January marks the start of what's known in the travel biz as Wave Season, when cruise lines reveal some really great promotions, and 2021 is full steam ahead with booking future travel. In the case of the American Queen, pictured above, it's actual steam! She's the largest steamboat ever built (with a rare, working steam calliope!) and an American ship with an all-American crew sailing the Mississippi River and its tributaries. American Queen Steamboat Company also sails in the Pacific Northwest along the Snake and Columbia Rivers. You don't need to travel abroad to indulge in a river cruise! Their iconic paddle wheelers are gorgeous, have top entertainment and great cuisine, feature a bevvy of inclusions (including bevvies!), and tons of included shore activities with local guides right from their own hop on, hop off buses that follow you along the river from town to town. My favorite aspect of American Queen Steamboat Company is their "riverlorian" on each sailing who gives daily lectures and destination information. If you ever fantasized about a Mark Twain style float down the rivers of America, I can help make that dream come true! They have new, exciting themed cruises in 2021 and 2022 focusing on wine, music, holiday celebrations, and even a new partnership with Vacaya for a New Orleans sailing in November 2021 that will be the first US-based river cruise in LGBT+ travel history!
I've gathered a list of Wave Season offers for river cruise lines I highly recommend, and remember that year-round Nine Muses Travel has access to amenities, extra on-board credits, and more - in addition to what's listed below.
