We have done the Rhode island in a day tour and it is a great way to experience the state and very informative. John was an excellent and knowledgeable guide. As a couple visiting from the UK we would recommend this tour.

Great tour We learned a lot about Providence on this tour. Ted was very knowledgeable about the history and facts of the city. He not only talked about our stops but shared history in between the stops. He also had an amazing memory of where his passengers were from and quizzed and scored them during the tour - yea NY!Thanks Ted for a great tour.

We used Experience RI's shuttle for transporting guests at our wedding this past weekend and I cannot recommend them enough. Our previous shuttle company cancelled on us 2 weeks before the wedding. We were panicked but so happy we found Experience RI. Buddy was the main point of contact throughout the process, he was incredible and made us feel at ease. Another bonus is that they do not have a minimum amount of hours you need to book like most other companies.

Pleasant tour We were looking for something to do in Providence and decided to take the Discover Providence Guided Sightseeing Tour. There is no parking close to where the tour begins so we did not get to the bus until 5 minutes before the tour began. Once we were on the bus, things went well. We enjoyed the guide's narrative and the stops were also great.

Our driver and guide Phil was fabulous! In addition to knowing the area well, he is a great storyteller. Phil is proud of his RI heritage and has a sense of humor about its small/big size. We had a fine time on this tour, learned a lot, and appreciate the opportunity to see this interesting city.

We were blown away by this company. From the very start they were professional, organized, and courteous. We rented a few private shuttles for transportation to our ceremony location and back to our venue, as well as bringing guests home to hotels at the end of the night. Their prices were fair, drivers were responsive and professional, and the shuttles were clean, well air conditioned, and even allowed us to play music and bring refreshments. Would highly recommend to anyone!

Fun tour in Providence The excursion was just the right length. Enjoyed visiting the different neighborhoods in Providence. Stopping at the bakery in the Italian area of town was fun and the pastry was wonderful. The Italian history info was very interesting. Tour size was good and the guide was great.

Ted was so knowledgable of the area and kept us entertained the whole time. The hours flew by as he showed us such interesting facts about Rhode Island. This is a perfect way to see the state if you cannot spend a lot of time here to explore yourself. Just show up and let them tell you the history and fun facts. Will definitely look into other tours when we return to the region.

Informative inexpensive tour! This was a last minute decision by us, we were in Providence for a couple of days and we felt like this would give us a chance to see as much of the city as possible in a couple of hours. Our guides name was Phil, he did an excellent job educating our group on the city and its history. He also provided us with a dinner spot on Federal Hill that proved to be very good. Money well spent to learn about the Ocean state.

Providence City Tour is a Must-Do for new visitors to Providence! The Providence City Tour was excellent. Our tour guide was very informative and told us many interesting and amusing stories about the history of Providence. The tour took us to the key points of interest in the City, giving us a few minutes at selected locations to take pictures and look around. We recommend this tour highly to tourists who have not been to Providence before and only have a few days to tour the area.

Great introductory tour for first-time visitors to Providence! Great tour facilitated by Phil! Phil was impressive. He explained everything about Providence’s rich history in the culinary arts, culture, design/architecture, and other historical aspects that make the city so intriguing and memorable. He and Brayden were also accommodating to me in that I got lost and Brayden had Phil to come and pick me up in the early part of the tour. I was really appreciative of them going out of their way to come and get me and make sure I could experience the tour. Phil definitely covered every inch of the city and offered unique insights and perspective in his history lesson given to us. Everyone enjoyed it! The experiences along Atwells Avenue (Federal Hill), Riverwalk, Prospect Terrace (Roger Williams Statue), & Fox Point were very interesting. Phil really knows his history about Providence and is great at explaining everything about what the city is known for and has evolved over time. He was great! I am really glad I got a chance to experience this tour with this company. It was definitely one of the highlights of my visit and will do it again with my family upon my next return to Providence.

Martha’s Vineyard Experience. Our trip to Martha’s Vineyard was amazing. Our tour guide Brayden was knowledgeable and personable. He went beyond expectations to care for everyone on the trip from running to get ice when a woman fell to going to get lunch for a woman who had difficulty walking. He went above and beyond expectations. Brayden told stories for all the major sights and had recommendations for what to see and where to eat when we were on our own. I highly recommend this trip. Great company. Great tour guide. It was a lovely day.

Great way to see Rhode Island I was in Providence for a few nights and thought this was a great way to see the state of RI in a day. Ted, our guide and driver, was excellent. His enthusiasm for RI shone through and he made the group feel at home and come together. He is a naturally gifted speaker able to bring his subject alive and making the trip both informative and fun. This is a great way to get a taste of what the state has to offer. Very comfortable bus too.

awesome experience The tour guide was very knowledgeable about history and geography of Rhode Island and presented it all in a stimulating and entertaining fashion (some parts were a little too religious to my taste). I should've brought a notebook to write some named and facts down as it's hard to remember them all. Rhode Island is beautiful and it was a day well spent and remembered fondly.

We participated in the Rhode Island in a Day tour and couldn’t recommend it more. While an eight-hour tour might sound daunting at first, this experience is truly amazing to see an entire state in just one day. Every stop felt intentional, well-paced, and offered a unique glimpse into Rhode Island’s charm and character. The tour was not only engaging but also genuinely educational. You learn about Rhode Island’s history, U.S. history, and local culture while enjoying beautiful views throughout the day. Our guide, Ted, did a fantastic job keeping the day informative and fun all at the same time. We believe the tour would deepen appreciation for both locals and visitors as it shows the pride and passion of Rhode Island.
