Parasols and Pocket Watches: A History Tour

Przegląd
Join us for this elegant stroll through time!

Allow our historically costumed, local guides to lead you down the most beautifully preserved street in all of Providence, RI- Benefit Street!

Guests will learn the history of some of Providence's most prominent residents and families, including the Dorr family, Roger Williams, and the Hoppin family. See architectural icons including the John Brown House, the First Baptist Church, the Fleur de Lys Building, and the original State House. Learn about the events that shaped our state and nation, including the suffrage movements (yes, there were two!) and the Civil War. This tour will leave you feeling more connected to the city's past and with a greater appreciation for Providence.

Benefit Street is a mostly flat street and is suitable for people of most levels of health and fitness.

Amazing! We were looking for an informative and engaging walking tour to supplement our visit to the John Brown House. Courtney was so friendly and knowledgeable; you can feel how passionate she is about Providence history. We love the stories she told of the Brown family and other prominent Rhode Islanders along Benefit Street, and she even added plenty of humor along the way. This is a great tour to make the most of a short weekend in Providence. Highly recommend and would love to come back in the summer when she does her boat tours!
