As you walk onto the American Queen for the first time, you will climb a flight of red carpeted stairs and enter through the doorway onto deck 2.
The woman’s parlor and men’s card room flank the hallway to the Mark Twain Gallery. Everything is decorated as old style luxury but tucked in the corner is the computer/internet area and the coffee station. Beautiful artwork and models covered in glass surround the couches and sitting areas. There are games and puzzles and books for your entertainment. The pursers desk, shore excursion desk and gift shop are midship on this deck. We haven’t spent much time in those areas, the lighting is dim and we prefer the open deck.
