Thanks to its 100% COVID-19 vaccination mandate, taking effect today, American Queen Steamboat Co. will no longer require travelers to have a pre-cruise PCR test, wear masks on board or stick to ‘bubble’ excursions.

They can once again take part in unrestricted hop-on, hop off shore excursions. And crew — who also are required to be vaccinated— won’t need to wear masks, either.
