Synopsis

Rhode Island has towns that were built on a great bay, towns that were built on great rivers, towns that were built on historic roads, towns that were built on shipbuilding, towns that were built on grand seafaring adventures, towns that were built on woven cloth, towns that were built on granite. Heck, Rhode Island even has towns built on rubber. There is no better way to see Rhode Island towns than on foot. And there is no better way to appreciate what you are looking at than with a self-guided walking tour available in LOOK UP, RHODE ISLAND! WALKING TOURS OF 12 TOWNS IN THE OCEAN STATE.
