This was our second cruise with Azamara and if we win the lottery, we would just move in. We stayed in a spa suite which I will review in depth because I looked for information on the spa suite and could not find much. The British Isles were amazing. I loved every port of call. We were unable to go to Waterford due to high winds but I don't think many people minded as we were able to overnight in ...
Small cruise ship, very well organized, no extra cost for food and drink anytime of the day and night, wonderful, friendly crew and officers, great entertainment, wonderful food.
I'm done with large cruise ships, long lines, charging for every drink and wine with dinner.
There wasn't one time all week that I had an annoyance or was upset. They anticipated any possible issue and took care ...
We have traveled on larger ships - Holland America and Celebrity. Although we had a great time on those cruises- we will never go back to a larger ship after our amazing cruise on Azamara. The newly refurbished ship was stunning (although we never saw it before).
We stayed in the Club World Owners Suite, so the luxury experience was there like no other cruise we have taken before. The ...
This cruise was our 3 and 4th (back to back) on Azamara. We have taken 30-40 cruises and generally focus on Celebrity and have also done an occasional Oceania. Overall we rate Azamara nearly equal to Oceania. with the biggest difference being that Oceania does not charge for premium restaurants but does for drinks. We were quite happy with the food on Azamara and prefer to have access to wine ...
This is our 12th cruise. We selected this cruise for the itinerary and we had always wanted to do a smaller “luxury” cruise. When we signed on, the offer was for a two-level upgrade. Basically, we received a veranda room at an inside cabin price.
Leaving from the Wash. DC area, we added 3 days to the front of the trip in Copenhagen, and 3 days at the end of the trip in London.

Normally I write only detailled german reviews for german cruiseboards. But than I saw this review from StanleyVa and I thought I have to write down, what our experiences were on this small and intimate cruise ship. Because he gave the cruise only 3 stars and the cruise definitely deserves 5 stars.
We are experienced cruisers, with more than 35 cruise on different cruise line. We are used to all ...
My husband and I are both 53 and booked this cruise to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. He wanted to see Iceland and I wanted to be pampered!
We booked more than a year ahead of the cruise when I found a good deal (buy inside,upgrade to balcony). We bought a balcony guarantee and were assigned a cabin within days. I was allowed to change the room (within the same balcony category) through ...
The ship was kept immaculately clean and the onboard crew, staff, and entertainment were excellent. As usual, food started out great and the quality decreased over the course of the cruise. We were upgraded from sea view to veranda without our consent and it was not worth it. Having the veranda took space from the interior of the cabin and it was not really big enough for three.
My main complaint ...
Our cruise started in Copenhagen where the embarkation process was very slick as we were on-board within 10 minutes of arriving at the ship at about 1.30pm. After lunch we went to our cabin to find our luggage waiting for us.
The cruise called at 8 ports with the highlight being St Petersburg where we moored for 3 whole days. Being a relatively small ship, Journey was given a berth in the heart ...
Cabin #7078 (Standard Balcony) Loved the location! Yes, it is directly across from the laundry room, but we were never disturbed from door slamming, foot traffic, etc. The comfort & ease of being mid ship and having the convenience of Windows Cafe just 2 decks up, coffee bar, 2 decks down, was great.
Embarkation: We did traditional cruise air with ground transfers (not Choice Air), so we did ...
