Review for a Europe - Eastern Mediterranean Cruise on Azamara Journey

This was my second cruise with Azamara and, booking very early, I landed a suite as a solo and "what a difference a suite makes." First time was in a veranda cabin -- not bad, aside from the notorious shower, but very small. The suite is essentially twice the size, the bathroom much bigger and the veranda wonderful. The butler was a joy to know, attentive, friendly, just great. Also, dining in ...

The ship was very nice and the staff on board were fantastic. The pool was much too small for the number of people on the ship. The restaurants were all very good. Without the issue I am going to address I would have given a rating of 4.5 out of 5. My major complaint and what puts a very bad taste in my mouth for this cruise line is the customer service after the cruise. I paid $250.00 U.S. (I am ...

Second time travelling with Azamara (first since the takeover and what a difference between products.
The crappy service started right from the arrival at Istanbul Airport. We had booked airport transfers through Azamara only to figure out for ourselves after waiting for an hour and numerous calls to their non existent ‘emergency’ help desk that they had not booked them so we had to catch a $70 ...

This was our first cruise on Azamara and they completed exceeded our expectations. Coming out of COVID, we wanted to cruise on a smaller boat, and one of the recommendations from our travel agent was Azamara. Communications after booking the cruise were good. Port check-in and security clearance in Athens (Piraeus) was simple taking only about 30 min, and they did a very simple safety briefing ...

We chose this cruise as it was a smaller ship. We found it much more intimate, no queues and everybody was so friendly. The ship holds 700 passengers but there were only 400 on board.
The negatives are the swimming pool was small which if the ship had full capacity this could be a problem. Even though the interior of the ship had been re-furnished they had not done the staterooms. The ...

We chose this cruise over a year ago with the expectation of going to the Greek Isles and Israel. However, a week before the ship was due to leave on April 15th from Athens Greece, we were notified that our cruise has been redirected to Egypt with tours to Alexandria and Cairo to see the Pyramids due to the turmoil in Israel. I know the ships' captain was looking out for the welfare of the ...

We specifically booked this trip for the 4 days in Israel. It was my 4th booking for this (or similar) sailing; Azamara cancelled the first 2 and the 3rd was cancelled by covid. Sadly due to the current situation Azamara changed our intinerary.
1) they did a good job with the last minute plans for Egypt, I would have been extremely disappointed if this had turned into a Greek island ...

We booked this cruise because it offered 4 port days in Israel. The day before we were to get on the ship, while we were in transit to the ship, the itenerary was changed. Israel was taken off of the itenerary. This was a major disappointment. This is a old ship that has had upgrades, but not to the degree that one would expect for a so called luxury class cruise. The cabin was barely adequate ...

First time on Azamara.
Enjoying the smaller ship (700 passengers).
Nicely refurbished.
Cabin corridor however, seems under lit to me.
Free Launderette on Deck 7 (mid ship)
Washer, Dryer and Soap. Opened 8am to 9pm.
Staff have been remarkably polite and attentive.
Gold star.
Food in the 2 speciality (extra fee) restaurants (Prime C - Steakhouse) and (Aqualina - ...

BACKGROUND AND BOTTOM LINE
Avid cruiser, many times with Holland and Cunard.
First time on Azamara and was in a suite. It will be our last. Exceedingly poor value.
THE GOOD
The shore excursions. While they contract with others to do them, they still get some credit for it.
The size of the ship.
The itinerary.
THE BAD
Communication before and after the cruise was ...
