We had an excellent time in this “trolley” tour of Newport’s historic homes with tours of Marble House and the Breakers. Our driver/guide was a wealth of historical information having grown up in Newport. He was in the building trades so knew a lot about the architecture as well as the history. Saw the church where the Kennedy’s were married as well as mansions built by the Campbells soup heir and many many others. He drops us off for self guided audio tours of the two mansions (and wow, the Breakers is even more impressive than the all-marble Marble House. The trolley is actually air conditioned - which was a Godsend on a warm day. Highly recommend this tour for anyone who loves history, architecture and/or great storytelling.

We really enjoyed our Viking Tour. Our tour guide was superb and shared such valuable, interesting information. We only wish we had more time to see the "cottages" slowly to take many photos. As time did not permit him to go slower, we still certainly enjoyed viewing the Life of the Rich and Famous! Thank you and please thanks him. He should make an audio tape to sell via your company. With royalties going to him also, Thanks again! The Thibodeaus
