The story

About Ghost Tours of Newport Olde Town Ghost Walk

The original lantern-lit ghost walk meets inside the Newport Marriott and covers less than a mile at a leisurely pace—good for most families and mixed-age groups. Guides weave colonial lore with stops that often include the former jail, the White Horse Tavern, and Trinity Church yard. Tours operate rain or shine; accessible routes are available.

My wife loves to go on ghost tours, so when we found out about this one we had to sign up. Meeting area was in a hotel lobby, which was nice. John was our tour guide, and he was amazing and very engaging. It's a walking tour, so there is a large amount of walking involved, so keep that in mind. I will say, that the majority of the tour was more of a Newport history lesson, but there was always a ghost story involved in each stop. Final stop was in a graveyard, which was very cool. Overall, we recommend.

We went on the 6:30pm tour with Richard. He was fantastic! Learning the history and hearing the ghost stories of Newport was such an amazing experience. However, Richard really made our night! He was so funny, and knowledgeable. It was truly and awesome experience!

Loved this part of our trip to Newport. Sarah was an excellent tour guide! You can tell she loves what she does. The ghostly stories she told were fantastic. Seeing Newport at night was also a beautiful and unique experience!

Fun and informative. Nice walk around historic Newport. Takes around an hour and a half but with frequent stops it's rather easy and enjoyable. Don't forget to share your ghost pictures on social media.

My family and I took this tour last night. (5/22/21) My daughter and wife were skeptical at first. Within moments of the first stories our daughter was hooked and hanging on every word. Richard was an excellent story teller. His knowledge was impressive. He encouraged picture taking. And with that my wife stumbled upon Gladys at the theater. Her face was formed in a mist with orbs floating nearby. This event took any skepticism away from my wife. Overall we all had a fantastic evening strolling Newport looking for spirits. We highly recommend taking this tour. Whether you are a local or visiting from out of town!
