Here's a complete tour of American Cruise Lines' brand-new cruise ship, American Encore. This is the first in a new class of ships for ACL, and several sister ships will be constructed over the next few years. These 180 passenger cruise ships are designed specifically for sailing on the Columbia River and Snake River in the Pacific Northwest of the USA. You'll get a full tour of the River Lounge, Sky Lounge, and several smaller lounges. I'll show you the main restaurant as well as the Back Porch Cafe, the ship's casual lunch spot. There's a pilothouse tour where you'll see captain, Andrea Mickelson. You'll see the Chart Room, which is one of the best places on the ship for views of what's coming up ahead on the river. We'll even tour the laundry room, which has been hugely improved and expanded compared to the small laundry rooms on other ACL ships.
