The echoes of riverboat travelers from a bygone era resound as you travel the full length of the Mighty Mississippi on the most comprehensive exploration of this legendary river. The enthusiastic all-American crew will welcome you aboard at the start of your journey and share in your excitement along the way. Settle in to your comfortable and spacious stateroom, your home away from home, as you explore America`s enchanting Heartland.
As ten states glide past your vantage point on the sun deck, admire what has been the subject of numerous works of art and the backdrop for countless American novels. Carefully selected local guides will lead you through the vibrant cities of New Orleans and Memphis, as well as the grand southern estates of Natchez and Baton Rouge, and the Civil War battlefields of Vicksburg. Traveling up the river, visit charming small towns including Hannibal, Dubuque, and Davenport, abounding in hometown Americana. In the evening, relax on your private balcony, sip sweat tea, and admire the rolling bucolic landscapes that frame the river.
