Experience RI shines brightest with their knowledgeable guides and reliable shuttle services. Tour guides like Phil, John, Ted, and Jarod consistently earn praise for bringing Rhode Island's history to life with humor and genuine local pride. They know exactly where to stop for the best views and keep groups entertained throughout the day. The shuttle service has become particularly popular for weddings, with Buddy frequently mentioned for his helpful communication and flexible approach. Drivers arrive on time, maintain clean vehicles, and create a comfortable atmosphere where guests can relax with their own music. The company does have a potential weak spot worth noting: tour cancellations due to low enrollment. A couple of reviewers experienced last-minute cancellations that weren't properly communicated, which understandably caused frustration and wasted vacation time. While refunds were issued, the lack of advance notice created real problems for travelers who'd already booked hotels and arranged their schedules. If you're booking a scheduled tour rather than a private shuttle, it's worth confirming a day or two ahead. That said, the overwhelming majority of experiences are positive, with groups consistently praising both the educational value of tours and the professionalism of the entire operation.
We used them for a workplace holiday outing and they were phenomenal! Our driver made sure we got to all our spots in time and made sure that everyone was comfortable. Even though our itinerary was complicated, our driver was kind and patient. Booking them was also very easy and they answered all of my many questions quickly and kindly. If I ever plan another one of these outings, I will absolutely use them again. Perfect service -- something difficult to come by these days.
