    We enjoyed a wonderful walk and introduction to downtown Newport with Erin. It was just the right amount of important historical facts & juicy storytelling to gain a nice understanding of the original settlement period and the financial wealth to follow. Erin is a consummate guide and narrator. Wish we could take her with on every trip!

    This was an excellent walking tour of historic Newport with Jeff. It was organized starting with the map at the Museum of Newport History and additional stops at Trinity Church, Touro Synagogue, Redwood Library, Quaker House, White Horse Tavern and mor along Bellevue Avenue. Jeff explained the history at each stop with interesting anecdotes along the way. This walking tour is highly recommended.

    I have done great self-guided tours, but nothing can replace a seasoned tour guide personally taking you around a city. Erin showed me the best of Newport. I especially loved Thames Street where she also recommended some great places to eat. Erin is very knowledgeable and is a lot of fun too. I highly recommend taking her tour!!!

    Walking would have been perfect but not feasible to see both Providence and Newport. Erin scheduled the perfect day for me. Her advance communication put my mind at ease. The meeting point was spot on and she arrived early. Her knowledge of the areas I wanted to see and experience was exactly what I wanted. If I wanted to see it, she showed me. If I wanted her to change the schedule, she adjusted it. If I didn't know where to eat, she made suggestions. And it was so nice she joined me for meals when I insisted. Many guides want a few minutes alone to unwind when dealing with tourists, but I didn't believe Erin wanted it. Our rooftop restaurant at day's end was the perfect ending for the day. As a travel guide, Erin earns Five 🌟. She is highly recommended.
