Onboard Experience
No two days are the same aboard the floating masterpiece that is the American Duchess where spacious elegance awaits aboard. Combining the best of the old and the new, this beautiful lady epitomizes the grace and grandeur that have made cruising on the Mississippi River a cherished American tradition for more than two centuries. Your day starts with breakfast onboard, saying hello to the folks you became friends with the day before. The river has many stories to share, many that are created as each visitor uniquely explores ashore; the Mississippi's legacy is one that flows from its headwaters to the Gulf of Mexico in New Orleans. Aboard American Duchess, you'll watch landscapes, cultures and even language transform – each new experience equally as rare and beautiful as the last – and a new chapter awaits around each river bend. Time aboard the ship might be spent in the Fitness Center | Pilot House | River Grill and Bar Theater | Front Porch Cafe | Engine Room Viewing | Grand Saloon | Spa Main Deck Lounge | J.M. White Dining Room | Engine Room Bar | Emporium Mark Twain Gallery | Ladies' Parlor | Gentlemen's Card Room... and more.

Combining the best of the old and the new, a cruise aboard American Duchess epitomizes the grace and grandeur that have made cruising on the Mississippi River a cherished American tradition for more than two centuries.
