AQ My Voyages has been perfect for river cruises in the US. The staff is very friendly and accommodating, food and entertainment our age level and they have a hop on hop off bus in every port that takes you from the boat in a continuous circuit to see the sights in the area of each port included in the trip price. It is hard to get lost (as long as you are together). We are from New Orleans and took one on the Mississippi to areas we had already been but the American Queen steamboat was really lovely and a calm, relaxing trip. Look for regular specials they run.
