Rum Runner II at Classic Cruises of Newport

We have gone on the sunset cruise many times. Just this past weekend, we snuck down to Newport for a nice dinner. We checked in with the Rum Runner crew to see if we can squeeze in a harbor tour, and they said they were booked... it was 5pm Sat. night after all. She then said, well, check back in with us closer to 5:30 because we just got a call from a party of 10 that has reservations, but is having trouble getting here on time. Well we stood and waited and when the clock struck 5:30pm they allowed us to buy the tickets. They tried unsuccessfully (many times) to reach that party to make sure they weren't running down Thames trying to make it on time. We ended up going and had a great time. I truly appreciated them extending that opportunity to me, but realized if the folks came running, the seats were still theirs. Rum Runners was above and beyond profession. We will be back!

Excellent customer service. Staff clearly and patiently explained the options prior to purchase, and the on board experience was fantastic. The tour itself is excellent. Go on a warm and dry day if you can.

Went on the Lighthouses & Mimosas tour. Thoroughly enjoyed the tour around the sound with knowledgeable and friendly crew.

I've done this cruise twice (one rum punch evening and one strictly soda) and had so much fun both times, met folks on board the journey and we are still good friends today. Not only was it gorgeous weather both times, but we learned lots of local gossip, history, and road alongside celebrity yachts, its the perfect amount of time on the water, and the crew were delightful, if you go to Newport....this is a must!

Such a great time! We rented out the whole boat and took a lighthouse cruise a few days before a wedding. It was such a relaxing way to enjoy the weekend and catch up with friends & family. Not to mention some great sights! Very friendly and fun crew!
