@TommyOwen, from my experience reading many reviews over the years, you take each one with a grain of salt. I've been on 40 cruises in the last 8 years on 4 different cruise lines and although things will go wrong, I've never had a bad cruise. There are plenty of things to do depending on what you like to do. I will admit, I'm not into 90% of the activities, but I make the best use of my time on a cruise, instead of complaining about everything. My likes are the game shows, trivias, music in the lounges, comedians, port lectures, hot tubs, sun bathing, a little gambling, and everyone's favorite...eating, but I don't do waterslides, ice skating, flow riders, rock walls, knitting, or crafts If you leave the ship, complaining about nothing to do, just believe me, you did it to yourself, cause there are things to do all day, depending on your likes.

Appreciate your feedback. I’m not sure what ship you were on, but the Vista has several free activities, you must need a different set of needs than we do. Sorry this cruise didn’t meet your expectations.

Sorry you were disappointed with your cruise. Yes, all cruise lines have raised their prices. Thank you for your review.

Sorry to hear that, I am going on the vista next month and this makes me nervous now 😬. Was there any good shows or live music going on?
