For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I really en joyed our river cruises. About 90 on board, very casual, lovely food and lots of scenery and no canned entertainment. Visited lots of places. All very relaxing. A Norwegian cruise we did on a small ship was also great. Travelling down the fjords was wonderful. I am missing those holidays. You certainly don't feel stuck on a ship. Very very different from the large floating cities!
I've been on one, not quite that size, and it wasn't horrific. The decks were no more crowded than a popular beach, the dining spaces were more spacious than most restaurants and offered much more variety, and the public spaces generally were about as busy as our local high street, which is not very. Plus we got sunshine and visited interesting places, and had someone to make our beds.
I have no need of water slides and suchlike, and do prefer smaller ships that can get into places where the big ones can't. But it's up to individual ports whether to allow 10,000 people to arrive at once and flood the shops with their cash.
Pasta, you don't feel locked up at all on river cruises, and you spend a lot of time off the ship doing your own thing. We had a great cruise on a Russian river cruiser from Moscow to St Petersberg. We were the only British on board among South Africans, Germans, Austrians, Dutch and Japanese. It was great. Mind you, I wouldn't go to Russia now!! Not the right time. I wanted our next river cruise to be in Portugal, but it ain't going to happen ;0(
Countrylover, when you're up and about again, try a péniche cruise - they cover several French waterways

Converted or purpose-built barges with about 25 people on board (three of them crew); they moor at night so you don't miss anything. I think the one I went on covered about 100 miles in a week - it's the one on the link, though they've changed some of the itinerary and pushed the prices up a fair bet.
