Public Tours

No first-time visit to Newport is complete without a guided tour of Touro Synagogue.

Aaron Ginsburg, a Newport native, CAI member, published historian, and passionate Touro aficionado provides public tours on a regular basis.

Space is limited and registration is required. Expect to spend around 45 minutes on the tour. We regret that there are no public restrooms and that our historic building is not handicap-accessible.

Tickets are free but donations of any amount are appreciated.
