The Great American Steamboat Company’s inaugural voyages this spring will be filled with surprise and delight. Genuine southern hospitality will greet us as we call on these towns for the first time in years. We can expect to be greeted by local dignitaries, experience musical fanfare and even see the local children who will be allowed to “play hooky” from school in order to greet the much-loved steamboat, the American Queen.

There is no better time to reserve space aboard an authentic American icon and to be among the first lucky travelers to make history, as the grand American Queen returns to the waterways of America’s Heartland. Contact us today.
