Loved our time on the sunset cocktail cruise. They take you out to where the really, really, really big boats are. I would suggest sitting up front as close as possible so you can make sure you have first dibs at the drinks. Bathroom on board but you have to walk down some very narrow and steep steps to get to it. Cruise from start to finish (waiting in line to disembarking) is about 2 hours. Definitely worth it! Very reasonable prices for an activity like this in such a touristy place.

Friendly, knowledgeable and courteous crew provided a wonderful private tour on "Full Moon" for the 15 participants in my Vistage Worldwide CEO leadership retreat. Our 90 minute ride was relaxing, and set the tone for the productive and enjoyable learning experience that followed.

The captain of the Madeline and the crew were very personable . They told great stories about the Newport area and were very knowledgeable about the surrounding boats that past us by . The Madeline was a beautiful sailboat and it is well taken care of . The price was right for this 1 and a half hour sail . We would definitely go again !

Best day of the year to be on the water, and Newport Classic Cruises' "Rum Runner II" made it unforgettable! Sailing the day after Labor Day meant a light load, making it feel like our own private yacht. The calm waters and smooth sailing were perfect, and the crew did a fantastic job keeping us entertained. We enjoyed a mix of history, lighthouse views, the thrill of speed, and a little sea spray to keep things fun. Laughter filled the air--what more could you ask for? If you're looking for a great time in Newport, hop on t... read more

You get great views of Newport while out on the water on this boat. The crew is very attentive and checks in on each guest at the start and midway through the tour. Overall, however, this tour was underwhelming. I expected to learn more about Newport and boating while onboard. It was peaceful but not as exciting as I had hoped.
Business response:
Thank you for sharing your experience and for the kind words about our crew and the beautiful Newport views! We appreciate your feedback and are sorry to hear the tour didn't fully meet your expectations. Our goal is to create a relaxing and enjoyable experience, but we understand that some guests might be looking for more detailed narration or excitement. We recommend the Rum Runner II for full narration on day trips. We hope you’ll give us another chance in the future for a different type of adventure! Warmly, Newport Cl... read more
We had an excellent trip on the Rum Runner. The hostess was knowledgeable and friendly, and the skipper did an outstanding job. Well worth the cost.
