Cait made the tour enjoyable and engaging. We gained a lot of knowledge at a comfortable pace while admiring stunning architecture and learning about the city. Her personable and humorous nature made the time pass quickly. I highly recommend this experience for anyone visiting the area.
Living in Providence, I can say these tours are essential for both locals and visitors. A friend and I joined the Christmas on Benefit Street History Tour and had a wonderful time. Courtney is delightful and incredibly knowledgeable; she could easily be mistaken for a history professor. Benefit Street is highly recognizable and filled with the charming historical essence of New England. Experiencing this tour with Courtney added depth to my appreciation of living here. She even wears a beautiful velveteen Victorian holiday dress and forgoes gloves in freezing temperatures to share fascinating historical items from her bag. I've also attended the seasonal ghost tours, which are equally fantastic and full of accurate local history. This experience is truly worthwhile!
During this holiday season, we decided to join the “Christmas on Benefit Street” tour offered by Providence Ghost Tours. Last year, unfortunate weather forced us to cancel, but we were thrilled to reschedule for this year. Our family previously enjoyed the Ghost Tour and were eager to dive into the fascinating ghostly tales. Our adult children later brought some friends along, all of whom had nothing but praise for the experience and their guide. The Christmas tour surpassed our expectations, thanks to our guide Courtney. Her extensive knowledge and engaging style made the tour remarkable. She vividly transported us to Christmas in Providence from the past, using her stories and historical props to evoke the essence of Christmas in the 1700s and 1800s. When next year's Christmas season arrives, if you're seeking a fun activity with family or friends, we highly recommend the “Christmas on Benefit Street” tour. It promises to be a wonderful experience. Additionally, the year-round “Providence Ghost Tour” will also provide an amazing time for all. We appreciate Courtney for her dedication to preserving Providence's history and for sharing that journey with us.
