Brian,

Thank you to you and your staff for an amazing private cruise on the American Lady. The weather was perfect. The food was amazing and your staff and captain did an outstanding job. This was the perfect environment for me to show appreciation to my staff and VIP customers. If you ever need a referral from someone considering a private cruise then please give them my name and number.

Thanks again for an enjoyable evening. I am sure it’s something we will do again.

Yesterday my husband and I took your brunch cruise-what a beautiful day, and it was a pleasure to try your American Lady Cruise boat.

Besides the beautiful weather and wonderful boat was the pleasantry and kindness of your personnel...from the welcome when entering the boat to leaving the boat.  Then to my amazement, as I was in the parking lot walking to my car, one of your wonderful personnel stopped me to return my jacket I had accidentally left on the boat.  Her graciousness and that extra measure of kindness will always be remembered, and I will surely speak well of you all!  Thank your staff for making a beautiful day even extra special!

Thank you!

Thank you for the great cruise!  It was a nice fundraiser that we hope to continue in the future.  I also want to thank the staff for the wonderful job that they did with the children on board.  They truly enjoyed the tour and sitting up with the Captain.  I look forward to future cruises.

Our first trip to Dubuque, Iowa provided a day that we'll always remember.  There's no question that the best way to see this charming town is aboard the American Lady.  The cruise was very pleasant, from the kind and helpful staff to the beautiful scenery along the Mississippi River.  We felt free to roam around the entire boat and even visit the Captain!  We really feel that a visit to Dubuque would not be complete without a ride down the Mississippi aboard the American Lady.  We look forward to returning!

Thank you so much for an unforgettable evening.  The food was great, the service A+.  I could have just sat on the yacht forever-it was overwhelming!

One Saturday morning, my boyfriend and I went on a 4 hour canoe trip on the Upper Iowa River.  Afterwards, we headed for Dubuque, arriving in time to board the American Lady for the Happy Hour Cruise.  It was an hour and a half of cruising the Mississippi while consuming all the pizza and beer we wanted.  What fun!  The ship is beautiful and luxurious!  I really can't imagine a more enjoyable way to take in the beauty of the Mississippi!  It's probably a good thing that the other passengers didn't know that Captain Mike, who encourages patrons to come visit him in the wheelhouse, actually let me steer the yacht for a while and blow the horn!
