Review summary

I really enjoyed my relaxing cruise. Staff really catered to all of our needs. Cruise price included daily excursions which were fascinating. I had the chance to visit museums and very interesting plantations and found the tour guides to be excellent. The civil war guide was really a wealth of information. Back on the ship we had relevant lectures and the opportunity to take a fun art class. In the evening we had local entertainers who were very enjoyable. We even had a piano player who gladly played our requests. It was impossible to go hungry on the ship as in addition to three meals there was a daily cocktail hour and snacks available 24/7 in the lounge. In fact in the afternoon we even had homemade cookies. Since the ship was small we got to know other passengers and crew which really made for a special experience. Thank you American Cruise Line for providing such a nice experience.
