This week on PVD POV, we sit down with Bradly VanDerStad, founder of Providence Tour Company, to talk about how one person’s love for the city turned into a thriving small business. From uncovering hidden histories to experimenting with new ways for people to experience Providence — like speakeasy-style strolls and art and architecture tours — Bradly shares what it means to build connection and pride through storytelling. Whether you're a visitor or a local, this episode will have you seeing the city in a whole new light.
