The Mississippi River is one of the world’s most famous waterways – and it’s not very hard to see why. Water flows for approximately 2,350 miles, touching 10 states. To put it into perspective: The Mighty Mississippi cuts through 20 percent of the continental United States. It’s the longest river system in North America – and the fourth-longest in the world! 

Formed at the conclusion of the most recent Ice Age – approximately 10,000 years ago – the Mississippi was not always the elder it is today. As the atmosphere became warmer and glacier deposits melted, water cut channels through sediment deposits and flowed underground, thus creating a mighty river. 

A raindrop deposited at the headwaters of the Mississippi River would take almost 82 days to meet the Gulf of Mexico at the river’s average speed of 1.2 miles per hour. That is, of course, without stops for sightseeing. 

American Queen Steamboat Company invites you to meet Ol’ Man River firsthand. Spend time enjoying the magnificence of the river, embrace the Mississippi mud and embark on the journey of a lifetime with American Queen Steamboat Company.

Regionally inspired food is a way of life on the river. Wild salmon, so fresh it might have been swimming this morning, grilled to perfection. Moonshine bread pudding that evokes echoes of the Tennessee hills. A succulent dumpling that reminds you why Washington apples are the world’s favorite temptation.
