We are veterans of Azamara and the R ships having sailed on them for 25 years. The cruise did not disappoint. The itinerary was what we wanted with a lot of late nights and overnights in ports and days at sea on the back end. We were part of the World Cruise on the Onward. The usual things that we love about Azamara were terrific 1. surperior service for the crew from our butler to the Captain. ...

We were on several previous Azamara cruises, and this was our first time on the Onward. However, we think we were on this ship before, when it was part of Princess. We thought that an Azamara cruise was an ideal way to see both New Zealand and Australia. What we didn't realize was that we were sailing on a segment of a "world cruise" and about a third of the passengers were on the much ...

6-10 Cruises • Age 30s

We were very excited to board the Celebrity Edge for our post-wedding cruise. We had recently been on one of the millennium-class ships, but the new edge class looked so much more impressive and appealed more to our sense of style. In anticipation we had watched all kinds of videos, and read all kinds of reviews on what to expect. In person it is just as stunning as we had expected, and the ...

We are a couple who joined two other couples chose this cruise because it started and ended in Auckland NZ. We have done around 20 cruises including three half world cruises over 30 years from Ponant to Paul Gaugin through Cunard, Sun Line, Carnival, P & O (UK), Princess and Celebrity. At 3000 passengers it was the largest ship we had been on (our other cruises were all on 2000 or less ...

Review for a Australia & New Zealand Cruise on Viking Orion

10+ Cruises • Age 60s

This was my second Viking Ocean cruise so obviously I liked my first one. For reference, I would classify Viking as perhaps a rung below lines like Silversea and Regent, but above Oceania or Celebrity. This was my first visit to this part of the world, and generally it was an excellent cruise with a few hiccups here and there. I probably preferred my first Viking cruise to this one for a few ...

Do not take the cruise to NZ starting and ending in Auckland. We just got back (the 2025 date is for next year obviously). We went 2024 February. Got to the airport and Princess has organized a taxi. This was extremely awkward as the guy told us how poor he was a lot and we felt we needed to give him a tip ( this was our fault). Embarkation started around 11am and was efficient. The room ...

I would never recommend this cruise ship to anyone. We joined this cruise to celebrate our special wedding anniversary - this is our 7th cruise - but unfortunately its all about money and not passengers. Our towels in cabin were not changed for 6 days - apparently the laundry couldnt cope with daily changes. The cafes food was the same for 14 days, tables not cleared when passengers left - ...

Silverseas disappointing experience

Review for a Australia & New Zealand Cruise on Silver Whisper

10+ Cruises • Age 70s

Thought Silversea's was a high end cruise line. Veteran cruiser with many trips on Oceania, Princes,and many other lines. First: disappointing customer service. One of the reasons we selected this cruise was the itinarary, Auckland to Sydney with a stop at Philip Island to see penguins. Somewhere between booking and sailing they changed the itinarary and eliminated Pillip Island. No notice, ...
