Our unique and immersive tours will go beyond the guidebooks with little-known histories, insider recommendations, and a personal understanding of how Rhode Island's history has shaped its present. As a PhD student in architectural history, I bring academic passion to the city along with my personal experience.

Sophie gave us a wonderful tour of Newport including time to tour The Breakers. She is very knowledgeable, a great historian, and a super guide! We would use her again if we return to Newport!
