We were referred by a friend/colleague who had been on more than one cruise with this company. The cruise is designed for more mature passengers which was very nice. No one was loud, rude or drunk on this cruise. When I considered that most of the excursions were included in the fee, it is comparable to other cruise lines. I really liked that they didn't try to "nickel and dime" you for photos, tourist mementos, etc. There were families with young children on board, but it was good. The staff service was exceptional. Most were college students doing internships or recent graduates. Its hard physical labor for them, but they demonstrate a very good attitude. The lecturers were from Minneapolis, Minnesota - Steve and Joann. They were very interesting; I highly recommend being on one of their cruises - especially the upper Mississippi near there home.

We will consider using this company again. We were celebrating a retirement and loved it.

Cabin Review

Two twin beds pushed together to make a king. This boat was commissioned in 2015, so it is very clean and fresh and the furniture is not worn. The color scheme is pleasant and peaceful.
