Hi All,

My wife and I are planning our first cruise and it's coming down to DCL or RCI.

I'm a huge Disney fanatic so DCL seems like kind of a no brainier but given the additional cost we want to make sure it's a good fit for us.

We are looking at either a 8-night RCI cruise or a 7-night DCL cruise to the Caribbean and I'm curious about on-board activities.

I know that Disney is going to be tops for entertainment (movies, shows, etc) but RCI has a lot of activities that lend themselves more to adults (rock climbing, surf simulator, wine tastings, zip lines, etc).

DCL's website doesn't go into as much deatail about on-board activities other than the fairly obvious ones (shows, movies, character meet and greets, kids clubs, pools, the Aqua-Duck, etc).

Given that there will be at least 3 days at sea how are the activities for younger couples who don't have kids.

For reference I'm 27 and my wife is 28, this trip will hopefully serve as kind of our last getaway before we begin to start a family.

We will either sail on the Fantasy or the RCI Oasis of the Seas so I'd love input for what things are available to adults that may not be widely advertised on the DCL website. I'd also love to know which of these kinds of activities have an extra charge (I'd expect things like wine tasting to cost extra but I'm new to all this so I don't know what is included and what is not).

Thanks!
