While we have been to Italy before, this itinerary provided stops at places we had not previously visited such as Capri, Amalfi, Syracuse, Messina and Montengro.
The crew could not have provided a better experience. From our room steward Gedy to the restaurant team that provided us with a plate of fresh sushi each evening in Windows before heading to the dining room. All special requests ...
We are "destination-focused" travelers, and while we have been to land trips in Europe several times, we chose this 10-nt Venice-Barcelona trip because it was going to give us an opportunity to revisit some of our favorite destinations -- Venice, Positano, Florence, the Riviera, and Barcelona. We love the size of Azamara ships -- lots of pretty places in which to relax without the overwhelming ...
We hadn't cruised in years and only on larger ships (which we didn't like), when a friend recommended Azamara. We chose this cruise for the itinerary and it didn't disappoint. Embarkation in Venice was incredibly smooth (took all of 10 minutes) and we were soon on board and enjoying lunch. We had an aft balcony cabin that was comfortable and had plenty of storage and the bathroom and shower, while ...
Thank you Mackdogmolly for the 5-Star review. We appreciate you took the time to write the review, and oh so glad you've found a new home at sea. We look forward to welcoming you back aboard....
The ship is very richly decorated and the staff are highly attentive particularly compared to larger ships. The Varandah stateroom was a pleasure to be in and excellently cleaned and tidiesd regularly. in terms of service I particularly recommend two Ukranians Katerina serving in the cabaret and and Irina in the cafe and a Hungarian, Lazar, in the cafe. The entertainment was superb and the in ...
We choose this ship as we liked the itinerary and we were keen to try a smaller ship. We traveled with 2 other couples and we all loved Azamara. We had traveled previously 3 times on celebrity cruise ships which we loved and twice on priinces cruise ships. Azamara Quest is our new favourite. The staff are so helpful and friendly. The food in all areas was some of the best food and meals we have ...
We chose this cruise based upon advertising and online recommendations. In a nutshell, the Azamara Quest over-promises and under-performs in many areas, all while charging premium dollars for the cruise. First, we have been on well over 100 cruises and my wife and I agree that the crew on the Quest was the best of any of our many voyages.They were consistently "GREAT". Also, the Captain ...
We booked the cruise based on reviews from family. Right off the hop we were warned we would be a bit young (me 42 wife turning 40) There were some looks at first, but I didn't feel out of place. Sorry this is more of an itinerary review than a ship review.
First impressions were good. The crew were very helpful, and I was surprised by the amount of senior officers present during the ...
We chose this cruise because of wanting to try something different; we have sailed exclusively on Royal Caribbean and had heard great things about Azamara,
For the itinerary we had been to Italy and loved it so much, but wanted to spend more time there. This cruise started in Venice and ended in Rome, with many ports in between that we had not visited. It did not disappoint!
The ship ...
Our first ever cruise and it surpassed our expectations. Room was amazing, food was delicious and varied, staff were great. Will definitely recommend and hope to sail with them again.
The Azamazing evening was wonderful, as was the Tenor. The shows by the Azamara singers and dancers were good.
Didn't use the Spa or the Gym (was generally otherwise busy), but they looked good.
Went on ...
Hi SandraLindsay, thank you for writing a cruise review of your first EVER cruise! I'm glad you enjoyed yourselves. We hope you will sail with us again!

We are recently back from a 10-day voyage from Venice to Rome on the lovely Azamara Quest. We are experienced cruisers with 50 plus voyages on ships of all sizes and shapes. Getting frustrated with the mega-ships, we were eager to go back to a smaller vessel that looks and feels like an ocean liner. We booked this trip approximately 18 months out and our first impressions of Azamara were not ...
Hi jkadventures, thank you for the cruise review! I'm so glad we will see you again in 2019.
I will pass along your comments re. the plastic water & bath bottles....
