I’ve been watching a lot of cruising videos on YouTube recently and I have started to think that yes,I would like to go on a cruise. How about you?
 
Cruises are pretty wasteful and bad for the environment, aren't they? So I probably wouldn't because of that, and also I'd probably get bored on a ship for so long.
 
I’ve been on a couple. They’re alright but it’s always felt crowded and you always felt like a cunt of a tourist when you got off the boat at each stop.

Did you have to follow a woman with a plastic daffodil on a stick?
 
I've wanted to go on one ever since I watched The Love Boat as a kid :D

My friend was recently on one on a brand new ship as a competition prize and because some of the people onboard had a moan they all got given another free one :(
 
If I had the money, maybe I’d do a luxury cruise, but I don’t think I’d want to do a normal one. Also maybe not, because it sounds claustrophobic.
 
The only one I'd consider are the ones that go through the fjords. Otherwise, those that just hop between different cities/islands just seem like the worst way to experience those places.
 
I've been thinking about it recently as it seems like quite a good option for a solo holiday. Although knowing my luck I'd have someone boring latch onto me and not be able to escape without THROWING MYSELF OVERBOARD.

I'm definitely considering a Northern Lights cruise next winter. At least they are SHORT.
 
There is someone on YouTube who makes very good videos about cruising. I think her username is Emma Cruises or something like that.
 
I did do a very brief one from Cyprus to Egypt and back again. You got a full day in Egypt with an overnight on the ship either side. The ship was SHIT and the drains in the bathroom really stank. I'd definitely go LUXURY ONLY next time.
 
She was exaggerating but she just didn’t like the people on it. They were mostly Republicans. She also hated the food and the cousins she went with are fairly unpleasant
Ew. OK, LUXURY SOCIALIST CRUISES ONLY please.

The one my friend was on recently was the FULL FIVE STAR EXPERIENCE and it looked amazing. I'd probably only go on a gay one though, this one had a lot of old straight couples etc.

Oh no, I wouldn’t go on a gay one. Far too much loud music!
 
Only if Brittany Ferries to Spain counts :D

Looks like HELL.

My trip to Antarctica a few years back was technically a cruise and that was excellent, but I don’t think I’d do a more traditional cruising to various cities type one. I like to support the places that I’m visiting by going to restaurants and similar, rather than slinking back to the ship for meals.

Actually I think this is my answer. I would go on a cruise only if it was somewhere a normal vacation wouldn’t be feasible.

I hate looking like a tourist or obviously American on a trip
 
Nah. A metal container of other people's farts is doable for a couple of hours in a plane but a cruise? Fuck that. What if the food's awful? You're stuck for weeks. 5 hours in a coastal town every few days? No ta.
