Cruise America's Rivers

I want a relaxing vacation where I don’t have to lift a finger and can sleep all day if I wish. I was thinking of another cruise.

Maybe a river cruise, but I didn’t want the long flight and expense to get to the European port not to mention the rather pricey river cruises there.

I heard about American riverboat cruises and looked them up. Wow. I was surprised.

If you like to cruise and you’ve been on all of ships plying the Caribbean, Mexican coast, and the glaciers, maybe you’re looking for something a little different too.

American Riverboat Cruises

I’ve never thought about cruising America’s rivers and bays nor have I spoken to anyone who has. American Cruise Lines cruise all of America’s well-known waterways from east to west. You can do the glacier thing too if you like that.

With 12 ships and a wide selection of dates and destinations, chances are you can get a great river cruise vacation for a good price and without the higher airfare expense of traveling to Europe.

Their ships are the newest and most environmentally friendly small cruise ships and riverboats in America.

They say that “attentive and personalized service is the hallmark” of their cruise line, and they offer “exquisite cuisine from highly trained chefs” with locally sourced ingredients.

From what I read online, they offer complimentary experiences like evening cocktail hours, pre-cruise hotel stays, and exciting shore excursions on select cruises.

Private balconies have sliding glass doors to spacious private balconies with panoramic river views from every angle, daily entertainment, a large selection of staterooms, and their ships are American built, flagged, and crewed.

With 35 cruise itineraries, they visit 28 states in America. The final deciding factor? They have free WiFi.

Takeaway Truth

By the way, this is not a paid endorsement, but something I checked into and am adding to our vacation wish list. However, I wouldn’t be opposed to getting a free trip to try out a riverboat cruise! *LOL*
