I went on the QM2 crossing last December. It was the best cruise I have ever been on (technically it's a crossing - not a cruise).
The demographics are older. Having said that, most passengers are well traveled and very engaging. The ship has a very active social scene which is one of the elements I enjoyed the most.
I joined a CC roll call and had instant friends. I'd recommend joining one for your voyage.
The QM2 is the greatest (and only) ocean liner in the world. I would highly recommend trying it out. I've never been on the Queen Victoria or Queen Elizabeth. These would be more comparable to cruise ships as they share the same hull with Carnival's Spirit class ship as well as Holland America.
Finally, Cunard and Princess are both Carnival companies. They serve different markets but are not really completing with each other.

I used a company called Smartcruisetours.com. They did an excellent job. A bus picks up outside the port and drops off near the Vatican. They also have tour packages. The price was very reasonable. I would recommend them.

It stays on ship time.

You can rent a car or a scooter. Both are available when you get off the ship. I've rented scootets before for about $40 per day.

There's usually less of a wait if you board a bit later, such as after 1:30 PM.
