Athens (Piraeus) to Asia Cruise Reviews

The cruise had a fabulous itinerary and we chose it for that. We were not disappointed. The cruise was amazing and the ports were phenomenal. Everything was interesting and easily explored. Sometimes we had to travel a distance from port to the points of interest but that is often to be expected with a cruise. We could not have been more pleased with the choice of ports. We arranged for ...

Seabourn customers feel a strong sense of brand ownership and so are generally not amenable to change. Having cruised 4 times previously on Sojourn we boarded Encore with an open mind. The ship has a lot to live up to, Seabourn set the bar pretty high. First impressions are of timber, textured fabrics, leather and stone. I immediately thought of boat shows and premium British motorboat ...

Four of us flew Emirates to Athens, stayed 2 nights and boarded Azamara Quest to Mumbai. The accomodation in Athens at the Divani Caravel was very comfortable. Our visits to Greek Tavernas were memorable, the food & service was superb & the Raki finished the night in good spirits. We embarked on the Quest on 10th Nov. and the whole experience escalated from there. The Captain on the ship was ...

This was our first cruise on Azamara and the best on-board cruise experience ever. The cruise went from Athens to Hong Kong, 6 weeks. We have cruised more than 30 times, mostly on HAL and Princess, but nothing compared to the service and ambiance we experienced on board the Journey. From the Captain down to the room steward, everything was perfect. We expected that on a 6 week cruise that we would ...

Windstar knows how to treat their guests. From the transfer from the aiport to the transfer to our hotel, it was smooth sailing. The cabin was what we expected for an A category. It was well laid out, upscale and very comfortable. There was plenty of closet/storage space. The restaurant/food choices were excellent at all meals. We particularly enjoyed the varied menu each evening in ...

We have just returned home after a quite brilliant 25 night cruise on Azamara Quest. It has been, as the title suggests, a cruise of extremes. Extreme one: Normal cruises are action packed, a port a day, a head-long hurtling adventure which is over in a flash. This cruise was a long lazy repositioning cruise with so many sea days stretching before us and only a few, spasmodic interruptions when ...

Having read other reviews we booked the cruise on Azamara Quest from Athens to Singapore and some aspects of the cruise did not live up to our expectations, based on previous reviews. I will cover both the positive and negative points below, in order to provide a more balanced review, which I hope will be of assistance to those considering an Azamara cruise. EMBARKATION. If, like us, you arrived ...

Having sailed on the same ship during a much shorter trip in January, my wife and I were interested in finding out whether the same high standards would be maintained over the 24 days that passed between our embarkation in Athens to the time we disembarked in Singapore. In his review, Neil Down has already commented on many aspects of the cruise, and we would agree with almost all that he has ...

just finished reading a review by Neil, who was apparently on the same cruise, and took some of the same tours. I concur entirely with his comments on Dubai and KL, both ports new to us---no reason to return to either unless it's the only way to get somewhere else; in Dubai, the only thing of real interest, unless you like treeless compounds or are heavy into architecture and/or spending money ...

Going Cruising .. At 12.30 we arrived at the ship in Piraeus. We checked our bags in curbside and boarded straight away. There was a convenient hand luggage check-in, to avoid the need to drag bags everywhere, and lunch was being served in the buffet. So far so good !! Cabins were ready by 2pm and we headed off to 7116 .. complete with Sunset Veranda where our view for 24 days was the wake ...
