I choose this cruise since it was a small ship (only 700 passengers), late in summer season departure of sept 12 and ports of call - italy & athens . I was surpised at how crowded italy was despite being late in tourist season and how warm it was. ports at florence and rome were so far away. it made for a very long day to get there, tour and return to ship.
food on ship was good , shows were ...
We have done 17 cruises in the past 12 years & this was our favourite by far. To set the scene, we are a couple mid 30s, no children. Looking for a destination intensive itinerary with like minded travelers & longer stays in ports. No wheelchairs, or walkers - just great people enjoying a wonderful European Summer.
For starters, and slightly with smugness I loved the fact that the Quest ported ...
Thank you craigbro159 for the glowing 5-star review. We appreciate you took the time to write a review, and we are thrilled you LOVED your first Azamara cruise!
We look forward to welcoming...
We thoroughly enjoyed our 8 day cruise from Barcelona to Rome on the Quest. This was our 1st cruise on Azamara, and we will definitely consider Azamara again for a future trip. We met several fellow passengers who had been on over 10 Azamara cruises, so this is a good testament.
The size of the ship (~700 passengers) and the itinerary were the main reason for choosing this trip along with a ...
Hi CristinaDavis, thank you for the 5-star cruise review. We very much appreciate that you took the time to write it. And of course we love that you loved your Azamara cruise. ...
First off I should say I do love Azamara. The combo of relaxed and yet slightly luxurious vibe is a winner for me.
But after a couple of years away, previous experiences with Azamara seemed much more luxurious than they do now.
On embarking, it immediately felt different as there were a number of noisy children dominating the pool. Azamara is kind of billed as an adult ship, so this was ...
This was our first Cruise with Azamara. Unfortunately our expectations were not met.
We knew that the “Quest” was an older ship but did expect that the service, food etc. would compensate for that.
The cabin - as for the ship itself - really needs a refurbishment. Especially the bathrooms, carpets etc. The cabin size is on the small side, which we knew though. The bathroom is very small and ...
First, let me describe who we are and what we were looking for in a cruise. We are two Americans in our early 40s, looking for a romantic/tropical vacation (without kiddos, of course). We enjoy food and wine, relaxing on the beach and a little bit of sight seeing. The 7-day Western Mediterranean cruise aboard the Azamara Quest was perfect for our needs.
The ship’s small size allowed us to ...
Thank you for the review. We always appreciate hearing from our younger cruisers.
I'm so glad you enjoyed your Mediterranean cruise with us. We'll look forward to welcoming you back soon!...
We have just finished the cruise on the Azamara Quest which left Barcelona on 30 June 2018 and arrived Civitavecchia on 7 July 2018. It was a great cruise. The ports visited were interesting and there was enough to do for the time spent at each port. The whole of the staff were fantastic in all areas of the boat. We stayed in a balcony suite and give a very big thankyou to our butler (Eyup) and ...
We chose this cruise ship on the advice of our travel agent. It was amazing! We chose to spend one day in port on the ship, we planned a couple of excursions on our own through Viator, a couple of transfers through Azamara and one on our own. Everything went perfectly! The one "excursion" that we planned on our own was the Great Italy Tour of the Bocelli Winery and restaurant. Here is the ...
Good itinerary in Mediterranean with great price-point to try Azamara for first time.
We have cruised many other lines, and wanted to try something different: Azamara includes tips and standard alcoholic drinks, which took one further element of "surprise" out of the bottom line, since we don't do spa treatments or shop on board. We paid what we paid, and that was it, except for airfare. ...
This cruise was part of a B2B with the next itinerary.
Embarkation was quick and simple in Barcelona, followed by a meal at the buffet and staterooms were available by 1:30 pm.
We were in a V3 verandah towards the stern, an excellent location for access to the rear elevators. The only complaint we had was that there was an occasional banging noise from a service door nearbye.
Quest is ...
Hi Nordski, thank you for the lovely cruise review of your B2B (back-to-back) cruises in the Mediterranean. And thank you for your preference for Azamara. We all very much appreciate it. ...
