We sailed on The Columbia & Snake river on American Harmony!! From the minute we arrived at the ship the deck crew met and carried our luggage directly to our stateroom, no waiting. Unpacking when well with ample storage space and closet. Each stateroom comes with a balcony, two chairs and a table.
The crew was outstanding, from John Moretta the Hotel General Manager (who we had the privilege ...
We were interested in cruising on a small ship and have heard excellent comments about American Cruise Lines.
We took the ACL American Constellation on a delightful experience around the San Juan islands recently. We saw all kinds of wildlife, and our favorite was whales! Such magnificant creatures are a true fascination. The cabin was wonderfully spacious and especially the bathroom, with an ...
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 did this cruise because Memphis/ Mississippi/Graceland were on our bucket list. American Cruiselines are not cheap but well worth the extra cost. The ship was spotless, food fabulous and staff were amazing. Loved that the tour bus followed the ship so that we could take the coach at every port. (Great for those difficulty with walking). I am vegan and the Executive Chef Guy catered for me ...
My friend and I selected this cruise for this year based on the terrific itinerary that would bring us to the Chesapeake Bay and Potomac River. We booked the trip in 2021 and the reviews we read were from 2019, a year after the ship launched and before the pandemic. They were wonderful. We didn’t think to go back and read reviews again, but did so while we were on the cruise - what a ...
We selected the San Juan Islands Tulip Festival Cruise to visit Skagit Valley for the annual tulip festival held every April. It rivals visiting the fields of Holland without the overseas travel. We spent time in Tulip Towne and were given a private escorted tour of the farm operations. It was very informative and educational. Anyone with an interest in gardening would love it.
The cruise ...
I decided to write a review on my recently completed American Cruise Lines cruise. Rather than the typical short review I decided to be truly informative for those of you who have only done ocean cruises and never ones on a 140-170 passenger river cruise which stays in US water ways.
I've been on nearly 60 cruises, and to about 90 countries. Our world has many wonderful places to visit but ...
March/April 2023 - My wife and I have been on numerous cruises (26+) throughout the world on various cruise lines over the years. This was our forth cruise on American Cruise Lines. Our American Revolution cruise started on March 26 in Baltimore, MD. This was the first cruise of the season.
We came down to Baltimore from Newark, NJ where we were visiting, on an Amtrak train. We stayed at ...
This cruise, besides highlighting the Revolutionary War, was a Cherry Blossom theme. Since the blossoms were early this year, the itinerary was adjusted to include Washington DC first to be sure to catch their beauty near their peak. There were talks about the history of the cherry blossoms onboard plus excursions, including walking tours, which highlighted the cherry blossoms. All the art ...
Friends asked us to join them. This was supposed to be a cruise from San Francisco to the inland rivers of California and then back. It was hugely expensive (over 6K per person.) A week or so before the cruise, they informed us the cruise would not be leaving from San Francisco (no definitive reason given) but would start and end on the river in Sacramento, CA. We endured an uncomfortable 2+ ...
