    Our tour guide, Ted, was deeply knowledgeable about Providence and its history and extremely enjoyable to listen to.

    We hosted a party here on Oct 13, 2019. We booked our engagement party on short notice (about 5…read moreweeks before) and Kaitlyn was so easy to work with from the start. We fell in love with her, the house, everything including the murder-by-mail story behind the house from the 1800s. About 2 weeks before the party we called Kaitlyn and told her it was going to turn into our surprise wedding! She continued to be so helpful and excited, giving recommendations for all kinds of vendors we'd need. The day of the party she was professional and hands-on, making sure everything got done on a quick timeline. She calmed nerves and had great suggestions on where things should go to make sure everything flowed just right. Our rental price included some tables and linens she had available, and some glassware too. It was so perfect from the start and we couldn't be happier!!

Beautiful historic building who's tour guides added in a true life murder mystery of the lady of the houses death. This really added to the event as it was so my scene and absolutely fun. They also had a whiskey tasting since she was poisoned with whiskey which is ironically amazing. I would def host an event here because unlike the Newport mansions I could touch things and see things in the midst of being historically preserved since they're still restoring the house. Open Doors RI has found a new regular customer :)

    Great place to go if you have any ancestors who lived in Rhode Island, I was able to find an…read morearticle about my great-great grandfather and his brother's deaths. Also was able to get information on their children and other aspects about the area. The staff is very friendly and interested in helping you find that missing connection, don't be afraid to ask for help :) The only downside of this place is the state of some of the machines...they are really expensive to replace, so its understandable that some are in bad condition. Just remember to leave your pens at home! Bring some money for the photocopy machines.

    This review is for the library only, not the entire RIHS…read more First off, the gated front door is a bit unwelcoming, I hit the button and they buzz me in, you maybe? Go ahead try it. The library itself is small once inside but it has lots and lots of microfiche, directories, family histories, etc. You can find RI newspapers going back to 1700s on the fiche. Looking for a dead body? They have a huge database of RI burial grounds / cemeteries and their burials going back to the 1600s - it's how I found a lot of my family bones. They also have a lot of special collections, photos, etc. I was please to be able to read first hand how my great grandfather met Abraham Lincoln along with other members of his regiment during the Civil War, and many other entries made by its regimental officers. They give a first hand account of daily life back then. I think the daily fee is three dollars, but go ahead and just buy a yearly membership to the entire society for $40, and check out all their other programs.

    I've seen the Comedy Bus a few times in downtown Providence and always thought it would be a fun…read moreactivity to do. My friend and I booked our seats for the Brunch Tour on March 29, 2025 at 11:00 am through the Comedy Bus website. The website was easy to use and reserve our tickets. About 10:35am, I arrived at the pickup location - Brass Monkey: 800 Allen's Avenue Providence, RI. I parked in the parking lot in the back of the building and walked to the front of Brass Monkey where the Comedy Bus was waiting. About 10:40am, they started to let people board the bus. I gave them my name and they ensured waivers were signed. My friend and I chose a row near the front. Each seat had a form for us to choose which drinks we wanted at the two stops. On the back of the seats in front of us, there was a bottle opener. Since guests are welcome to bring their own beer and wine to drink on the bus, my friend and I packed a small lunchbox-sized cooler with Barefoot Spritzers. Everyone arrived pretty much on time except for 1 couple. Brad Pierce, our first comedian, talked briefly about sights and neighborhoods in Providence and he asked the last couple to board the bus, which superpower they would like to have and they said speed. Brad said yes, speed is a good one since you were almost late for the tour. The second comedian was Matt from Lil Rhody Laugh Riot. Both comedians were really funny and had us laughing the whole trip. Our first stop was Moonshine Alley. Our drinks were brought to us and chicken and waffles were served. The chicken was very moist and the waffles were hot and fresh. The Moonshine Sangria was also very good. The second stop was Viva Mexico Cantina Grill and we had our second drink with a plate of steak slices with chips, avocado, eggs and salsa. The Classic Red Sangria was refreshing. The steak was a little dry for me, but with the salsa it was a lot better. The chips and avocado were very good. Overall, what is better than brunch, drinks, and comedy. By the end of the tour, everyone felt like family. We were all sharing drinks and laughter. It was truly an unforgetabble morning/afternoon. We were kept on time and arrived back at Brass Monkey, the pickup location, exactly in 3 hours.

    Lots of laughs, highly recommend!…read more We were on the bus with Charles P. The guy was a jerk and even broke the bathroom door!
