Voyzo runs 1 private tour in Newport, Rhode Island, covering 4 top attractions — each with your own guide, driver, and vehicle, and an itinerary built around your group rather than a fixed bus schedule.
Newport sits at the mouth of Narragansett Bay in Rhode Island, a small seaside city best known for the Gilded Age mansions its Vanderbilt- and Astor-era summer residents built along the cliffs above the Atlantic. These weren't modest summer cottages — The Breakers, Marble House, and their neighbors were full-scale palaces modeled on European originals, and several are preserved today as museums open to visitors.
Beyond the mansions, Newport is a real working harbor town with a deep sailing history — it hosted the America's Cup for decades and remains one of the country's top sailing destinations. Thames Street's shops and restaurants sit a short walk from the water, and the Cliff Walk traces the mansion district's back lawns along 3.5 miles of dramatic Atlantic coastline.
Every Newport tour is matched to your party size — here's the fleet we draw from.

The Breakers
Newport
The largest and grandest of Newport's Gilded Age mansions, built in 1895 as the Vanderbilt family's summer cottage, with 70 rooms styled after 16th-century Italian palaces.
2
Marble House
Newport
A Gilded Age mansion built for the Vanderbilt family in 1892, faced almost entirely in marble and modeled on the Petit Trianon at Versailles.
3
Cliff Walk
Newport
A 3.5-mile public walking path along Newport's Atlantic shoreline, tracing the back lawns of the Gilded Age mansions with ocean views the whole way.
4
Thames Street
Newport
Newport's main waterfront street, lined with shops, restaurants, and galleries just steps from the harbor.
Admission to The Breakers, Marble House, and Newport's other Gilded Age mansions is booked and paid separately from any private tour — most visitors pick one or two mansions rather than trying to see them all in a day.
Late spring through early fall brings the mildest weather for walking the Cliff Walk and exploring the harbor; summer is Newport's busiest and most festive season, with sailing regattas and outdoor events.
Newport's 3.5-mile Cliff Walk along the mansion district's coastline is a free public path — no ticket required, though some sections can be uneven underfoot.
Newport is a common day trip from Boston, roughly a 90-minute to 2-hour drive depending on traffic and route.
