The town is tightly built and parking is very limited. Letting them do the driving and the narration is the best way to do this. I can highly recommend them. Touring The Breakers was awesome. It is so much smaller but grander than Biltmore in Ash...
Seeing NewPort by trolley is the way to go. The town is tightly built and parking is very limited. Letting them do the driving and the narration is the best way to do this. I can highly recommend them. Touring The Breakers was awesome. It is so much smaller but grander than Biltmore in Asheville. Both designed by the same architect and opened in the same year of the two Vanderbilt brothers, George and Cornelius II. Lovely to see both.Tour guide was very knowledgeable and informative, not only the historical aspects but the gossip too. A great way to get an overview of the history of Newport as well as the mansions and the people who lived (and live) there.
