Another great cruise on ACL - first time on a paddlewheel. We really enjoyed the Ohio River - one of the prettiest we've been on. Lots of lochs for those who enjoy watching those operations. Each town had something of interest to see, and learning more about the southern / midwestern culture and history was so enlightening to this westerner.

Loved the games the cruise director led, nightly entertainment was good, guest speaker was excellent.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
Several local bands came on board - our favorite was the Jug band in Kentucky. The guest speaker was not only informative but very funny - quite a comedienne.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
We made such nice connections with several of the staff who went out of their way to provide excellent service.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
The paddlewheel ship was definitely a looker - we always received a wave from those on shore as we went by. There were plenty of lounges on this ship so it never felt crowded.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Loved the size of the cabin, and there was plenty of drawer and closet space. Balcony was lovely at sunset.
Ports of call
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
5 out of 5
Pittsburgh exceeded expectations - what a lively city, felt safe walking around, beautiful architecture - new and old - all nestled in beautiful hills.
