We pretty much cruise Holland America Line. They cater to the "more mature" group. We did a Transatlantic cruise to Amsterdam, Denmark, etc. It stopped at the Bahamas and Azores. There were lectures, game activities, music, etc., plenty to keep one as little or as much occupied as one wanted. Viking cruise lines are known for quality-however expensive. The rule of thumb is the smaller the cruise ship the higher the costs will be. For some who wish to try it-I would suggest either an East Coast Cruise that goes in to Canada, or even a California coast one when they are available.Thank for the advice, is there any specific cruise line you recommend like Viking? Cruising the Baltic would be interesting since it's not one of the more common Mediterranean or Caribbean cruises, maybe higher quality?
I think a lot of the anti-cruising sentiment has to do with poor news coverage making some lines look mismanaged and the recurring norovirus episodes are a real turn off.
