We absolutely loved our time on the scenic cruise. The tour guide was hoot and we really learned a lot. Originally we had a different time scheduled but due to Mother Nature we had to go at a different time. No big deal and the customer service was phenomenal.

The experience aboard the ship is nice. We enjoyed the route that went close to the Pell bridge, lighthouse and fort Adams. The onboard tour audio was difficult to hear and the speakers accent was too heavy for a southerner like me to understand.
Best time spent!

Such a great way to see the Newport Harbour. The story telling was amazing, the crew was super friendly & really helpful. I really enjoyed my time & I am looking to book another trip with one of their other boats!
