Review for a U.S.A. Cruise on American Eagle (ACL)

We disembarked from our week cruise on Monday. This was our 2nd sailing with ACL. The food: the food was always wonderful, reminding me of being in a restaurant in France, plated nicely, perfect portions. The beef is on the rare side, so I had to send it back for my hubby who prefers med to well. The taste was still there, though. Alcohol: While we are not drinkers, there was wine and beer ...

We love American cruise lines. It is geared for the older population. You are treated with respect and compassion. The ship we were on, the American Star only holds about 100 passengers, but there were only 50+ passengers. It felt like having your own private yacht. The onboard entertainer Mark Farris was wonderful. The cruise director Jenn Starr was amazing. The guest speaker Dale was so ...

We have traveled a lot, but have missed much of the USA. Our friends recommended American Cruise Lines (ACL) for both the quality of the cruise and the excellent on-board speakers and entertainment all keyed to the river and itinerary. We are seeing America on American Cruise Line. We didn't know about the St. John's river prior to this trip, and while we have visited Florida many times have ...

Our friends recommended American Cruise Lines to us, and this is our 6th cruise with ACL and now have sailed on their older small boats as well as the larger more luxurious boats. We spent the night at the Hyatt Regency for a relaxing overnight stay prior to boarding the Star which was anchored immediately in-front of the Hotel. Boarding (as always with ACL) was easy, with lots of help and ...

We had an incredible Thanksgiving cruise on the American Star. We've never spent Thanksgiving on a cruise ship but after the experience we had with American Cruise Lines this year on the Star, I think we will always plan our future Thanksgivings aboard ACL. No cooking, no cleanup, no relatives!!! I hope you can read the menu, it was unbelievable the amount of dishes they had. Cocktail hour was ...

We wanted a cruise close to our home in North Carolina and the Great Rivers of Florida on American Cruise Line fit the bill. We cruised the St Johns, ICW and went to Amelia Island and down to St Augustine. While the American Star is one of ACL older ships it was in grand condition. The crew was one of the best we have encountered. Dining was a great experience, Happy Hour was special and gave us ...

Tho I have been to Florida several times in the past, as in every state, country there are always new and different part to discover. I've heard of the St John River but had never been on it. Have always been curious about the manatees and their habitat so was anxious to have the opportunity to explore their 'home'. On the boat tour we saw a number of different birds, and other animals as well. ...

Review for a U.S.A. Cruise on American Independence (formerly Independence)

6-10 Cruises • Age 70s

We selected to cruise the Great Rivers of Florida for several reasons. We liked the time of year, the ports we were visiting, the size of the ship and our expectations with American Cruise Lines as we have sailed with them before. The embarkation process was simple. The ship was docked directly across the street from a parking garage, making it simple to get from the car to the ship. Our ...

Our 10th Cruise - The Great Rivers of Florida

We also took the Great Rivers of Florida cruise in 2019 as our 9th cruise. We had to take this cruise again because we had vouchers from a cruise that was canceled because of COVID. The vouchers expired by the end of 2021, so our options were limited. On both of these cruises, Lake George was included as one of our destinations. I would very much have enjoyed cruising Lake George and observing the ...

We were looking for a trip in the US and this one on the Intracoastal Waterway was a good deal compared to the same trip on the same boat with Road Scholar. Based on reviews on this site we weren't sure what condition the boat would be in. The boat had new carpeting and paint and was in good shape. The stateroom was good sized and comfortable. Our only issue was that the shower wasn't ...
