Our first time cruise on ACL was the Maine Coast and Harbors. We were scheduled to leave out of Portland ME, but rough seas kept the Eagle in Bath ME. ACL was very accommodating and bused us from Portland to Bath. Arriving at the ship, the boarding process was painless. The crew was most helpful and directed us to the restaurant for lunch while they offloaded the luggage and placed them in our ...
We chose this cruise expecting a first class luxury cruise. We liked the all inclusive aspect of the cruise. However before we even got on board we ran into issues when trying to book shore excursions. The website would register my husbands excursions but not mine. That was all straightened out with a call was made to the cruise line. We had an overnight at the Peabody in Memphis which was great. ...
We have been on multiple cruises with multiple different lines but never on a ship with only 70 passengers. What a treat! This is the oldest of their fleet but most of it had been updated. It is not extravagant but clean and very comfortable. Part of the charm is the way the ship is more like those of the good ole days. No buffets….Sit down meals in a designated dining area (with room service ...
I would like to start with what was good about the cruise. Two individuals stood out on our cruise. Angelica was so personable and engaging on the patio deck. Connie, the server in the dining room was very attentive and and friendly. The rooms were ok. The exploration ports were fine. Enjoyed the Mount St. Helens tour. Has a great time on the Hell Canyon boat trip. So now I will share how poor the ...
I had never been to the northwest of the USA and wanted to see what it was like.
I enjoyed the trip very much. Lots of good food and the staff was friendly.
The wine tasting place, Evoke, was terrible. The wine was not very good and
the person pouring did a bad job.
Dave the cruise director was great as was Cam the excursion director.
The entertainment was very good with the local ...
My husband and I were excited to celebrate our 40th anniversary on a cruise to New England and because of the internet description we thought American Cruise Lines and the American Star would be a good choice. The cruise dates were September 9th through the 16th.
We were disappointed from the moment that we walked on to the boat we noticed that the boat was older and in poor condition.

When my husband and I exited our uber at the Portland Pier, I had a vivid reminder of WHY I started doing "small ship cruising."
Docked behind the beautiful and tastefully appointed American Eagle was a LARGE cruise ship. While we walked up to the American cruise line welcome tent we were given keys to our stateroom in five minutes. We had a glimpse of hundreds of passengers on the 'big' ship ...
It doesn't get much better then visiting ports on the coasts of Maine on a newly designed ship - the latest design on the American Cruise Line fleet. A special thanks to Mother Nature for blessing us with wonderful weather during our seven nights at sea!
The American Eagle is an impressive vessel that embodies casual elegance. The interior is neutral and tasteful and the rooms are spacious ...
Cruising the Inside Passage is a trip everyone should take. I'm so happy we did! The weather was stupendous (even the misty days which have their own style of beauty), the scenery incomparable and as ever, the service impeccable. We were sailing under the trusty and affable Captain Bryan, who makes every voyage a pleasure. Sailing down the Wrangell Narrows was exciting and we saw sea life and ...
This cruise was the second on the new American Eagle and it was wonderful. The ship is modern decor and has a lot of space in the lounge and dining areas. The dining area is set up with many tables having window views and also noise reduction. Lounge areas are well placed on the ship and the outdoor grill is a new feature.
The trip was excellent and we were able to spend time at ...
