Cruise News

Have you ever wondered what this country looked like to its early explorers and pioneers? Traveling on the Mighty Mississippi and its tributaries aboard the American Queen, you will be transported back in time, to an era of leisurely and romantic travel. Storybook American towns and vibrant, bustling cities provide a bit of excitement between peaceful fields of gold, majestic, soaring mountains and high bluffs. Broad, sweeping deltas and deep blue fjords are the same visions that compelled the works of Mark Twain. There’s no better way to see America than from the perspective of the river, for the river has played a tremendous role in the shaping of this beautiful country and the lives of the people who inhabit it.

American Queen Steamboat Company's new 22 Night/23 Day Mighty Mississippi voyages introduce a whole new appreciation for the region’s diversity. After three fabulous weeks cruising amidst the Antebellum charms and gracious style of the American Queen, you will forever be changed.
