Welcome to Providence:
A Newcomer's Tour

A Blend of Community and Urban Sophistication

Providence is a perfect blend of the community feel of a small town and the urban sophistication of a big city. This tour introduces guests to all of the essentials of the city, including an overview of Providence and Rhode Island history, architectural marvels, universities, and quirky characters.

"...having, of a sense of God's merciful providence unto me in my distress, called the place Providence... I desired it might be for shelter of persons distressed of conscience."

Roger Williams, Founder of Providence
