Newton to Providence bus

Newton is a suburb of Boston, comprised of thirteen villages and located about seven miles west of Boston. Several historic homes reflect Newton's past, and you can tour the Durant-Kenrick House and Grounds or the Jackson Homestead and Museum to learn more about the area.

Newton is a beautiful place to spend time outdoors, whether you go walking in Upper Falls Greenway or spend some time admiring Crystal Lake. Many of Newton's restaurants, cafés, and shops are situated along Beacon Street; however, it is also only a short distance into the center of Boston for even more shops, restaurants, and attractions.

Newton is served by Boston's MBTA transit services, including local buses and the Green Line of the T. These connect Newton to the many travel opportunities out of Boston, including the closest airport, Boston Logan International Airport. Plus, Go Buses offers a convenient intercity bus service that departs directly from Newton on routes to New York.

Though some might say that it is overshadowed by nearby Boston, Providence is an interesting destination on its own. A quaint college town with a deep historical value, Providence allows fans of U.S. history to marvel at historic buildings such as the ones on Benefit Street, which boasts the highest concentration of Colonial houses. As you stroll around the streets of Providence at night, don’t forget to take a detour to WaterFire, a sculpture project that features bonfires along the rivers of Providence. Accompanying the bonfires are the sounds of ceremonial gongs and various music programs, which brighten up the night. For those seeking a unique cultural experience, the Federal Hill quarter sits among the most famous Little Italian neighborhoods, and it features some of the best Italian restaurants in town.

The staple dish of Providence is oysters, which are not difficult to find in the city. However, if you can endure a short drive, Matunuck Oyster Bar, an oyster restaurant located 40 miles south of South Kingstown, provides some of the freshest and most delicious oysters around. Some other notable establishments include Birch, Oberlin, and Tallulah’s Taqueria.

The Providence airport is located in nearby Warwick which is only a 6 miles’ drive from the city. The main bus hub for Providence is found at the Rhode Island Convention Center Parking Garage, where travelers could catch a bus from Greyhound or Peter Pan Bus Lines. The main Amtrak train station is located just a 10-minute walk across the Woonasquatucket River.
