What you can expect

Enjoy a sightseeing cruise of Newport Harbour aboard a classic motor yacht and discover the city's coastline from the water. Rum Runner II is a classic motor yacht similar to the rum running boats of the 1920's. Sit back and enjoy as our knowledgeable and informative crew provide narration about scenic estates, the Castle Hill Lighthouse, naval history, as well as Newport's rich and famous!

Take advantage of the covered area or soak up the sun on the open section of the deck. Don't hesitate to bring an extra layer because weather conditions can change rapidly and temperatures are lower on the water than on shore. Sun cream and a hat are suggested when sitting on deck. Don’t forget to bring a camera!

Enjoy a drink on board after purchasing tickets at our booth before your trip. This cruise is not BYOB. Any group of 10 or more people, booked together or separately, is subject to an automatic 15% service charge.
