Wonderful relaxing two days....
We are talking about going again in the fall when the leaves are changing and birds are migrating. The La Crosse Queen has a split sternwheel, and each half is run by a twin diesel engine that powers hydraulic motors, which turn the paddles. The split paddlewheel gives the Queen greater maneuverability and dependability. Individual public reservations will become available in Spring of 2021—Group reservations are now available for 2021. Our tasty Captains Sunday Brunch menu, complete with full bar service available.
Upcoming Cruises
Sit back and relax while the La Crosse Queen paddles along the main channel. A tasty, chef-carved prime rib and chicken dinner will be provided in a fine dining atmosphere. As a special treat on this two-and-a-half-hour riverboat cruise, we will “lock thru” Lock and Dam No. 7, river conditions permitting. St. Paul is an exciting place to end your riverboat cruise adventure on the Mississippi River.
History buffs will enjoy a walking tour of Summit Avenue, which highlights gorgeous historic mansions built in the late 1800’s. St. Paul’s enchanting art galleries, world-class museums, and entertaining stage performances will capture your imagination. End the day by visiting Mounds Park, where visitors are treated to a beautiful panoramic view of the city. Cruising the Mississippi River and its tributaries with American Cruise Lines is an extraordinary journey through history. From Colonial pioneers to entrepreneurs, much of America’s story has been forged – or fought – along their length. The Mississippi River is navigable from New Orleans, Louisiana to the Twin Cities of Minnesota, and forms a maritime corridor through the U.S. heartland.

Since 1716, when the French first built a fort here among the Natchez Indians, the town has grown to boast elaborate mansions built by planters in the 1800s to flaunt their wealth. Meaning “red stick,” Baton Rouge’s 1699 French name references an ancient geographical marker and reflects the city’s long history.
