Ship Overview
On the move on a legendary river with a cruise ship that no less deserves to be called a legend: The AMERICAN QUEEN is the largest paddle steamer ever built, designed with great attention to detail and a fine sense of Southern charm. At home on the Mississippi River, she takes her guests on a spectacular journey that not only takes them through the American Southern states, but also through time.

The vessel’s spa is the ideal venue for pampering and treatment options include butter wraps, scrub wraps, and massages, while those who want to keep an eye on their fitness while on their river cruise should head to the American Queen’s state-of-the-art gym.
