We agree - it's pretty amazing all that Roger Williams contributed to Rhode Island and the foundation of America!
...and Iggy's Doughboys are hard to beat!
So glad you enjoyed the tour. We look forward to seeing you on your next trip out!

A Day of Firsts
Dave_H, July 2021
We spent our first full day in Rhode Island — of our very first visit to the state — on this tour. It proved to be a great choice! We particularly enjoyed experiencing our first exposure to the mindset and contributions of Roger Williams to Rhode Island and, more broadly, to the birth of our nation. A very informative and pleasant introduction to Rhode Island!
Response from Host, July 2021

Thank you for the review!

Ted was an excellent guide. He was a great storyteller and had the ability to quote passages from speeches and various other historical facts. He interacted with the tour group continually with statistics and facts that kept you thinking and entertained throughout the trip. Tour highly recommended.
