The Creative Capital: An Art and Architecture Tour of Providence

Providence Tour Company delivers consistently excellent experiences, with guests raving about their engaging guides and delicious food stops. The Crime and Cuisine tour appears to be a standout offering, mixing local history with authentic tastings that leave everyone satisfied. What really shines through is how the guides make the experience memorable—Katherine (also Kate), David, and Dave get called out repeatedly for being funny, knowledgeable, and genuinely great at what they do. Families particularly appreciate how the tours work across generations. One reviewer mentioned their young adult daughters were initially skeptical but ended up loving it far more than expected. The tours seem to hit that sweet spot of being informative without feeling like a history lesson, entertaining without being cheesy. Even when the weather doesn't cooperate, guests still have a wonderful time learning about Federal Hill's "colorful history and connections." If you're looking for an afternoon activity that combines local culture, fascinating stories, and great food, this comes highly recommended by visitors of all backgrounds.
