I have been on a few and we have been very happy. They treat you very well anticipating you will repeat your spending. Special events, dinners, etc. I have never been pressured unless we showed an interest in a piece and talked to them about the piece. Its fun meeting some artists as well. I wouldn’t turn down a free trip. If you can’t afford to purchase don’t but enjoy your trip. One negative, don’t choose a cruise where they have chartered the whole boat. In 2021 we choose a river cruise on the American Queen and was so excited to finally go on a river cruise. The major problem was Park West had total control of the boat because it was chartered. Only half of a crew to serve everyone. The bars were seldom open, couldn’t get food when desired, no activities and crew was overworked. Big ships, kudos to Park West…We enjoy it very much.
