Hi Smitty,
It (the American Queen Steamboat) was a wonderful experience!
We loved the cruise itself, the area, life on the boat (especially the coffee) and the small towns on the way to Memphis. We also enjoyed visiting the engine room, the caliope, biking on the levee in Natchez, the shows and last but not least, the food (editor’s note: they are vegetarians and were surprised by how many vegetarian choices there had)
The best part was the Staff – they were beyond excellent! Helpful doesn’t even begin to describe them – I just can’t say enough! You go on vacation to see things, but the staff was clearly the best part of the deal.
Please find a few photos from our trip attached.
Thank you!
