TRIP ADVISOR

Posted by Perthguy on Thursday, 26. January 2012 at 11:28 Bali Time:

Has anybody here really adjusted holiday plans based on what they have read on Trip Advisor?
I know everybody has an opinion and I also get the impression, some reports on Trip Advisor are probably from whingers who maybe didn't get served at a bar on time or didn't like the manager at a hotel etc..
In a bit of a dilemma at the moment, as I was planning a very special cruise holiday next year, either on the Virgo out of Singapore or the Pride of America out of Hawaii.
After reading several reports I now really don't want to do any!
Shame really because we have never been on a cruise and thought this would be good, but don't want to ruin a special occasion.
