Cruise Ships really that bad?

[Paul]

Hello all, I am getting married in April, So i figured a nice way to treat my bride was to go on a cruise, But i am hearing ALOT of bad reviews.. Carnival seems like its horrible, Disney will have to many kids... dont get me wrong i love kids but not when we want to go relax and most parents are idiots just let their kids run off and destroy everything.. Is there a good cruise company out there? And info is greatly valued!

Thanks

It all depends on how high you set your expectations. For example Carnival is ok for a cheap get away expect a younger crowd teens-20's & low 30's they are there to party the entire time 24/7. Also some young families w/ small kids. With Royal older crowd & families that are more settled w/ a little older kids. Norweg. has a nice mix as well.
Disney is so over rated in my opinion way to much $$ for the service/quality.your paying for the name
April will bring on alot of spring breakers..... keep in mind which ever cruise you choose the lines always skimp on the 3/4 nighters your best bet for a more relaxing time is Royal, Norweg, or Princess 7 days or more. Have fun and congrats!

Well, I don't know where you heard all that bad stuff, but cruising is one of the most enjoyable vacation you could ever take. You will find family's and kids on Carnival and Disney, that is true. If you want something more sophisticated, then go with Princess cruise lines. I highly recommend Princess and it would be perfect for the two of you.

i was on a carnival cruise and it was the most fun i had ever had, as long as your lucky to do it with great people and have fun with good weather. it was a trip i will never forget and i enjoyed very much, and idk how they get a bad review unless some really rich person has gone on other major cruise lines, but for us common people its great.
