tripadvisorGreat tour! The tour guide gave us wonderful insights on the history of the area and we had lots of stops for perfect picture opportunities
MoreThe park is large with lots of trails and features. I liked waking around the trails seeing different water views. I especially liked the dirt trail along the lake. The Japanese garden was nice but crowded. I wished I would have come earlier in the day to see the botanical garden. The parking was terrible if you come on a weekend. The spot I found didn't have a turnaround so everyone had to back out to get to the main road through the park.
MoreRoger Williams Park is glorious. Go during April when the tree blossoms are a-popping! The Japanese garden is spectacular at this time of year as well. On a quiet rainy Saturday, my husband and I had the area pretty much to ourselves--oh, and the nesting swans in Willow Lake were also there--the flickers were also out and not skittish by an means. Even if you aren't about to ride the indoor carousel, it is worth taking a look at it--a beautiful work of art. Take a lunch and picnic here on a warm sunny day-- wish we could have, but still the rain was not a problem.
MoreA very spacious, well maintained Park. There is an area with athletic fields, a zoo, gardens, lakes(boating), a museum, trails for both walking & biking, playgrounds for younger children and lots of green grass for picnicking or relaxing in the sunshine. You can easily spend a day here.
MoreOur visit was nice, the park is pretty and peaceful. There weren't a ton of animals, but we did see a zebra, vultures, an elephant, a monkey, even a few animals I had never heard of before. Well run, plenty of restrooms, some food/snack stands and gift shop. Good for little kids, there are play areas for them too. As an adult, I found it a tad boring, but it was a nice place to spend an afternoon.
