BOOK YOUR EXPERIENCE


Discover the Blackstone River Valley
National Historical Park by Boat!

The Blackstone River, and its tributaries, are splendid places to uncover. The peacefulness, beauty, and wildlife you can now find along the river is a wonderful change from the rough industrial past that birthed America’s Industrial Revolution and made this region famous.

Whether you’re a tourist visiting Rhode Island’s National Historical Park, a local resident wanting to learn more about your backyard, or someone simply looking for a fun and unique experience… we love to share Blackstone Valley’s rich history and scenic landscapes.
