American Cruise Lines has announced it will offer a special antiques cruise.

On May 2, guests aboard the brand-new American Serenade will have a unique opportunity to attend a taping of ANTIQUES ROADSHOW when the riverboat stops in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

Guests will receive VIP access to the ANTIQUES ROADSHOW event at the LSU Rural Life Museum and they can bring up to 2 items that can be appraised during the production event.

The eight-day cruise will depart from Memphis, Tennessee on April 27 and finish up in New Orleans.

"American Cruise Lines' guests have a common bond with ANTIQUES ROADSHOW's millions of weekly viewers in their shared passion for American culture, and in uncovering the fascinating histories which often exist right in our own backyards," said Charles B. Robertson, President & CEO of American Cruise Lines. "We are so pleased to offer this special opportunity to our guests."

We also think it's pretty cool that a cruise centered around "old things" in antiques will be held on the second-ever sailing for the riverboat American Serenade. Old meets news out on the Mississippi River this summer. Will you or your clients be sailing on it?

It's truly one of a kind, as this special antiques sailing also offers complimentary domestic airfare and a complimentary pre-cruise hotel stay in Memphis.

American Cruise Lines has five new riverboats operating more than 11 itineraries on the Mississippi River from February through December 2023.
