We loved our trolley tour of Newport. Dominic was a lovely tour guide and his passion for history was appreciated. Honestly, it would have been impossible to to gain an appreciation of all the details on our own. My only wish was that other passengers were as interested in the tour as we were because they over-talked him. Still, I would love to do it again and for the cost—it is well worth it! Great entertainment!H623ZFcarolynt

It's also a great activity if you had a long night and want a low effort but fun and beautiful activity the next day! The trolley was comfortable and the John drove very carefully and didn't rush anything! Its perfect for all ages and events!Charles_D
