Azamara Copenhagen Cruise Reviews

Azamara Journey Copenhagen to Barcelona September 2009 The ship The ship is a small R class ship carrying about 650 passengers, the majority of cabins have balconies, and there are some larger suites on deck 8. There are 6 bars/lounges and one main dining room and 2 alternative restaurants. The very large library is a lovely room with fireplace (non functioning!) and a grand piano. ...

We booked this cruise because of the small size of the ship and the itinerary and were so glad we did!! We fell in love with the small ship experience, no crowds and the familiarity with the crew. The ship is beautiful and classy. It is clean and in great shape. We had a balcony cabin. Although it was smaller than on other cruise lines,It was still adequate. The shower, however, was a bit small. ...

This was our first Azamara cruise; we picked it because of the itinerary, because we like smaller ships, and because of positive reviews we read on Cruise Critic. We will take another cruise on Azamara, given the right itinerary and timing. We made our own travel arrangements, spending three days at the Copenhagen Marriott prior to the cruise. When we checked in, the desk clerk suggested ...

Our wonderful cruise began with a short flight from Heathrow to Copenhagen, followed by a very easy and inexpensive 12 minute train journey to Copenhagen Central Station then an expensive taxi ride to Frihaven where the Journey was berthed. We arrived around 12noon and although the seemingly local staff were well intentioned, they didn't seem to know what they were doing. They got us to fill in ...

We have cruised with Celebrity and Azamara before. This was our second cruise vacation on the Journey. We recommended the cruise to six friends and we managed to convince them to join us on this 14 day western Med. cruise from Copenhagen to Barcelona. They all had a wonderful time (two of them are very experienced cruises, and the other four are "green-beans" to cruising. The Journey really ...

I consider myself an experienced cruiser, at the age of 44. This may have been my 12'th cruise or so (it becomes hard to keep count). It was my third cruise of 2009 and my first with Azamara. I have sailed with Celebrity many times including my first two of 2009 on the Infinity and the Solstice, so I knew what the minimum standard would be when I booked with Azamara. I was not disappointed. This ...

We decided to join Azamara Journey 2 days before departure from Copenhagen august 31, 2009. The only cabin not sold was an inside cabin - which we took. The cruise took us from Copenhagen to Barcelona and lasted 14 days. The boarding was the fastest we ever experienced, 5 minutes only. This was due to the fact that we printed our boarding pass online. Our cabin was as expected on the 8th ...

After just completing my 6th cruise, I finally feel qualified to review my most recent cruise, the 12 day Baltic cruise on the Azamara Journey, which sailed on July 12th 2009. I am home a week and have been able to reflect on the entire experience. Overall it was a great experience. I originally chose the Azamara cruise for its 3 days in St. Petersburg, a rarity among cruises and in my opinion an ...

We did a 12 night Baltic Cruise on the Azamara Journey and would like to provide a review. Our travel agent told us she would like us to try Azamara as Celebrity was trying to target the Oceania and Silverseas crowd. She was incorrect on both counts. Azamara is for the crowd who have done Celebrity, Princess, Norwegian, Holland Americian,NCL,and others in that genre. Having said that, if you have ...

Pre-cruise information: The information Azamara sent about the ship, the food, the activities and the shore excursions was extensive. As I said, I think the excursions are expensive, but probably in line with other higher end cruises. One suggestion: It would have been helpful had they sent passengers information about weather. If one goes to the Caribbean, it's likely that people will know what ...
