What a fantastic city...
What a fantastic city tour! The unique little car made it fun and easy to see so much of the city without all the walking. Our guide was incredible—knowledgeable, entertaining, and full of interesting facts and stories. We learned so much and had a wonderful time. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area!

Our sail on the Adirondack was one of the highlights of our trip! Getting out on the water was so much fun, and the crew was absolutely amazing—friendly, professional, and welcoming. We enjoyed glasses of Prosecco while sitting back, relaxing, and taking in the beautiful views. Along the way, the crew shared interesting history and stories about the area, which made the experience even more enjoyable. It was the perfect combination of relaxation, sightseeing, and fun. We didn’t want it to end! Highly recommend this sail to anyone visiting Newport.

Great information and...
Great information and tour. Very friendly and informed guide. I’ve taken this tour before and enjoyed it. This time we saw extra sites I don’t remember seeing last time. Personal stories from the guide who grew up in Newport made the tour extra special.

Amazing food tour!
The Newport food tour was amazing and all of the food was delicious. Sue our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the area and super nice and friendly to all of us. It was well worth the fee, as you definitely received a lot of food and drinks. Don’t hesitate to book this tour! You will love it!

Loved it!
I can't rave about our time with Gansett enough! The staff was super friendly from David, to the captain to our awesome bartender Bella! Though the weather wasn't ideal for spring, the tour was super enjoyable and the views were beautiful. Drinks and chocolate chips cookies were top notch. :) I would definitely recommend and hope to come back during the summer months.

Great Sunset Cruise!
Great experience! The staff was super friendly and even called ahead to make sure we knew how to locate the cruise port. The cruise was fun and the staff clearly enjoy what they do. Totally recommended if you’re a Newport enthusiast or visiting for the first time!

Great morning on the Narragansett
Really fun and informative cruise. Miles and the crew were incredibly nice and professional. The weather was great and the took us in a great ride around the Narragansett bay. My wife and I had a generous Prosecco pour and enjoyed the beautiful scenery. The crew was funny and professional. Told us about Newport history and gave us great lunch recommendations. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a morning boat ride.

Lacking communication
While we had a great experience with Gansett cruises, Viator did not provide correct information about the activity. We ordered our tickets back in April with the time slot of 11:15am. When we arrived (thankfully early) Gansett didn’t have our reservation listed and the time was actually 11am departure. I had my tickets and multiple emails from Viator with my reservation number and the time. Thankfully Gansett cruises had space and so we were able to attend, but Viator needs to ensure they have proper and correct info, and is providing that to the event conductors correctly. Not sure I would book through Viator again, we just happened to be lucky.

I traveled with family on this sunset schooner cruise in Newport.....we had an excellent experience! The crew was great- provided us details of the area and were attentive to our needs and the sailing was a terrific experience...just wish it had been a bit longer than 1 1/2 hours!

Jay is a rockstar
Jay was a wealth of knowledge. Jay showed sailing skills above the average sailor. Jay only cried twice when Mark yelled at him. If I was to adopt a child I would rename them Jay. Jay should be given a raise. Jay seems like management material. Jay requested that nothing be said about him on these comments, but Jay’s above and beyond attitude should be recognized. Jay has made our Rhode Island vacation a success. I would definitely recommend my friends and family take a sail with Jay.

Coastal Queen Gives Royal Treatment
What a wonderful way to spend some time on the water. Clean, comfortable and so pleasantly entertaining. I enjoyed every minute of this coastal tour. The witty narrator provided just enough information about the homes and landmarks around Newport Harbor.

Great experience with family
My family and I went sailing with Captain Charlie, Jay and Kelly (I think was her name). They were a great crew. Made everyone feel comfortable and it happened to be the perfect day, weather wise to go! All in all, a great experience and would do it again with them! Everything started on time and went very smoothly.
