American Splendor

American Splendor, formerly America, will receive a total redesign, allowing our guests to experience the nostalgia of classic paddlewheeler travel, while enjoying perfect comfort and the most modern amenities.

American Splendor will be completely made-over with new color palettes, luxurious textiles and linens, new furniture and carpets, and artwork and flourishes. From the staterooms and suites to the lounges and dining rooms, the new décor will pay homage to the legendary Mississippi River.
   
On board, guests can relax in a casual ambiance while admiring panoramic views of the passing scenery. With only 185 guests, fellow travelers will quickly become new friends.
