I really enjoyed and highly recommend this tour! This was a lovely stroll along Benefit Street and my tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic - she answered every single question we had, and we even got an extra 15 minutes on our tour. The sights were lovely and Providence has a rich history - don't miss out on this opportunity to learn a little about it, hear some incredible stories, and check out some very unique architecture!
