Your Ship
American Symphony
The riverboat with the widest range in the fleet, and a Gulf Coast week that leaves the river entirely
Aboard
- Fifth of American Cruise Lines' modern riverboats, delivered in 2022
- A four-story glass atrium through the middle of the ship
- Fifth-deck skywalk with an elliptical skylight over the Ellipse Café below
- An opening bow and retractable gangway, she lands on the levee itself
- Works the Tennessee, the Cumberland, the Ohio, both Mississippis and the Arkansas
- A winter Gulf Coast run from New Orleans to Pensacola, on salt water
Ashore
Where You Stop
US Rivers
America's Rivers
The Mississippi, the Columbia and the Snake aboard small ships that dock in the middle of town: no passport, no flight over an ocean, and a different American city every morning.
- Best Time to Go
- April to November, with fall color on the Mississippi in October
- Typical Length
- 7 to 15 nights
