Welcome to Newport! I am a local historian and 10th-generation Rhode Islander eager to show you this beautiful state. Whether you're here to uncover the city's rich history or bask on our sunny beaches, I'm eager to show you Newport's iconic landmarks and hidden gems of the city. 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. Together, we'll create unforgettable memories as we delve into the vibrant culture and history of the region. All tours are easily customizable to your interests and transportation preferences– please feel free to send me a message!

    Sophie is excellent and we had a great time seeing Newport through her eyes. She is articulate and accommodating, and certainly brings her architectural knowledge to bear to bring the places you see to life! Perfect way to start our Newport vacay!

    Great tour with Sophie. It was my first day in Newport and all the beautiful places we saw and the background info made the rest of my visit much richer. In addition to her wealth of knowledge, Sophie is very nice and easy to get along with. I highly recommend her!!!

    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!
