North America River Cruise Reviews

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 have traveled extensively, both on Viking and with others, and this trip was attractive as an alternative to an annual trip or two overseas. It was to an area of the Country with which we had little exposure and, seemed like a great idea. There were highs and lows as befits a new ship. We found the ship and our Junior suite both attractive in the Viking way and clean. Our cabin attendants ...

We chose this cruise because of the itinerary and previous experience on two Viking ocean cruises in the Scandanavian countries. First of all boarding was no trouble and very straight forward. We arrived at our penthouse veranda suite which was very nice except for the stench of sewage coming from the bathroom shower . It was reported and after about 3 days the stink had subsided. The cabin was ...

We were on a previous Viking Ocean cruise and it was great. Since we live in Florida during the winter, we thought that it would be fun to go to New Orleans and then cruise the Mississippi. We flew on our own with another couple to New Orleans with Southwest Airlines. The flight was on time, the plane had great leg space, and service was superb. We stayed at the Westin Hotel for two nights (those ...

Quite a while ago, my husband and I purchased two cruises on Viking's new Mississippi River ship - a cruise that we got cancelled from by Viking (America's Heartland) in September, 2022 and the one we just took but wish we hadn't in January, 2023 (New Orleans & Southern Charms). When Viking cancelled us in September because our cabin wasn't finished, we lost $500 in airfare. So, I asked for the ...

We have wanted to do a cruise of the Mississippi River for many years. With the launch of the new Viking Mississippi, we decided to take a roundtrip New Orleans cruise, leaving January 7, 2023. Our overall result was a very relaxing week cruise on the mighty, muddy Mississippi and some acquired knowledge of the region. We understand that Viking made a huge investment in this ship, which was ...

The American Symphony was christened in 2022, it is a lovely ship with so many areas away from your staterooms which are larger than most and beautifully appointed, including a reading room, game room, and office with two computers, which came in handy when getting your boarding pass for your return home . Our stops along the great Mississippi river were Natchez, Vicksburg, St. Francisville, ...

The beautifully appointed American Melody was a great place to celebrate the beginning of 2023! Decorated for the holidays with tasteful wreaths, a ‘tree of poinsettias” in the lobby, and a decorated tree in the River Lounge. As soon as you boarded the ship you had a visual reminder that this was a holiday-themed cruise. SPECIAL IT WAS! The entire crew was outstanding and the service was ...

First and foremost, the accolades go to the crew of the 2022/23 Holiday Cruise. American Cruise Line must have hand selected their A plus PLUS employees to join together to make this a seamless and enjoyable voyage. Under the leadership of Hotel General Manager Shavar Cubit, this year’s cruise definitely had extra festive elements for its guests – a gingerbread house making session, tasteful ...
