Newport is a fun place to spend the day. I would recommend NOT taking any tours from the cruise lines. It is a short walk to the bus station where you can buy a ticket for the tour of the "cottages." Most when I researched include the breakers and however many more your feet can handle. The Breakers is a docent guided tour so there are lines while you wait for your turn. (That is as of fall of 2003 when we went) You tour the other mansions with headsets and can spend as little or as much time as you want in any room. We really liked that a lot. W did Breakers and Marble House then headed back to town for lunch.
I would like to go back and see a couple more and have more time to see the area as well.
