American Queen Steamboat Company Hosts Holiday Sailings

American Queen Steamboat Company invites guests to experience the holiday season on the Lower Mississippi aboard the American Queen and its sister ship the American Duchess.

Holiday sailings this season will include the Christmas markets along the Lower Mississippi River. American Queen Steamboat Company says unlike the large and crowded European markets, Southern Holiday Plantation Markets feature a more intimate experience. As the American Queen Steamboat Company riverboat navigates the Mississippi waters, guests will visit Nottoway Plantation, Louisiana; Natchez, Mississippi; and St. Francisville, Louisiana, where the festivities will be located.

Available Holiday Sailings on the American Queen and the American Duchess include these themed voyages:

Memphis, Tennessee to New Orleans, Louisiana

Guests will experience festive enrichment activities, nightly entertainment and more. American Queen Steamboat Company says natural backdrops provide the sights and sounds of Southern history.
