Our afternoon boat ride was just perfect! The dock was easy to find and the girl that checked us in was very pleasant! Boat was so clean and comfortable. Our guide Patrick did a great job. Very knowledgeable and humorous which made it fun! The captain and crew were efficient and we def enjoyed the Dils lemonade, which was included. I would highly recommend this cruise to anyone looking for an enjoyable way to spend your afternoon on the water!

Very informative. Comfortable and casual with great staff. A pleasant hour-plus learning about Newport and seeing sites from the bay.
Tony was the best guide, funny and so informative!
Nice, clean boat with excellent tour guide and crew. Thank you for a beautiful day!
Other riders were pretty rude. Forced to cram into small space while other riders had much more room. Kind of ruined the experience. I wouldn’t go back
Patrick was great, had a lot of fun, would recommend. Staff was great as well, drinks were priced well.
