I am sure if you get on the boat you booked, it is a lovely tour, but you better make sure the employees are competent enough not to book you on a different boat than you asked for. This morning, we decided to book a sunset sail. Finding that all were sold out, we were excited to find out from the lovely woman working at the Madeleine/ Rum Runner booth that there was a firework sailing option, which we promptly booked. We were quite clear that we wanted the SAILBOAT option only, as other boats make my husband quite ill becau... read more

Our group of five took a 90 min. tour on the Madeline at 10:30 this morning. We sat near the back of the sailboat with Captain Dave navigating. Also attending were Tebow and Kat. They provided narration at the front of the boat and when we asked Dave if they could use a mic so we could hear he said 'no, this is what I'm here for'. He proceeded to spend almost the entire time talking to a fellow sailboat enthusiast who was taking the tour with his wife. He answered questions about points of interests as we had them, but did n... read more

Headed out on the sunset sail cruise. It was amazing with the all you can drink champagne! I lucked out because the weather broke and there was a sunset to see! The crew was friendly and offered anecdotes and entertainment. The only downside was that it wasn't narrated so it would have been nice to know what we were seeing while sailing

Setting sail in Newport is awesome. The captain and crew on board were great as well. The champagne and beer was good and we couldn't have asked for a better time. Will definitely be making future trips here and will also be recommending you guys to others that will be in Newport.

A great "edutivity" My wife, daughter, and I spent a wonderful 90 minutes with the crew of the Madeleine this morning. The early cruise was a blast. Captain Wes did a great job making us feel safe and kept us informed of what was going on, as well as letting us know about the boat, the history of sailing in the area, and the sights as we swept by. On a very hot day, this was a great trip. Kat did a great job hosting (and says 'hi' to mom if you're reading this). Hanna (banana) was wonderful to check on my wife. For those wit... read more

This was a GREAT excursion experience! Hannah, Wes, and Kat were absolutely wonderful guides. They were fun, enjoyed their jobs, and made the trip seem like an outing with old friends. We rode The Madeline and were able to spread out and move around while also having conversations between ourselves and other passengers. Highly recommend this for anyone in Rhode Island, the 45 minute drive from Providence was completely worth it. The town of Newport is the quaint ocean town you would except with restaurants, shops, and more t... read more
