YOUR ONBOARD EXPERIENCE
Your onboard experience is as important as your onshore experience. American Cruise Lines takes special care in providing the best in service, accommodations, entertainment, dining, all in an elegant yet comfortable environment.
The all-American crew is there to see to all your needs, with the goal of providing you with the most memorable adventure possible.
YOUR ONBOARD ACTIVITIES
Not only does American Cruise Lines provide unique ports on its cruises but unique entertainment as well. Activities are designed to highlight the areas in which you visit including guest lecturers, local musicians, demonstrations, theatrical performances and games.
From a performance by a fife and drum corps on Chesapeake Bay, a visit from a local lobsterman in Maine or a visit from costumed antebellum characters in the historic south, activities are as rich in history and culture as the ports themselves.
Unlike the ocean cruise ships, you won't find glitzy shows or casinos. Instead American Cruise Lines offers a refreshingly casual atmosphere with an intimate ambience that is perfect for congenial camaraderie with fellow passengers and quiet relaxation.
Open decks and glassed-in observation lounges allow for the watching of passing scenery and wildlife, while a well-stocked library provides reading material and videos focusing on the areas to be visited.
YOUR DINING EXPERIENCE
American Cruise Lines makes it a top priority to offer a first-class dining experience at every meal. Expect exceptional cuisine prepared by chefs who have extensive credentials and training from some of the most prestigious culinary institutes.
The crew offers an outstanding level of service to make the most discerning passenger's journey memorable and relaxing. Dining onboard is information, dress is smart casual and seating is unassigned and served in the glass-enclosed dining room where every seat offers a panoramic view.
Using only the freshest ingredients, menus are inspired by regional and local specialties. Each evening before dinner passengers are invited to mingle and share their day's adventures over complimentary cocktails and hors d'oeuvres.
YOUR ONBOARD LECTURERS
In order to enhance your cruise experience American Cruise Lines invites carefully selected experts to join us on board. Through informal lectures, open discussions and activites, they bring local history, nature and culture alive with their knowledge and passion for American heritage.
