Welcome to the Newport Cliff Walk Trivia Tour for Kids
Do you want to take a tour but have fun while doing it? Get ready for an exciting new type of tour guide: a trivia tour! This is especially great for kids to learn a bit more about the Gilded Age in a fun, engaging manner!
Return to the extravagance of the Gilded Age. Keep your eyes open for question clues as you stroll beside the ocean and admire the opulent villas that line these seaside bluffs. Get to know the Vanderbilts and the Astors, and get a taste of the luxurious lifestyles they lived in these enormous mansions. Oh, and of course, there’s plenty of drama to discover among these high-society socialites, like Mrs. Astor’s ever-contentious list of who was and wasn’t invited to her super-exclusive parties.
This is how it works:
As you walk the route, you’ll be prompted with questions that encourage you to really pay attention to your surroundings to find the answers. Answer correctly and your virtual tour guide will fill you in on surprising bits of history, trivia, and tips for getting the most out of your trip.
