Majestic America Line: Cruise Through History

Majestic America Line embraces the rich tradition of cruising—elegant staterooms, deluxe amenities, fine dining—and embellishes it with state-of-the-art technology and spectacular itineraries
on America's most intriguing rivers
and coastal waterways.

Alaska cruises aboard the Empress of the North tour the pristine Inside Passage, a legendary route traversed by Native Alaskans, Russian explorers and gold rush prospectors. The glaciers will take your breath away, as will the majestic grandeur of Alaska's endless forests, plummeting waterfalls and abundant wildlife.

In the Pacific Northwest, Columbia and Snake River cruises aboard Empress of the North, Columbia Queen or Queen of the West follow in the wake of early explorers. Highlights include Native American hunting grounds, Lewis and Clark-era forts, North America's deepest gorge and the oldest settlement west of the Rockies.

Along the historic Mississippi River, American Queen cruises departing from New Orleans and Memphis immerse guests in the gracious hospitality of the Old South. Nostalgic trips celebrate the Gateway to the American West on the Upper Mississippi, Mark Twain and the 29 locks and dams that are an integral part of this storied passage between St. Louis and St. Paul.

From Alaska to the Mississippi, rediscover America on Majestic America Line's boutique cruises.
