    Our Tour Guide was fun and had a winning personality !! He was also so informative!!! Loved the history!!!

    Tim gave us so much interesting Newport gangster history. He is the best tour guide we have had on a tour, even better that he had worked in this area for years and threw in some personal stories! He really made the era come alive and kept us interested & entertained for the entire 2+ hours. He was dressed as a gangster and we started and ended at the Gangster Dueling Piano Bar. Perfect!

  3. Brad_A

    Lots of stories but not much to see at all. The guide was entertaining but it dragged a bit with nothing to look at.

  4. LaSabra_H

    The entire tour was amazing. My husband grew up in Newport. The tour and Kevin (our guide) brought back some great memories for us.

    The tour guide was very knowledgeable about Newport gangster history. Extremely hot and humid. Be more mindful of speaking in shaded areas when possible.

    Learning which buildings were actual casinos. I also liked hearing about the transitions of the Beverely Hills.
