The American Eagle has 31 staterooms with picture windows and satellite TV's, as well as four lounges and four decks. Unlike most cruise ships, which feature glitzy, casino-style entertainment, American Cruise Lines provide excellent cuisine and relaxation with a local, historical flair.
Onboard activities include lectures by naturalists, historians, and other experts, who "bring the local history, nature and culture alive with their knowledge and passion for American heritage."
Cruise deals rates for a 7-day, 6-night cruise range from $2560 to $3790 per person, and the season runs from June to November. For more information, see www.americancruiselines.com or call 800-814-6880.
