Hello! I am lucky to be a tour guide, professional photographer and innkeeper in this very special...

Sit back, relax and let me introduce you to the history and unique beauty of our City by the Sea. It's easy to be overwhelmed in choosing what to do while in Newport. First time visitors should see the Ocean Drive, the mansions, and the many historic points of interest. As a local, I know the popular spots as well as the hidden gems. Once I know a little bit about you, I can better tailor the tour to your particular interests. As an artist, I enjoy being surrounded by the beauty and culinary offerings of Newport and love sharing it with others. Whether you're interested in the best pint of Guinness at a local Irish pub or the oldest historic house in Newport, this tour covers it all. During our driving tour, I will point out the local attractions, scenic and historic. We'll ride down historic Bellevue Avenue and peek into places such as the architecturally significant Tennis Hall of Fame where many famous tennis players have slammed their way to victory on the grass courts.
The 4-hour tour begins at your hotel. Mansion tour tickets are included. Our travels will introduce you to the many architectural gems of Newport including but not limited to: * The International Tennis Hall of Fame * Redwood Library, the oldest lending library in the U. S. * Touro Synagogue, America's oldest synagogue *The Newport Gilded Age Mansion tour. (I will drop you off for the self-guided tour and pick you up afterwards. ) * The American Shipyard with its dock full of million dollar sailing yachts * We will travel along the scenic 10-Mile Ocean Drive and stop at a 19 Century Lighthouse, if it is open at the time. I will purchase mansion tickets ahead of time for the date you will be here. I will drop you at the mansion gates for the 1. 5-hour, self-guided tour. I will pick you up outside after the tour. * (If time allows) we will drive to The Point section, the city's oldest neighborhood, with many fine examples of Colonial architecture. This neighborhood was first settled in the 1700s.

**I can safely accommodate 4 average size people in the backseat of my Kia Sportage. ( I go by covid guidelines and have had 3 vaccines ) and If you are 5-8 people, I CAN OBTAIN A RENTAL VEHICLE and ADJUST THE COST ACCORDINGLY which would add approximately $150 to the tour price.
