We’ve only done one cruise, Princess to Alaska (Vancouver to Whittier). We aren’t cruise people, but my kids loved it. We did it because it’s really the easiest way to see a decent amount of Alaska. We did research, and it seemed Princess was one of the top lines for Alaska. We stayed in Seward for 3 nights after the cruise so we could explore on our own as well.
Personally, I wouldn’t do a Mexico/Caribbean cruise since we don’t like crowds and prefer a different type of vacation. But lots of people like cruising.
Disney is super expensive and probably not worth it if you don’t have little kids. We looked into ship reviews and itinerary reviews on cruise critic. Randomly mom had been on the same ship we sailed on to Alaska when she did a Panama Canal cruise. She’s done two river cruises in Europe, the Panama Canal cruise, and an Alaska cruise.
