Sheila Bareiss

Our tour guide was incredible! I found the number of details that he had stored in his brain amazing along with his sense of humor. I said to my husband on the way to the tour,that the only thing I knew about Rhode Island was that it is the smallest state in the country,and one of the original thirteen colonies. Well our guide Phil expanded on my inadequate knowledge from elementary school. He covered all the bases the historical,academic,cultural,and famous celebrities. It was the best 75 dollars I spent in a long time! I would highly recommend it to anyone as a starter experience about Rhode Island as a state and Province as a city,so they can return to experience all that it has to offer in depth. Thank you for such a pleasant,informative,and well coordinated tour.

WANDA R. MORTON

Fantastic "Experience Rhode Island Tours", Phil (the tour guide, no Phil was our private concierge , Professor of travel in Providence) Phil was phenomenal. Phil took us everywhere we needed to go with great knowledge, history, little known facts, humor and just a great trip to see and experience areas we would not have seen. Take the Experience Rhode Island Tour today, you'll definitely be pleased. Thank you so much Phil for an exceptional tour, your guidance was awesome and keeping us engaged by your questions. We also had the pleasure of having a great group of people that day 7/13/22. We met a really wonderful, very personable couple from Iowa soon to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary praise God, what a blessing, congratulations. "Experience Rhode Island Tour" it's the best!

Amanda Carroll

What a great way to see so much of the state in a a single day! Our tour guide, Ted, was super knowledgeable about local history, as well as places to see, shop, eat, and stay; and he made the whole trip fun and engaging. He pointed out a good variety of points of interest, from natural beauty to historical significance. My husband and I loved that this tour gave us a quick overview of a lot of the great things to see outside of Providence, and it helped us plan the rest of our trip by providing a good first look at the state. I liked that we got a bit of time to explore something on our own in Newport, and that we had ample opportunities to get out for a minute or two to stretch, take a bathroom break, or shoot some pictures of a particular location. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking for a jumpstart to their time in Rhode Island!

Mara Argel

Our guide,Ted, was very knowledgeable with trivia and facts about Rhode Island. He entertained us with life experience anecdotes which made the trip interesting and time fly fast. The trip was fun. We went to the southern part of the state along the coastline, seeing the different beaches, lighthouses and grand houses. We got to taste doughboy and home made ice cream as well as gave lunch in a cozy restaurant. Who would have thought that llamas, peahen, camel and alpaca can be found in a lavender farm that is not a zoo. Scenic Rhode Island tour was worth the time. I do not think we would have found some of the places we visited on our own

Lisa Mauri Thomas

Enjoyed the tour of Providence immensely. Can follow the driver's narration easily. Adults of all ages on the tour, really nice diverse group. Tour bus stops in several locations so you can explore further. Ill go again!

Emma Toussenel

This tour was organised by the graduate council at Brown and it did not disappoint. Our tour guide has lived in RI for the majority of his life and thus had some insight into all the great restaurants, events, and even the history/drama with parts of Providence. The tour lasted about 1.5 hours and covered the majority if not all of Providence. There were multiple stopping points to get out and take photos or stretch your legs. For anyone visiting RI, I strongly recommend taking a tour with this company!

Jodi Hancock

This was a fantastic tour of Rhode Island! Our tour guide, Ted was extremely knowledgeable on facts and history. He was outstanding and made the all day tour fly by with lots of entertainment. We learned so much about this beautiful state and saw many wonderful places. The beaches to the rocky cliffs to the mansions and ‘summer homes’ on Ocean Drive to the church where Jackie and JFK married to the Colonial area and so much more! This is a must do tour!!

Margaret Razook

Nice overview of the city’s history and sights. Loved that we were able to get out 3 times. Was able to buy 3 of the “only in Rhode Island” items on my list - pepper biscuits, red wine biscuits, and Del’s frozen lemonade. All quite delicious! Would highly recommend for those with little time to explore on their own, or those who are uncomfortable driving in an unfamiliar city.

Diane Pierce

What a wonderful tour. We spent 2 days Rhode Island tour and the Autumn tour. Both days exceptional. Ted gave the history of RI, and other Bits of information. The history on Roger Williams woven with the gospel message was superb! I would highly recommend this tour to anyone.

theodore brna

Amazing tour provided by Ted on this 2 hour bus experience He not only remembered the home bases of all 25 people on the tour, but gave an entertaining, well organized and inclusive presentation of Providence (and Rhode Island) history including founders, historic buildings, regions, restaurants, and events. My wife and I do many tours and he certainly gave one of the BEST we have ever been on.

Phil Cannistraci

Block Island is beautiful and going with Ted made it so enjoyable. He took us all around the island so we got to see so much more than we ever would have by ourselves. He then drove us where we wanted to go and picked us up later. Didn't have to worry about renting bikes or taxi or anything else! We were able to do what a wanted. A perfect personal touch!

Krystal Branson

My bud and I did the Providence Rhode Island tour. John was an amazing guide. He was funny and had a lot of interesting facts and history of the town of Providence. He let us off at some cool parts of the city to sight see and take pictures. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone!

Dee Bullard

Such a fun experience! Excellent tour guide, tons of personality! Definitely recommend!

Donna Wallace

My husband and I wound up directionally challenged and walked two blocks in a soaking downpour in the opposite direction of the pickup point. We were struggling to get back to our car, giving up on the tour location, when the owner providentially pulled up beside us at a traffic light! He warmly welcomed us aboard, even though we were dripping wet, and led us on a wonderful tour of his beloved city. We had several interesting stops that clearly would've enticed anyone searching for a new place to live to choose Providence! My only suggestion: it would be so much more helpful to include in your directions that your pickup point is directly across the street from the Omni Hotel since that's where we started our walk in the opposite direction!

Richard Lavoie

Ted, experience Rhode Island tours was a fantastic day trip today thank you for the memories we share

Julie Del Priore

Great way to get an overview of Providence. Our driver/guide Ted was personable and knowledgeable. The 90-minute tour included opportunities to exit the comfortable bus for photos and see some of the small parks and waterfront features up close.

Gina Ferguson

The bus was comfortable and the tour guide very knowledgeable and personable with his narrating. Providence Rhode island is beautiful and full of rich history. It was worth the money and I would definitely recommend this tour of the city!

mary bernhardt

We enjoyed learning so many interesting facts about Rhode Island’s history. The van was a comfortable way to get around for us because we had no stress about parking or traffic. Our tour guide, John, had a good sense of humor which made the tour more fun. Thank you!

Becky Lynch

Educational tour that touched on many pieces of Providence history. Our tour guide was great and enjoyable to listen to. It was nearly 100 degrees today and although the bus had air conditioning, we couldn’t feel it in the back of the bus. We were hot. It was the only drawback to this tour.

Andrew Mason

This tour was better than expected! We were only in Providence for a day and this tour really helped us soak it all in. It even included a couple of stops that i wasn't expecting. I think one of the stops could be swapped for a more exciting stop, but overall this was a great tour that worked perfectly for our time.

Betty ChewLin

The entire tour allowed me to have a better appreciation of the capital of the smallest state in the U.S. My husband and I took this tour because we had only one day in Providence and wanted to get a taste of the city on our first visit. Our tour guide's love for his hometown was gleaned through the colorful but fact-filled stories about Roger Williams, Buddy Cianci and others. Not only was he extremely knowledgeable, but he managed to keep us engaged as he interacted with the group throughout the tour. I however believe that the tour could be extended by at least a half hour to enable participants to consume the mountain of information presented with at least 5 minutes added to each stop.

J. Davis

Our tour guide was amazing! He really took his time and explained everything about Providence. We even stopped for dessert!!! He went above and beyond. I am definitely more knowledgeable about the city and will return in the future!

Relo HS

My wife and I both enjoyed the Experience Rhode Island tour immensely. Tour guide and van driver Phil Payne is excellent. Delivered a wonderful narrative about RI founder Roger Williams, and many other things. Highly recommended!

Donna Johnston

It was great! We had limited amount of time to visit, the 3hr tour allowed us to learn about and see so much of the city. The guide was very knowledgeable with a great since of humor. The van was roomy and comfortable. The stops were timed well and at a variety of locations that let you sample the city. Definitely recommend!

Holly Donnell

Loved every minute of it especially all the history of people and places given by the driver. It was fascinating and interesting. Rhode Island is a beautiful state. We visited many places we would like to revisit again. Well done!

Marilia Faustino

This was a great way to tour Providence and learn about its history. Our driver was very entertaining. I’d recommend the tour to visitors especially if staying only one day in the city.

KC InNJ

A beautiful day for a fun and informative tour. The only thing I would change was the address info. Putting the street name and number is fine, but it would have been helpful to note the meeting place was in or in front of the convention center. Street signs and address numbers are not helpful in Providence.

Stacey Vaughn

Absolutely superb tour, our guide 'John' was an absolute font of information, his knowledge of the area was astounding, places, dates, the buildings and history. He was engaging, interesting and humorous. One of the best tours I have ever been on, many many thanks.

Shawn Logan

Great experience with our driver buddy who took us from our wedding venue to the location for our photo shoot. He kept us updated on the traffic due to Waterford but made sure we knew he would make the time up for us. I would highly recommend this service

CAW beast

My family of 4 (including 2 teenage boys) absolutely loved this tour around Rhide Island. Our guide was amazing and truly inspiring. We learned so much more about the state than we ever expected. We will definitely return to Rhode Island in the future.

Michael Goodrich, M.D.

Excellent information given throughout the tour. Ted was an excellent speaker and kept everyone interested. He also kept everyone involved. The short stops were timed perfectly. The snack stops were excellent!

Crystal Whitehead

My boyfriend and I were visiting from California and we were so happy we took this tour! The tour guide was very knowledgeable and you can tell he loves his city. I would recommend to everyone.

Susan LIchty

Ted was a wonderful tour guide. Soo much information and so interesting! He was funny and remembered all of us by where we were from!!! Very passionate about Rhode Island!!! We had an awesome time!!!

Jeryl Hendricks

Ted was a great tour guide! Very knowledgeable, and passionate about his city! We really wish we could stay two more days to be here for his day long tour!

Kaitrin M

We used ExperienceRI for our wedding shuttles this month and they knocked it out of the park! They were great to work with when booking, answered all my questions when planning out the times, and provided prompt confirmations. The pricing was great and beat other options we looked at. The drivers were courteous, the shuttles were impeccably clean, and our guests had a great experience. We even received a voicemail from Rebecca when they thought one shuttle might be a minute or two behind schedule due to extra heavy highway traffic - that's how attentive they are to customer service! Highly recommend ExperienceRI for their wedding shuttle services!

Bonnie Barton-Symonds

Ted went out of his way to make sure we had an outstanding experience. It was easy to see he enjoyed what he was doing. He was proud to share his knowledge of the state.

Jim Higgins

Amazing tour of Rhode Island ! The tour guide (Ted) was incredibly knowledgeable of the states rich history and he had an amazing sense of humor. Possibly the best tour I have ever been on. I highly recommend it.

Traci Zerbst

Ted was very knowledgeable and had a great communication style. We would highly recommend him and the tour. PS - provide water in the future for an all-day tour!

Steve Stidham

Our guide was fantastic. A lifelong Rhode Islander and showed us great history and lore on every corner. Highly recommend the tour.

Monica Pelino

A delightful walk back into the past, learning how lives were lived and how things were done! the horse cart ride was a nice addition to the trip. Very enjoyable experience. Thank you Ted

Leah Bundey

The tour was nice and the guide was knowledgeable. I am removing 1 star because the microphone gave out in the beginning of the tour so those of us on the back of the bus had trouble hearing. Additionally, the bus could use some work, especially the shocks in the back.

Katherine Wilson

Great tour—-one suggestion would be to limit the very short stops. Perhaps two longer stops would be better? Seemed like 15 minutes wasn’t long enough at Federal Hill because we were waiting for people to pay for their cannoli, etc. Eliminating the shorter stops would allow more time at Brown and Federal Hill.

Carol-Lyn

The tour was great! Our tour guide Ted was very knowledgeable and has a good sense of humor. I totally enjoyed it.

Jacqueline Farnsworth

Wonderful, informative tour. We learned so much in such a pleasant way. I’m so glad we started with this tour. Jared was easy to hear, understand and learn from. We loved it

Yvonne Hall

I really enjoyed the tour. Ted our tour guide was great. Learning about the history of Rhode Island cities and visiting the islands made this a memorable trip to me. Thanks, can't wait until my next visit.

Raymond Dusseault

Very nice, relaxing train ride in a lovely reproduction of a 1920s dining car. The luncheon was very tasty and the service excellent. Experience Rhode Island did a great job of organizing the trip and transporting us to and from the event. We look forward to future excursions with them.

George Hancock

THE BEST part of our Trip. Wow. Ted is a walking encyclopedia of knowledge and has a gift of communication. You will be happy you did this. It is worth every dime. Love it. Will go again.

Reborn With Love

We had a wonderful time! So much history was shared by our Tour Guide Jared. He was so knowledgeable and made our trip so enjoyable! Thanks for sharing all of the fascinating history including Buddy Cincinnati and Brown University.

Amanda W

We had a great guide who was really enthusiastic teaching us about the Ocean State! He had a great sense of humor, made a few stops for photos and stroll down little italy for a bit. We got to see alot of the city to know where we wanted to stop after the tour!

Terri Smith

We experienced Taste of Rhode Island today & OMG was it fabulous!! Ted was our tour guide & while he treated us to a Dels lemonade we drove to get the best clam chowder in the State! He explained the history & story bout the Providence River, walked across the bridge. Ate calamari up on a rooftop in the city of Providence. Surprised us with more treats up on Federal Hill then topped it with special dessert from the best Pastiche Bakery! OMG again! Sent us home with a favorite New England beverage. This tour is awesome. Ted was so knowledgeable about the city & the history, made it fun & interesting & delicious. Everything was timed perfectly & you really get more than your bang for the buck in food tasting! I would recommend this tour for all, visitors and natives alike. It’s fun & interesting & I would definitely go again.

Brittany Peyton

Ted was fantastic!!! Brought a family including myself, my aunt/uncle (60's) and two kids (pre-teens). All of us were entertained. He engaged each one of us with every ounce of genuine one could offer. Didn't think we could spend 7 plus hours in a van and not be bored, but we did! Hi stories and historical facts filled in the time between travels. There were just enough stops that allowed for bathroom breaks and photo ops. So much history packed in one day! Would truly suggest this trip to all. Ted has made me want to retire in Rhode Island ( 30 more years!). There are so many other shorter tours available if all day is not a possibility for you, but if you do have a free day, buy a ticket. Parking was right next door in the parking garage as well. Only 15 for the whole day. Can't beat it!

Thomas McKenna

We did the "Rhode Island in a Day" tour with Ted. It was fantastic. Rhode Island is beautiful, but Ted took it to another level. His knowledge, humor, and demeanor were excellent. Thanks for a great day!

Erica Flores

Very personable and enthusiastic guide (Buddy) full of interesting anecdotes and information. This was a nice blend of history, culture, and uniqueness of Providence and its historical personalities. Thank you!

Lori-jo Jaycox

Ted was a fantastic and knowledgeable tour guide. His passion for the state of Rhode Island was obvious in his presentation and selection of words. 10/10. Would tour with Experience Rhode Island again!

Kaitlyn F

tour of providence with Buddy was informative! i’ve never done a bus tour before so i was a little skeptical but i enjoyed it. the only critique i have is that it was hard to hear the narration in the back. i think i got about 60% of the tour

Lorraine Smith

My son and I went on the Providence tour today with Phil as our guide. We had a great time!! I highly recommend doing this tour. Thank you Phil 😃 …

Timothy Lee

Fantastic tour of Providence! Very knowledgeable and local tour guide. Comfortable shuttle bus with just a few stops. Highly recommend!

The tour of Providence last Thursday was amazing! Our tour guide very infirmative and funny good driver too! Thank you

We had a wonderful tour of the beautiful city of Providence! The weather was gorgeous and our guide was fabulous. He told interesting stories and was a wealth of information. You can tell he loves his city. Wish we could have had all day!

Glenda Savage

The driver was very professional and very knowledgeable and very proud of his state. Driving skills excellent. The weather was bad and he was still able to narrate and drive.

Lance Owens

Our guide, Jared, was outstanding. He was very interesting and easy to listen to. He answered every question and was super patient. Never rushed us at the 3 stops.

Awesome tour! Loved it! Our guide was not only knowledgeable but had a sense of humor. Highly recommend.

Valerie Grasso

Very good tour. Very entertaining. Ed (our tour guide) was extremely knowledgeable, warm and gregarious. It was a pleasure to join his tour.

Chenxin Liu

The driver and guider was very enthusiastic and energetic. Leant a lot about Rhode Island histories and some delicious restaurant in Pvd.

Suzanne Hebert

The trip to Sturbridge Village was awesome! Besides the bus being a little bumpy, it was nice not having to drive and having everything planned out for you.

Alexandra Tefft-Cassidy

We hired Experience RI for our wedding and we had a fantastic experience - always on time and the buses were super clean. Drivers were so nice and cheerful! Had to reschedule many times due to covid and they were always quick to accommodate the changes.

Becky Amen

We loved this tour. The guide kept up a running commentary of historical and other interesting information.

Michelle Hill

We enjoyed our 90 minute tour of Providence, RI. The bus was on time and the driver was a safe driver. He was also the narrator. He was informative and entertaining. He happily answered questions. We also had the chance to get off the bus and take pictures in some picturesque spots. We had a limited time to visit, so this made the most of our time.

Jenny Albaz

Great tour guy! Wonderful city! I highly recommend this tour to anyone that wants to trully get to know Providence! We loved it. It's about 2 hours long

Cindy Haeck

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! What a wonderful way to preview Providence! Terrific tour guide who shared the little details of various neighborhood areas. Stop in Little Italy was a "delicious" break. Courteous and helpful staff for ticketing and information too! Thank you! Dave & Cindy Haeck, Wilmington, NC

Amy Neftzger

Great tour for getting the history and learning about the city. Guide was very friendly and knowledgeable.

Wilson Troutman

Very good 2-hour tour of Providence. Interesting sights and narration and not too excessive on the time.

Lauren Macdonald

I worked with Experience Rhode Island Tours for my micro-wedding in October 2020. The team was incredibly professional, the bus was clean/sanitized and the price was very reasonable. I had a few last minute changes with timing and the team was able to accommodate it without a problem. As I didn't have a wedding planner, it was great to have such a thoughtful team handling the timing/transporting – I didn't have to worry about a thing. I highly recommend Experience Rhode Island Tours and I look forward to working with them again in the future!

Sounded a bit expensive but was worth every penny. Our guide was fantastic and gave us details about the city we not have learned otherwise.

Ellie Onda

A great tour of Providence! Jam packed with history! Would recommend.

Karen Mcculley

We got a good general overview of Providence with it's beginnings and history but would have liked more information about what the city has to offer visitors in other parts of town than just federal hill

Sesoo Ikpah

My wife and I were looking for a unique experience for our wedding rehearsal dinner and came across Experience Rhode Island Tours. Almost instantly I knew we made the right choice. Ted contacted us immediately and helped us plan our day. Ted was genuine, super flexible, and down to earth and really wanted to make our weekend special. When an issue arose, Ted rose to the occasion and made sure that we had nothing to worry about. John was equally great and made a couple of great suggestions of his own. Our wedding party was super impressed and everyone had a great time. If you are looking for a great experience with great people, Experience Rhode Island Tours is the way to go! I can't thank you all enough!

Edward Belson

Our guide was informative and entertaining. The tour was well worth the price.

Patricia Sparks

Our tour Guide Phil was very informative and entertaining. He was very helpful and gave us many hints to increase our enjoyment. Thanks.

Estelle Blake

It was a tasting tour in Providence and Ted is such a wonderful tour leader who knows RI and does not just present a "canned" tour. He can answer questions beyond the scope of his presentation. He engages his clients and takes a personal interest in them, where they are from and what they do. The sampling of foods was excellent giving a cross section of the city's favorite foods which were all excellent and I know that it was a struggle to manage the cabinet and the hot dog came home with me. "The tour is a bargain! This is my second one with Ted and I know there will be more.

Galen Van Blaricum

Very thorough and interesting tour. Certainly more than I expected. Would definitely do it again. 5 stars!!!!

Nicole B. Shields

We did two tours with Experience RI during our recent stay. Our first tour was the Providence city tour, which was a wonderful way to see the city and highlights. We were able to decide where we needed to spend more time and explore. We also did the Newport day tour and loved it! We drove through some adorable towns and Newport with history and facts being given to us throughout the drive. We really enjoyed the Newport tour due to the fact that we had about 3 hours to do whatever we wished in the city. The guides were awesome and accommodating! The small buses were clean and comfortable. The company also gave us information on the ferry to visit Newport again and several excellent restaurant recommendations. I definitely recommend taking at least 1 tour with this company during your stay in RI! We cannot wait to return to RI!!

J. Mattingly

A very enjoyable day! Loved learning all about Providence and sampling so much delicious food!

Lynn Sigurdson

The driver did a really good job. But his speaker stopped part way through the trip or I would have given a 5.

Katrina Hardison

John was great! He explained everything very well and most of all we had fun!

Michelle Whyte

We used Experience Rhode Island shuttles for our wedding! They were responsive via email and were flexible in changing pickup times as our wedding timeline changed. The bus was clean and fit our wedding party and guests with no issues! Would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for shuttle service in the area!

Erika Chellel

Experience RI did an amazing job as transportation for our recent wedding; you’re crazy if you don’t use them! Their price point was fantastic, the entire staff is responsive, eager to help navigate logistics, flexible, and easy going. They got all of us to ceremony, then photo location (which was determined THE DAY OF the wedding due to covid), then to reception and back to our hotel on time and without a hitch. The coach looked brand new. It was super clean and the seats were very comfortable. Hiring them was the best decision we made (besides getting married), and we can’t wait to book a private tour with them next summer!

Rufus Parker

This was an awesome tour. Wished it wasn’t raining so we could have seen everything better.

Shannon Enos

We used Experience RI to provide shuttles to our wedding in Providence. They did an amazing job! The planning process was super easy. They were always very responsive and patient when I had questions. On the day of, everything ran smoothly and all our guests made it to and from the venue safely. Our guests said the shuttles were very clean and presentable. It was such a relief to know our guests were being taken care of and no one would have to drink and drive. This was a MUST for our wedding. We would definitely use them again!

Kerri Wolfe

I've partnered with Experience RI Tours for multiple corporate teambuilder excursions and this weekend for entertaining out of town guests. The Providence Walking Tour was fantastic. I've lived here my whole life and learned so much in those 2 hrs with the lively and knowledgeable Dan Harrington! I highly recommend taking a tour with this great organization!

Warren

Excellent tour of Providence RI. We do city tours nearly everywhere we go - this was one of the best. John was very knowledgeable, friendly, and entertaining. We went on Oct 04, 2018 which is getting into the off season, and the original day and time scheduled had to be cancelled. However the company did a great job of contacting us and giving us a time the next day which worked. There was plenty of parking at the convention center - only $15 for the whole day.

John LaFoy

Excellent tour …….. great guide (Jared) ….., would not hesitate to use them again.

Cristobel von Walstrom

Great way to spend a couple of hours in Providence! Our guide (and driver) was Phil and he was terrific!!

stacey brown

The best tour we've had in a long time. Our tour guide was amazing, funny and very knowledgeable. Definitely the best Tour!!!!!!

Thomas Forese Jr

It was raining, cold(40s) and windy(30 mph). In spite of the weather, Mary and I had a very enjoyable 5 hours to, from and in Newport, RI. Ted, our driver kept us entertained with his knowledge and wit. We will probably do this again after other tours.

Mary Williams

We participated in a one and a half hour bus tour of Providence Rhode Island. We were allowed to take pictures along the way. Upon visiting the city, we knew very little about the city. But thanks to the tour guide, we gained a lot of pertinent information. We felt at ease asking questions and answers were given in a professional manner. We were glad to have taken the tour. Mary W from Montgomery, AL

Patricia Rasmus

We did a city tour with John. He was an excellent guide. He was interesting and funny. He was patient and helpful. We stopped the proper amount of time enough to enjoy the sights . The bus was comfortable. Good Covid safety measures were observed.

Leonard Soncrant

Very informative!! Courteous tour guide. We live half an hour away and still learned a lot, especially about the influence of Providence's founder Roger Williams on freedom of religion, abolition of slavery, and respect for the native lands that influenced Providence and really the nation. Great tour!

Ademunyiwa Akinloye

Very personable and knowledgeable tour guide. Enjoyed the trip. Would recommend to friends.

Teresa Grady

Ted, our guide was absolutely wonderful. I highly recommend this tour with Ted.

JIBBER JABBER

Best tour company I have ever experienced! The two owners Jon & Ted are extremely knowledgeable, genuine, and fun!! The Providence tour with Jon is packed with history and wonderful stops along the way. A great comprehensive view of the city and great orientation to get around with awesome reccomondations for breakfast lunch and dinner! I also took the fabulous day trip with Ted to Newport. I lwas amazed to learn so much about the state of Rhode Island and its historic part in the founding of our country! The scenery on this trip was unbelievable and we had an hour and a half of free time with the options of a harbor cruise, tour a mansion, shop, dine, do the cliff walk or go to the beach! I was floored to be offered free time like this! Everyone got to do their own thing and get picked back up! IT WAS AN AMAZING TOUR! Thank you ever so much! This is not you average tour company these guys care! The guy at the ticket booth helped us with things to do locally, free appetizer cards, and a map to get around! What a great team! Thank you for the education and making our stay most memorable!

Nicole Nolan

We used Experience RI tours to rent shuttle buses for our wedding. Ted was great at answering all of my questions and giving advice on what times and how many shuttles we would need. They were on time and professional the day of and we had a great experience with them!

Dani P

Great tour, Great tour guide. Perfect tour to do before starting your adventures around town.

Jerry Scannell

The tour was fantastic. Ted was an awesome tour guide. The places we went to were places that you never usually get to go to so they were all like hidden gems of the state. Thank you so much. Jerry and Mary Scannell

Amanda Hunter

Hired for our wedding as shuttles, they were on time and with the exception of one driver who called the groom day of confused of what to do which added a little stress to the day, everything worked out perfectly. When hiring them we did change plans a few times as we knew how many guests we had at each hotel and they were very amenable to change. We had one shuttle for the wedding party and he was fantastic as well taking us around for pictures. Would definitely recommend.

Renee Soares

Experience RI coordinated a fun filled day of touring local wineries in the Western and Southern part of RI for my friends and myself. We had an amazing time and felt very secure in the hands of our drivers. I would highly recommend using Experience RI to transport and coordinate any event for any group looking to enjoy RI.

I had fun, learned some history about rhode island and my own home state at the same time lol I enjoyed the apple farm and the grape Vinyard. The little town shops we stopped in were full of treasures, can't wait to go back there. The April cider donuts were yummy. Wish I could have went to the ice shop.
