not enjoy "group tours" of this kind... but we went for it and NO REGRETS. We loved it. Learned a lot that we would never have otherwise. And the guide was amazing.

Ehh - Very hard to hear tour guide if you are in the back. We literally had no clue what she was saying. I basically felt lost the entire tour. It was more like a nice Sunday car ride.
