American Cruise Lines

In 2026, the United States will celebrate a once-in-a-generation milestone—the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. To honor this historic occasion, American Cruise Lines is proud to present a year-long Semiquincentennial celebration across more than 50 itineraries along the legendary rivers and scenic waterways of our nation.

We invite you to be part of this extraordinary moment in American history. As the only 100% American-owned and operated cruise line—with every ship built, flagged, and crewed in the USA—we offer an experience that is authentically American in every way.

Throughout 2026, all our cruises will feature special events, commemorative gifts, and patriotic-themed programming that captures the enduring spirit of America. Whether you are a first time guest or loyal traveler, every voyage will offer a unique opportunity for reflection, celebration, and discovery.

On board, indulge in the hallmark comforts of American Cruise Lines: spacious staterooms, private balconies, and an intimate, relaxed atmosphere designed to elevate the journey and honor the legacy of our nation's founding.
