Queen of the Mississippi



Prices from $3995
7-night/8-day cruise along the Mississippi River!

Journey to the heart and soul of America on The Queen of the Mississippi.  While the churn of the paddlewheel blends with the sounds of the river, you’ll rediscover the America of the pioneers, the America of boundless optimism and unlimited possibilities. 

Reflect upon the role St. Louis played in the opening of the American frontier as you cruise past the famed Gateway Arch on the greatest sternwheeler to ever grace the Mississippi River. In Hannibal, become reacquainted with one of the world’s most beloved authors at the Mark Twain Boyhood Home and Museum. Cruising the Mississippi River on a sternwheeler is a true all-American experience. The Queen of the Mississippi will recreate the grandeur of past riverboats while possessing the latest safety, environmental and construction technologies. The ship will have the look of a traditional riverboat along with more amenities, a faster speed, and an unmatched level of comfort. Features include six unique lounges, a library, an elegant dining salon, elevator service to all decks, and exceptionally large staterooms. With only 140 passengers, each guest will receive personalized service in the intimate and friendly atmosphere for which American Cruise Lines has become known.  With sliding glass doors to access private balconies on all third and fourth deck staterooms and suites, you will experience breathtaking scenery from the privacy of your spacious stateroom as the Queen of the Mississippi makes it way idly down the river.  You will also experience first class service with just the lift of a finger. All staterooms and suites will feature a telephone system that can be used to call for room service at any time of the day. Enjoy breakfast served on your private balcony as the sun rises over the Mississippi River or enjoy a late night snack as you gaze at the stars.
