Creator's Key Takeaways

today our cruise docks in Newport Rhode Island and I'm going to show you how we get to downtown Newport what we do once we get to Newport

we booked an independent Shore Excursion for today with Viking tours of Newport for their Newport Scenic trolley tour

the water shuttle lets us out right in town visitors walk under a canopy and between a little visitor kiosk on the right and a food truck on the left

if I get the opportunity to return to Newport I think I would probably just be content with walking around the downtown historic area

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Get tender tickets early to avoid wait times around 9:00 a.m.
βœ“Follow directions to the Explorer's Lounge for water shuttle tickets.
βœ“Consider walking around downtown historic area for museums, shops, and coastal walks.

My review of the cruise port in Newport, Rhode Island while on a Princess cruise round-trip out of New York. It was a tender port. I will talk about where the tender drops you off, how to get to the independent touring transportation, and some things to do in Newport.
