We have been to Newport several times but have never taken the Trolley tour. If you are a first time visitor, this is a great way. to see the highlights of the town, take in some beautiful scenery and learn a lot about its impressive history. Our driver Ray was a real pro and told some interesting stories. Very comfortable, clean coach and attentive customer service. The ninety minutes tour is more than sufficient to see most of what brought you to Newport in the first place.

we enjoyed the tour which took us to interesting historical sights that we didn't know about. I would recommend anyone who doesn't know much about Newport RI to take it. unfortunately, it was a rainy foggy day so the ocean views were fogged out so that was mother nature, however, it was freezing in the trolly because the driver had to turn up the AC and fans to keep the windows from fogging out. it was very uncomfortable.

Larry is very informative and he interesting stories to share. The mansions looked pretty, despite the fog and rainy conditions.

Very informative ride through Newport with historical information on colonial and modern times. Lots of focus on mansions and ownership. Our guide, Dominic, was very personable and kept us in high spirits throughout the tour.

Nice overview of the area. Good guide. Bus was comfortable unless you got the seat with the heater at your feet. Would recommend.
