Advantages: Good food

Disadvantages: Not a lot of choice for entertainment

If you have never cruised before and you like the Thomson package holidays, you will love a Thomson cruise. Thomson cruises combine cruising with the entertainment and people you would get in a Thomson hotel.
I have now been on two Thomson cruises. One sailed out of Southampton and down to Bilbao and Lisbon, the other from Harwich to St Petersbourg, Estonia, Copenhagen etc. The ship both times was the Celebration.
Food on the Celebration was superb. You had the choice of restaurant dining and being waited on or a superb buffet where you could help yourself to what and how much you wanted. Having been on many cruises and different cruise lines, the Thomson buffet beats any of the other ships.
Entertainment was really good. Shows being equal to any on the big cruise lines. The only down side is the lack of entertainers which you do get on other cruise lines.
Rooms are of a good size and well kept. No tea or coffee making facilities in the room but you can order room service.
Good value for money cruise.

Summary: If you like packaged holidays then this is the cruise for you.
