The high point was the personable & prompt staff, the shore excursions & on board entertainment were disappointing. As I'm typing I can hear "Little Deuce Coupe" out my window on Clearwater Beach, don't expect anything like that, lol. It was our 1st time w/this cruise line & we didn't realize they evidentially target an older audience. No Beach Boys or Eagles, just Sinatra & Sammy. No Jeopardy or Trivial Pursuit, just cards. The tours needed more prior overviews or direction/explanation, then the final at Annapolis was too rushed, yikes. The rooms were lovely, great decor, verrry small showers tho. Food was fine too & since alcohol was included lounges often crowded. Since we don't drink, but went for the history, the over 7k per person for cheapest balcony room was a first. Internet was included but no reception to speak of, had to borrow the phone of great hotel mgr Mike, to get reception. So in the dining room Logan, Ali, Anna were tops. On deck Josh & Tess always smiled & waved. On tender Kevin, Manolo & Willie, & Shay in housekeeping helped. Crew, u were the keepers! Read Less

From my first contact by phone with the cruise agent through the debarkation, everyone and everything was a most pleasant experience. I have been on several cruises and this ranks near the top of the list. First and foremost was the attentiveness and attitude of the entire crew which was directed t making our trip pleasant and enjoyable. The fact that passenger count was small (at capacity) allowed for interaction between everyone which made for a most comfortable time and conversation with all. The ship provided ready access to every public area and was clean and well manned. Our cabin was large by cruise ship standards and dining was excellent. The entertainment was good and their was always something to do. All personnel were dedicated to providing first class service to all passengers. The ports were well chosen and provided good shore experiences. I would most assuredly use American Cruise Lines again. Read Less

We have been on many large boat cruises over the years. We have decided to vacation in the USA for a number of reasons safety as one. Someone mentioned American Cruise Lines. We reviewed their cruise options and selected the American Revolution. The ports of call and tours were excellent . I was not alive in 1607. What our forefathers went through is amazing . If you want a little American History this cruise is for you. Jamestown, Yorktown, Williamsburg , Norfolk Naval yard, Naval Academy in Annapolis and more. We even visited Mt Vernon. Walked thru George Washington's house . The topper Washington DC. We had made prior arrangements through our Congressman and did a tour of the White House. This small boat experience exceeded our expectations. Very intimate , Great food , Great service ,Great tours, Large cabins, On board entertainment and Hosted Happy Hour every night. We will be sailing with American again. Read Less

This was my first time to be a single traveler and my first time on a small ship. I was apprehensive at first, but quickly made friends and really enjoyed the trip. I was surprised about the amenities on the ship as my previous sailing had been on medium size and large size ships. I found the single cabin to be very cozy and really enjoyed the balcony. Having fresh air available was great. The crew were very quick to respond to any request. The shore trips were well planed and adequately scheduled. I was disappointed that we were late arriving at one location and had a very "quick" shore trip. Of course, like most others, I gained weight with the excellent dining. The only problem was making decisions at breakfast for lunch and dinner. In fact, I enjoyed the trip so much I have scheduled another trip for 2017. Read Less
