Guide & Receptive Services
Since 1960, Viking Tours of Newport has been helping groups discover “America’s First Resort.” For groups arriving aboard their own motorcoach, we offer a full range of receptive services, from step-on guide service to full itinerary planning. Whether your visit is for an hour, a day or several days, our local guides will explore with your passengers our city’s historic significance. From colonial beginnings through the rich opulence of the “Gilded Age,” Newport offers a colorful slice of American life. Let the professionals at Viking Tours share it with you!
Our local tour guides can give your group an overview tour for even the tightest of itineraries. Our usual step-on tour of Newport generally takes about 90 minutes, but if you give us 60 minutes we will still show you the best that Newport has to offer.
