5.00If you are planning a trip to Newport, booking the Viking Trolley Tour is easily the best decision you can make. It is the ultimate, stress-free way to explore the town without the massive headache of driving yourself through the crowded, narrow streets or hunting for nonexistent downtown parking. It serves as a perfect live preview of the city. You can effortlessly spot all the scenic overlooks, hidden pathways, and local landmarks you will want to go back and visit on your own after the tour ends. Opting for the combo ticket that includes admission to The Breakers is worth every single penny. The trolley drops you off right at the gates of Cornelius Vanderbilt’s jaw-dropping 70-room estate. The itinerary is perfectly paced, granting you plenty of time inside to explore the opulent interiors, platinum-leaf ceilings, and gorgeous oceanfront grounds at your own speed. Between the highly entertaining historical commentary from the local guides and the logistics it saves you, this tour is an absolute must-do.

5.00This was a very nice tour. Pick up is behind the Hamilton Family Aquarium on America's Cup Ave. This is a covered area so you can stay out of the sun. Jim, our guide, was informative but the trolly sound system was not ideal. We went to the Breakers and just enough time was given for this part. Overall, good value.
