Give Your Euro Cruise River Legs A Try At Home

Posted onAuthorChris Owen

So the idea of a European river cruise sounds good; iconic landmarks, UNESCO World Heritage Sites, sailing on the original highways of the world. Yes!  But then there’s the price tag, without a doubt higher than an equivalent amount of time on a major cruise line in the Caribbean. And you have to fly a long way. These couple of issues do indeed prevent travelers from enriching their cruise history on a European River Cruise.  Then there’s the other objection: “Would I like it?” Hard to say.  So what about giving your river cruise legs a try on an American river cruise?

American Cruise Lines is the largest U.S.-flagged cruise line and recently announced it will be adding a new 11-day American Revolution Cruise itinerary to its 2018 cruise schedule.
