Educational tour
Dennis_S, Oct 2022
The tour was fantastic. The tour director was so knowledgable with a wonderful sense of humor. He was a excellent driver negotiating through the narrow streets. Not only was he good at what I described, he used his umbrella to keep us dry. Jared was our tour guide.

I live in CT. We drove thru Providence many times, but never stopped. We had some time, so I thought this would be a good idea. We learned much from our guide. We also went to a great bakery. This was a very good trip.

Our driver/guide, Joe, was very friendly! He pointed out all the important sites, gave us the background/history. We stopped at a few locations and he made it very clear on when to be back and gave us suggestions at each. I highly recommend this tour for the beginning of your trip to Providence. We wanted to revisit each site for longer afterwards. Thank you!
