Passengers enjoyed delicious American food, award winning entertainment and quaint shops for regional gifts.
The Mississippi Queen and the American Queen were larger and featured modern amenities like small pools, verandah cabins, and elevators between decks. The luxury of these floating palaces had to be experienced to be believed. Time on these steamboats was as active or as relaxing as you made it.
