OVERVIEW

Enjoy the natural riches of Newport by following a portion of the popular Cliff Walk trail that leads to The Breakers, one of the city’s most opulent mansions. Designated a National Recreation Trail for its stunning beauty, the cliff walk will present a continuous, up close and spectacular view of the waves crashing against Newport’s rocky shoreline. Along the way, the guide will share stories of the Gilded Age and the fabulously wealthy that summered here, such as Cornelius Vanderbilt II. He commissioned a “cottage” to be built on 13 acres overlooking the sea and by 1895 his 70-room Italian Renaissance-style palazzo was finished. To enhance your understanding of its detail and cutting-edge technology at the time, you will take a self-guided audio tour of the mansion at your own pace.
