We loved this cruise! The Pacific Northwest is a beautiful place to cruise with spectacular scenery and some very interesting history as well. American Cruise Lines did an excellent job of showing off this scenery as well as making the history come alive with the resident historian, Bill. The excursions were fun and informative as we got to see in person the places we were learning about as we ...

We had never been to this area before and worried that it might be too hot or smoky in the summer, but we had good breezes throughout, with minimal smoke and the entire ship is cooled perfectly. Our room was larger than most of the big cruise lines, and we enjoyed the smaller ship with about 130 passengers onboard. All were friendly and warm and we liked sitting with new people at any table and at ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 50s

We had a family of five: my 86 year old mother, my sister and her husband in their 50/60's, their teenage daughter, myself in my 50's. My mom took us on this cruise to get us to love cruising, and it worked! This cruise was really geared to age 40 and up, the teenager only went along because it was part of a much longer trip, and while she enjoyed some of the ports, it was not the best experience ...

We wanted to see the river and escape our Las Vegas heat. Except for a couple of hot days in the east, mission accomplished. We learned there were terrible forest fires to our south, but we never saw the smoke. The Oregon scenery, seen from the Snake and Columbia Rivers, is spectacular. Passage through locks included. A river cruise is the way to do it, although ACL is still getting its act ...

The ship was relatively new and very nice with plenty of room in cabins and lounges. That is about all that I can say that was good The service was terrible, often so slow that you had to leave without your food to meet tour times etc. The menu mediocre at best, breakfast had no fruit, no yogurt, no pastries wonder bread and limited choices. Lunch and dinner was about the same. We did have 2 ...

We cruised on The American Song through American Cruise Lines on the Columbia and Snake Rivers from Spokane to Portland. We chose this cruise because it was a domestic cruise, but most importantly because they touted their ability and concern for the health and welfare of passengers. That was not the case. We were supposed to be tested before getting on the bus for the port. Didn’t happen. ...

The Good: Entire staff was wonderful and attentive. In particular Wait Staff Housekeeping, Excursion Director, was GREAT! The food was above average for cruise ships. Free flowing beverages with top shelf brands. Great assortment of wines. PPP and Covid Testing : If you look on their website and emails they sent they basically lied We were to be tested at Spokane ...

We hadn't been anywhere since February 2020. No boat, airplane or bus and after all our ocean and European cruises were cancelled, we decided to try this. My husband had read "Undaunted Courage" and always wanted to try the cruise on the Columbia/Snake River following the Lewis and Clark Expedition. The American Song was built in 2019 and was a pretty new ship. We flew to Spokane via Minneapolis. ...
