ive done 2 cruises with 2 different companies........
cruise 1 was aboard the Eclipse by Celebrity around the Med for 16 days and was scorching hot and a fabulous break, seeing many different countries
cruise 2 was aboard the Brittania by P&O another fabulous trip for 12 days around the canaries and portugal.........
both cruises i had a balcony cabin so i could sit in the sun outside and watch the sea go by or i could choose to go up onto the top decks and the sun lounger warfare that all foreign holidays have. All food and drinks on both cruises was free, with the chance to use different restaurants for an upcharge.
would i go again, damn right i would...for me its the ultimate in holiday comfort with superb room service, cabins, cleanliness and a chance to see numerous countries over a few days and chill in the sun at sea.......the were plenty of families on board, but few young children and both ships had adult only pools and sunbathing areas, if you wanted a child free experience.
The entertainment on both cruises were spectacular from their own onboard entertainment crew or by the many celebrity entertainers on the cruise circuit.
I do find the comments about sailing petri dishes quite funny, especially as back in the 80/90s people were afraid to go on holidays to spain/france/portugal/greece/italy etc etc due to the phrase Deli belly........now you cant stop people going to these places, even in a pandemic they still want to travel abroad and spread the virus.
