Gansett Cruises

Driving Directions

Excellent water tour. We loved the guide and every minute being on the water. The 'stuffies' (adtll cost) and hot apple cider was great. The tour guide-the best!

Patrick is great! Awesome tour to kick off our weekend! Thank you so much.

Our tour guide Patrick was hysterical! Made the 90 minute ride pass by to quickly, in a good way. Ask him for his hot dog water soup recipe

Awesome tour full of history, beautiful views and cool facts about the area! Our guide was super knowledgeable and fun! Delicious stuffy and cold beer Will be back again!

Very nice scenic cruise of Newport Harbor. The commentary was pleasant and not overly intrusive. All-in-all a very enjoyable experience.

The boat ride was very fun. Christian (the guide) was hilarious and slightly edgy. I recommend sitting on the top for a better experience overall. If you go to the bathroom it is a little shaky. It is a phenomenal experience.

Tour guide was funny and very knowledgeable of the history of the area toured. The entire crew were very friendly and fun to talk with. The cruise was very smooth. Can't wait to go again! The complmentary coffee cabinet was great too!

Patrick's narration was informative and entertaining! Matt's took excellent care of us before cruise started and arranged for Alex Pedi-Powe to meet us post cruise! we'll done Maties!

Clean, comfortable and on time. Personable, knowledgeable, and humorous narrator. Skilled Captain at the helm.

We did the afternoon sightseeing cruise which was great. Patrick was the narrator and was very educational and funny which made the cruise very enjoyable. Highly recommend!

Great tour guide, not only knowledgeable but very entertaining. Relaxing, informative and fun trip. Well worth $$

Took the Gansett Cruise boat tour the morning before a friends' wedding, and it was the perfect "field trip" activity for a group for of us to get up and moving in the morning and see the sights. The waitstaff was prompt, serving Narragansett beers, mimoas and also liquor drinks. Highly recommend!

Wonderful cruise! Patrick was great and I learned so much (and I am a native Rhode Islander). Highly highly recommend!

Awesome tour of the incredible sight of Newport Harbor with an hilarious tour guide. Absolutely recommend!

The boat was a nice size, clean and comfortable. The staff was friendly and very fun. Very informative with the history of the area. I would defiantly be taking another trip from them again. Here are some photos from my sunset cruise with them. Such a great night. Glad I found them.

If you are in the area you must DEFINITELY go on this cruise. Our guide Patrick wonderful. Funny and very knowledgeable. You will not be disappointed.

A great way to tour Newport waterways. The boat was small enough to be comfortable with seating arrangement One didn't feel crowded. We have been coming to Newport every summer for over twenty years and have been on many boat tours. We found Patrick to be very witty and informative and learned both trivia and facts that we hadn't heard on previous tours. Well worth the cost and time.

Went on a sunset cruise and loved it. Drinks were good and the stuffed quahog that was included was yummy! We were lucky enough to have great weather. The narrated tour was very informative as well. Was able to see beautiful mansions, yachts, and the Newport Bridge. Would definitely recommend!

The tour, humorously and expertly narrated by Patrick, was a visual delight! Newport has some of the most amazing sunsets I've ever seen. This is a wonderful way to both experience the beauty of Nature and to learn a lot of things about Newport. As part of the excursion, you're offered a complimentary glass of champagne and a RI "stuffie". I had a broken foot and wore a boot, but the boat and the ride were very comfortable. We highly recommend it!

We stumbled across this activity and were glad we did. The hour and a half trip around Newport Harbor didn't seem that long. Our guide, Patrick, was a wealth of information about Newport and the sights even though he isn't from Newport. He was very amusing and handled a very talkative customer with great tact. My recommendation as to where to sit: if possible, sit up top and in the right side.

Your view won't be blocked and most every point of interest addressed is on the land which is on the left side of the boat. Also, they do sell drinks, but have a complimentary special snack and champagne toast. Don't forget cash to leave a tip!

Excellent cruise, one of the best. We go every year. The on-board narrators are fantastic and Patrick was awesome, so much fun! The sights are amazing and you'll take lots of great pics to show your friends. Hear about Newport history and legend as well as some pirate tales. This is a must-do!

We had a great experience with Gansett. The cruise left on time and the crew was professional and friendly. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and had a fantastic sense of humor. I highly recommend it!

The Mimosa Harbor Tour was Such a great way to start the day! Enjoyed the cruise with friends and was nice to meet others on the cruise as well Will be checking out the other tours as well!

My Wife & I took The Gansett for a Sunset tour this past September. It was the most perfect evening. Great staff on an immaculate boat, taking an informative tour of the harbor. Patrick was a plethora of knowledge. Drinks were made well. Enjoyed the complimentary "stuffies" and the champagne. Highly recommended.

Loved it! Would like to go again. We went on the 5 o'clock sunset tour and the views were stunning. The tour guide was entertaining and informational. The complementary stuffed clam was tasty. I would definitely recommend this tour to friends!
