Hi – So far, it’s looking bleak for Viking River Cruises to begin service on the Mississippi. One major problem is the fact that the ship will have to be built in the USA and have American crew. This is a much larger expense than they originally planned.

Have been on the Viking Danube cruise and loved it, however being from Canada I would absolutely take the Mississippi cruise to explore so much to home with our American neighbours.

Thanks, Dennis. Oddly enough, from researching their itineraries thus far neither American Cruise Lines or American Queen Steamboat Company branch off and go west onto the Missouri from St. Louis. Maybe someday…

Interesting news! I hope they are successful.

Of course, the biggest tributary of the Mississippi is actually the Missouri. A side trip up the Missouri through the Missouri wine country as far as the charming old German town of Hermann would be a scenic little side trip.
