A 2nd Great Cruise & There Will Be More
American Queen Cruise Review by DebMike1990
- Sail Date: Jun 2018
- Destination: North America River
We just finished cruising the Mississippi on the American Queen Riverboat. What a wonderful trip we had. The food was excellent and they have great selections. If you have special dietary needs they go out of the way to prepare them for you.The service is impeccable . Beer & wine is free with dinner.
There are plenty of activities on the boat and free hop on/hop off excursions that are free in each river port you stop. There are also premium excursions that you buy. We did Angola Prison, A Plantation, and the Vicksburg Civil War Battlegrounds. All are excellent.
The entertainment is above any other boat I have been on by far. They are shows nightly and one is better than the other. There was also a sock hop and karaoke nights which are a lot of fun. Music in the bar afterwards as well.
And if you just want to relax, you can sit on the front porch in a nice rocking chair, spend some time in the Mark Twain library or just wander the beautiful boat. You just might run into Mark Twain.
We will definitely book another trip soon.
Cabin Review
The Cabins is decorated in the Mark Twain Era and is beautiful. The bathrooms are hotel style baths not the tiny cruise ship baths. We had an open balcony which was really nice,
