New Years Eve docked at Savannah with thousands watching fireworks while sipping bubbly.. it does not get better than that! This was our 7th trip with American Cruise Lines. This ship(Not a Boat) is comfortable for those who do not like rough seas because it has stabilizers and mostly stays within docile coastal waterways. We were on its Maiden voyage some years back and we can vouch for the fact it is as good as new. The crew is well trained to keep things in order and we always feel a bit pampered in all respects. The dining room has a menu from which you choose all 3 meals for the day. Want something not on the menu; they will accommodate you. Shore tours are worthwhile and fit the history and attractions of the area. For example, we had never been on a 65 foot Shrimp/Lobster trawler before but we did that on this cruise and learned about sea creatures from a seasoned crew and Naturalist. Nightly entertainment is informal and sometimes we all join in. Every day prior to dinner there is a complimentary cocktail hour with light food. The dress code is casual. We have booked cruise number 8 for 2017 on sister cruise line Pearl Seas. look forward to more high adventure from the Canadian Maritines and American Cruise Lines. Mary and Alan
