RHODE ISLAND TOURISM INFORMATION

Considering that Rhode Island is the smallest state in the union, it's amazing how much it has to offer tourists!

Here, we have listed resources and links to help zoo visitors who may be unfamiliar with Rhode Island to find area hotels, maps, other attractions and much more.

So spend a day at "New England's great zoo" (Boston Globe), and then spend some time exploring everything else the Ocean State has to offer!
