Overview

Who better to tell the story of Newport's history and social and cultural scene than someone who has, and continues to be living the 'Newport life'?  What sets our Tours apart is that we provide a 'Native Newporter' as your guide and chaperone, with the lifelong experiences and knowledge only obtained from being born and raised and attending the City's public and private elementary Newportschools Newport. In short, we offer a clear, comprehensive, and fun experience of the "City-By-The-Sea".  Furthermore your Tour, your time...stops for photos and walking are not only included but encouraged as well.
