South America Azamara Quest South America Cruise Reviews

This was our first sailing on Azamara and I'm a travel agent so we were very excited to see why Azamara has such a loyal following. We spent 2 days in Buenos Aires first at the Icaro Suites then embarked on our voyage. The checkin process was a breeze and there were lots of friendly people greeting you as you came onboard. The first thing I noticed was how the crew and passnegers interacted. I ...

This was our second cruise on Azamara Quest. We had booked the cruise well over 12 months in advance through an on line agency (which had handled our first Azamara cruise) We thought our first cruise on the Quest was the best we had ever had...the size of the ship, the service from cabin attendant to captain, the great food. This cruise almost equaled it...but the operative word is "almost." ...

My husband and I have been on approximately 20 cruises on lines ranging from Carnival to Crystal. We prefer a larger ship but my husband liked this itinerary because of the overnight docking in several ports. We decided to think of it as a "hotel" to see the area and attend Carnivale in Rio. Azamara is A "semi-luxury" line with a crew to passenger ratio of 2:1. We booked a suite, the class ...

Contemplating a trip to the Antarctic poses manifold choices. Each of six major cruise lines sailing to the South Atlantic offers distinctly different options as to duration, destinations, comfort, formality, and shore excursions. In many ways, it is truly a dice toss, as itineraries are notoriously subject to change due to variant weather conditions. We got lucky. We chose Azamara's ...

We booked this cruise last May when we were on the Middle East cruise. We were really happy to see the ship was still decorated for the Christmas holidays. Beautifully decorated. We also were very impressed with the new carpets, paint colors and paintings. It made for a calm relaxing feel while walking around the ship on sea days. This cruise seemed to be a cruise (" Ask and you shall receive"). ...

Just returned from the January 5th Quest voyage Rio to Buenos Aires. The ship was great and almost everything was up to our expectations. Stayed in a Club Continent Suite in Cabin 8063. The extra space was worth it. Butler and housekeeping staff met our every need.The new furniture on the balcony was comfortable but a little crowded with 3 chairs and the table. Our butler Rovin set the table ...

We were on the Azamara Quest Antarctic cruise 13th January - 1 February 2013. It was a “bucket list” cruise and was our 4th cruise on Azamara and our 3rd on Quest. Our flight from Heathrow to Buenos Aires was uneventful. But then came the worst part, after collecting our luggage the queue for clearing customs was a 2 hour long snaking queue to put luggage through a scanner. We had Azamara ...

We were so looking forward to this cruise. A once in a lifetime trip to Antarctica. We originally booked to do the holiday with Celebrity cruises but when we saw Azamara was doing the same cruise on the same day but one we switched ships! We always book suites and booked suite 8050 - midships. We had high expectations of the ship and accommodation as throughout 2012 it was widely known that ...

This is a review of the Azamara Quest 9 day Christmas cruise from Rio de Janeiro to Buenos Aires. A little background -- This was our first Azamara Club Cruise and we booked an inside category 12 cabin. We have been on 10+ cruises across various larger ships/companies all in the Caribbean. We have previously cruised with Celebrity. We are from the US and in our 40's. This Quest sailing ...

Sailed a for the Christmas cruise from Rio to Buenos Aires and for the first time on Azamara. This was our first "upscale" cruise (or luxe-light as I've heard it called). We had a great time. Keep in mind this is before this line went "all-inclusive." PRE-CRUISE: We checked into the Sheraton in the extreme western part of Leblon (Leblon is the very west part of Rio beach area) after an ...
