Although the self-guided audio tour on the app does not replace a human tour guide that you can ask questions of, it was a well-organized and informative tour. I do have one piece of constructive criticism. Perhaps the preservation society should sell earbuds or headsets at a very reasonable price so individuals can put one ear piece in while they walk around versus some people walking around with the volume amplified.

Rhode Island is blessed with the "richest" history. Newport Rhode Island to this day holds the greatest connections for us all to experience the historic stories still alive for us to relive. Thank you to all the Newport Historic Society devotees who fought to keep these mansions and history preserved and saved from dilapitation and ruin. God bless.
