We are currently booked on RC's Vision of the Seas for March; however, I am debating booking something else. The ship doesn't seem like it has that much to offer. We've previously sailed on the Carnival Inspiration, Carnival Breeze and Disney Wonder. We loved both Carnival cruises and were glad we experienced the Disney cruise but weren't wow'd, like we had expected.

We wanted to give Royal Caribbean a try but I am afraid we will be at a loss for things to do other than the evening shows and hanging by the pool. It's me, my husband and 11 yr old daughter sailing.

I've tried looking for the cruise compass to ease my mind but can't locate anything. Has anyone been on either of these two ships that can give me insight as to what you enjoyed and didn't enjoy to help me make up my mind?

We sailed on the Wonder last December and my daughter was 10 at the time. She didn't enjoy the regular kids program as much because there were a lot of younger kids. As an only child she is pretty mature and wanted to hang out with older kids because they did activities like a group scavenger hunt on the ship, wii dance competition, etc. We went down to the edge program and spoke with the counselors. They allowed her to participate as long as we signed a permission slip.

We are first time RC cruisers and just booked a trip on the Vision of the Seas for March. We've previously sailed on Carnival and the Disney Wonder. Everyone has always told us that we need to try Royal Caribbean. I'm curious to see what types of activities are offered on the Vision of the Seas.

Other than the nightly shows, what other activities are offered? Are there things like a comedy show, mixology classes, poolside parties, etc?
