Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Sarah was a brilliant tour guide - knowledgable on the local area and had a great stage presence. One of the better walking tours we’ve been on, definitely recommend if you have a free evening in Newport.

Just a joke and rip-off!! Bunch of c-list actors struggling with a 100% false script - complete with fake “Ray gums” to find ghosts! One word: pathetic!

This is a historical driving tour thru Newports oldest neighborhoods and the 10 mile ocean drive. Our van tour does not deal with the paranormal in any way.

My wife and I really enjoyed the Old Town Ghost Tour in Newport RI. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable on the history of Rhode Island and spoke clearly si everyone could hear her stories. We would definitely recommend this Ghost Tour if you are planning to visit Newport RI

It was entertaining. I walked down a few unfamiliar steets, learned a little background on some of the buildings and saw some historical buildings that I didn't know existed.

We had a great time on the tour! The tour went to a few locations where we learned Newport history and spooky stories associated with each place. Our guide Richard was awesome!

Sara was a great guide who combined the true stories with a professional presentation style and humor. Great accounts and you could actually hear her clearly despite the large group. Great content.
