Visit Mount Vernon, George Washington’s iconic 18th-century home, before exploring our nation’s capital, the Smithsonian exhibitions, and the area's many historic monuments. On board and on shore, Revolutionary War experts, authors, and re-enactors join us to bring our nation’s history to life.

The fourth in our series of Coastal Cats, American Legend, continues to provide guests with the perfect blend of adventure and comfort.

Like her sister ships, American Legend can travel on almost any river or waterway in the U.S., with rare access into small ports. The interior features modern décor and spacious staterooms, many with private balconies, as well as an elegant restaurant, multiple lounges, a fitness center, and an outdoor cafe.

After a day of exploration, relax on your private balcony and savor the view. Or sit at one of the observation areas at the bow and admire the splendid vistas with fellow travelers. If your feeling adventurous, take advantage of the tender at the stern of the ship, which provides the opportunity for local exploration.
