Tom and Susan are fabulous hosts of this foodie tour. We had a great time! All three restaurants were excellent; we especially enjoyed the Italian restaurant, Vieste. We had a delicious appetizer and wine there and then had two other stops for main course and desert. The flourless chocolate and port were amazing. And we met such interesting people on the tour. Overall, a fantastic evening. Highly recommend the Newport Foodie Stroll! A “must do” when visiting Newport.

This tour is a MUST do if you come to Newport!! When planning our trip to Newport, I felt overwhelmed by the number of restaurants and food options in the area - so many places with so many amazing reviews! This was a perfect way to experience 3 incredible (yet extremely different) restaurants. The food selections were all delicious and the wine pairings made it that much better. I can’t say enough good things about Tom and Susan. They are so passionate and care so deeply about what they do and making this a memorable experience for all of their guests. They are so knowledgeable and you couldn’t ask for better tour guides to take you through Newport. I also want to add, our group was AWESOME. We arrived as strangers and left as friends! Our group spent the rest of the night together even after the tour was over. It was such a special night and a wonderful way to eat and drink through Newport!!

What a wonderful evening with friends on this fun tour! This tour, like the Newport Foodies Stroll we did during the summer, did not disappoint. From the delicious arancini and bruschetta at Vieste, to the fabulous swordfish at Midtown Oyster Bar, and finally an incredible dessert sampler at Bar and Board Bistro, all paired with wine that beautifully complimented each course, made for a lovely evening! Highly recommend these tours. Tom and Sue are terrific hosts and it’s great to spend time with them!
