Somehow we ended up doing a Tui cruises at probably age 50ish and enjoyed it a lot so went on a few more. Only European ones, all Tui except one, on an American boar (Celebration IIRC) which was more formal and less enjoyable.
Entertainment and food was excellent, and the drinks package worked as expected. We never did any of the excursions as they were way too pricey for what they were - instead we researched beforehand and got ourselves to Pompeii, Rome etc etc. We even took the girls on one over Christmas one year and it was fantastic. And we hardly ever socialised with anyone else or joined in many of the activities on any cruise, though the opportunity is obviously there if you want to.
However I feel I've done enough now and I prefer my long vacations in Portugal.
