Bedford Parks and Rec Newport RI Mansion Tour

& Wine Tasting

$109.00

Join us as we step back in time and visit the historic Mansions of Newport RI. Upon arrival in Newport we

will drive the spectacular Ocean Dr. before touring the Breakers. The Breakers is the grandest of Newport's

summer "cottages" and a symbol of the Vanderbilt family's social and financial preeminence in turn of the

century America. Commodore Cornelius Vanderbilt (1794-1877) established the family fortune in steamships

and later in the New York Central Railroad, which was a pivotal development in the industrial growth of the

nation during the late 19th century.

The Vanderbilt’s had seven children. Their youngest daughter, Gladys, who married Count Laszlo Szechenyi of

Hungary, inherited the house on her mother's death in 1934. An ardent supporter of The Preservation Society of

Newport County, she opened The Breakers in 1948 to raise funds for the Society. In 1972, the Preservation

Society purchased the house from her heirs. Today, the house is designated a National Historic Landmark. The

self-guided tours are by Audio Wand does so you can decide on what interests you.

We will stop for wine tasting at Newport Vinyards. Lunch will be included at the Atlantic Grill
