I took my very first trip to Newport and decided that the Newport Foodies Stroll was a great way to eat my way through town while also getting to sight see. This "stroll" more than met my expectations!! The food at every stop was beyond amazing and I really loved that there was such a variety in the different types of cuisines and restaurants that Sue and Tom took us to. I also really liked that we go to learn some of the history of Newport and even stop at one of the mansions along the way. Sue and Tom were phenomenal and accommodating hosts and really made the stroll that much better. The amount of food that was given during the tour was more than enough and I even found myself thankful there was a good amount of walking so I was able to make room for the next stop! Will definitely be back again!

Sue & Tom were great hosts and guides for a tour through a city filled with history and great food! The food stops were all delicious local restaurants that would take a local to find. Between food stops, Sue & Tom walked me around town to show off some of Newport's most historic sites including a brief stop at one of the famed Newport mansions. Thanks for a great tour!

I went on the Newport Foodie Stroll with a bunch of my girlfriends. We take a trip every year, and this year we tried Newport. The Newport Foodie Stroll was the highlight of our weekend! We loved hearing the history of this beautiful town, and the food was phenomenal - even the picky eaters in our group gobbled up every bite. I highly recommend this experience to anyone who loves scrumptious food and having their mind expanded by expert tour guides!
