Newport is one of the most haunted cities in New England
Few cities layer their history the way Newport does. Colonial seaport, Revolutionary stronghold, and Gilded Age playground all in one, the city has had centuries to gather tragedy, loss, and the spirits that come with them.
Colonial taverns, a historic waterfront, and the grand mansions of Bellevue Avenue - Newport's history runs dark beneath its postcard beauty, and our guides know exactly where to find it.
Founded in the 1600s, Newport was one of colonial America's busiest ports, and centuries of seafaring life have left it with a deep collection of ghost stories.
The mansions of Bellevue Avenue were built by America's wealthiest families, and the fortunes, scandals, and tragedies behind their walls still echo today.
Newport's historic taverns have served sailors, merchants, and revolutionaries for generations, and some of their oldest patrons are said to have never left.
The harbor and wharves that built Newport have witnessed centuries of trade, war, and hardship, and much of that history lingers after dark.
Colonial, Revolutionary, and Gilded Age Newport all occupy the same streets, and the past feels remarkably close at every turn.
There are few backdrops as fitting for a ghost tour as Newport's colonial lanes and grand avenues beneath the coastal night sky.

Most of our Newport ghost tours run about 90 minutes and cover an easy walk through the colonial historic district, with plenty of stops along the way.
They are. Our Newport tours move at a relaxed pace and stop often, so you can take in each location while your guide tells its story. Comfortable walking shoes are recommended.
Comfortable walking shoes are the main thing. Newport sits right on the water, so the evening air can turn cool and breezy even in summer. We recommend bringing a light layer just in case.
Our tours run rain or shine, so it is worth bringing an umbrella if rain is in the forecast. In the rare case of dangerous weather, we will reach out about rescheduling.
Our tours take place outdoors as we walk the streets of the colonial historic district. We stop in front of Newport's most haunted locations and share their stories, though we don't go inside private homes or businesses.
Our Newport tours meet at a central location in the historic district. The exact meeting spot is included in your booking confirmation, so you'll know exactly where to find your guide.
