Newport Water Tour 🤍
Levina_B, Oct 2023
My daughter and myself were in town from Florida and wanted to experience Newport, RI. The booking for the cruise was so simple. When we went to the meet up area the young lady at the window of Gansett Cruises was so polite and helpful. The onboard cruise personal were very attentive and educational. Will definitely come back again and book with this Cruise company again. Lots of fun!

I’m a local and brought out of town guest on the tour…we all enjoyed it! I learned a few things I didn’t know. It was nice to see NPT from the water which I don’t often do!

Fabulous Cruise
Lynetta_S, Oct 2023
The trip was fabulous, but you needed to stop for about five minutes so everyone could take selfies with the sun setting. I have been on other Sunset cruises, and that has always been the case, except for this one. Otherwise, it was great!

Even though the weather caused our cruise to be cancelled, we were SO impressed with the company and courteous staff. So organized and professional!!!' Can't wait to rebook in better weather.
Annoying narrator/guide
Polly_K, Sep 2023
The guide/narrator was just too talkative, tried to be too humorous and to me, seemed obnoxious and annoying. He was knowledgeable, but presentation really wasn't that relaxing and enjoyable.
Great time
