Newport Tour & Bay Cruise

About This Tour

Join us for a wonderful land and water excursion to Rhode Island’s spectacular city by the sea! For the first half of the day, we will provide you with a fascinating guided tour of Newport. On the tour, we will take you to the most beautiful and significant places in the town, tell you about its most famous citizens, give you ample opportunities to explore and take pictures, and show you all there is for you to see and do. Then, you will have the second half of the day to go off and enjoy Newport on your own, as we provide you with a hop on/hop off shuttle service to wherever you would like to go! At the end of the day, you will board the Seastreak ferry for a gorgeous one-hour ride up Narragansett Bay past several islands and lighthouses as you make your way back into Providence!
