Dear Vacations To Go Customer,
American Queen Voyages celebrates its 10
th anniversary
of sailing the great rivers of the U.S. this year. The company's modern,
elegant paddlewheelers cruise the Mississippi, Ohio, Tennessee,
Cumberland and Illinois rivers in America's heartland and the Columbia
and Snake rivers in the Pacific Northwest.
Our customers can take advantage of these terrific offers on the line's
cruises:
Enjoy huge savings of 50%
on cruises departing this year. Also, get $100 per couple in onboard
credit.
Book by May 26.
Save up to $2,000 per couple
on cabin upgrades for many other river cruises and receive $100 per
couple in onboard credit. Plus, on select departures, you can
save an additional 10%
as part of the company's Anniversary Sale.
American Queen Voyages' river vessels resemble classic 19th-century
steamboats but boast all the comforts of contemporary cruising. The
American Queen
is the largest steamboat operating overnight cruises on the Mississippi
River and its tributaries. It serves as the company's flagship and
features a beautiful steam calliope on board.
The company's newest ship, the
American Countess,
debuted last year. It features a sleek, contemporary design and plenty
of open space for guest gatherings, especially the portside bar, which
offers expansive panoramic views.
Rounding out the collection of authentic paddlewheelers are the
American Duchess,
a boutique-style riverboat that features four two-story loft suites, and
the
American Empress,
which explores the picturesque Columbia and Snake rivers and houses a
unique collection of Native American art. The American Empress is the
largest overnight riverboat west of the Mississippi.
American Queen Voyages has a number of themed itineraries available,
including its
Special Edition
sailings. These thoughtfully planned cruises pair lively onboard
events with exclusive shore excursions. Sample flavors of the Pacific
Northwest on
wine cruises
this fall or visit special holiday markets featuring local artisans on
Holidays on the River.
There are also
American Culinary Experience
sailings hosted by the line's Culinary Ambassador, Chef Regina
Charboneau, offering onboard cooking demonstrations and port
explorations with regional chefs.
The line also operates small-ship coastal cruises and expedition
sailings in North America. These ships visit inland harbors, secluded
bays and charming ports in destinations like the Great Lakes, Eastern
Canada and New England, the southeastern United States, Alaska and
Mexico. To see all of these sailings,

Cruise fares include a pre-cruise hotel night, guided tours, regionally
inspired cuisine, live onboard entertainment, all-day room service,
Wi-Fi and unlimited soft drinks and specialty coffees throughout the
trip. Enjoy choice spirits, wine and local craft beer -- all included in
the price.
