"Of course ordering Room Service was an alternative, but choice of light bites was limited so we had to order more food than we really wanted and sit and wait for it.We considered that the food in the Windows Café was better quality and had far more variety than the Discoveries Restaurant, which was surprising...."Read More

1-10 of 16 Azamara Journey Cruise Reviews for Romantic to Europe - British Isles & Western from Lisbon
The staff, cuisine and ability for the ship to enter all ports owing to it's size, were truly excellent. The entertainment was a standout especially as regards the external talent. The Azamara troupe was full of xing but not always great individual singing talent. That said...as a troupe they were just fine and the Cruise Directors excellent. Yes the ship is in need of some TLC as it has clearly ...
This was our first time on Azamara. Friends of ours who went with us on this cruise, had sailed with them before and they spoke very highly of the line. Our itinerary was from Lisbon to Barcelona and was 9 nights in length. We tacked on a couple of extra days on each end of the trip and made it a full two weeks. It was such a different experience from the mega ships, several of which we have ...
This is our feedback on the cruise we booked onboard following our 2022 France intensive cruise. This time it's Spain intensive (Lisbon to Barcelona). Since we only sail Azamara it's an Azamara 2022 V Azamara 2023 comparison.
Once again, we sailed on the Journey and, as previously, the ship sailed and arrived exactly as scheduled in each port and in every case appeared to have the best berth ...
We got a late deal at a good price - booked an Inside Guarantee. We were pleased to have a complimentary cabin upgrade. We enjoyed the cruise and benefited from fine weather throughout. We were pleasantly surprised by the outstanding condition of the ship despite having no major refit for 7 years.
Embarkation and disembarkation was smooth. We appreciated being able to upload the key personal ...
Pre-Cruise - 3 destinations changed with no reduction in price. Complained to Azamara before we set off and were only given $300 onboard credit as compensation.
Check-In - Some sort of IT failure meant we couldn’t check in for 3 hrs. When IT system came back, even though we’d checked in online pre-cruise, the process of checking paperwork and taking photos etc. took a long time. No drinks, even ...
Another repeat cruise experience- excellent in 'almost' every way. Capt Johannes Thysse must be the most visible and approachable Capt afloat, as are his main officers. He is a consummate maritime expert and really enjoys his vocation. Entertainment was less than spectacular due to a change in dancers, which were absent. Nonetheless Eric de Gray is a true star and directing the musicians and ...
After taking the Italian peninsula cruise last year on the Azamara Quest,( from Rome to Venice) we were looking forward to another wonderful vacation. Unfortunately we were very disappointed. The ports of call along the Spanish coast were not interesting and the ports themselves were more commercial than pleasurable with working cranes, ferry boats and warehouses in full view of the ship. The ...
Second Azamara cruise, but many others on the ship were 15+ with Azamara. Very loyal following of the line and certain personalities on each ship. 50+ passengers were on the 102 day world cruise. Not a one I talked with had anything negative to say. The Azamara line uses 2 of the R ships. (A third, the Pursuit, is coming on line in August 2018 and there were hints that a fourth may be added ...
I just took my first cruise on the Azamara Journey and was highly impressed with the ship, crew, food, and friendliness of the passengers. I had received an extremely good deal on an obstructed ocean view cabin and luckily was able to select cabin 6036, which is between lifeboats and thus not very obstructed. I was pleasantly surprised how well laid out this cabin was and it was totally acceptible ...
Our previous experiences on Azamara cruises, coupled with Perry Golf's arrangements for golf at several fine Spanish golf courses, made it easy for us to commit to the 9 night Portugal, Spain, & France voyage.
We spent 3 days in Lisbon on our own prior to the cruise. The Lisboa Prata Boutique Hotel was comfortable and well-situated for sightseeing--a 5 minute walk to Comercio Square and only ...
Thank you FlatWorld for the cruise review! We too think our 30,000 ton ships are the perfect size :)
We look forward to welcoming you back aboard soon....
