We travelled on Quest from Singapore to Athens after a Xmas Silverseas Spirit experience and the difference could not be more stark. Yes we did a review after our Xmas experience and now compare the amazing difference.
Quest crew were excellent all happy and friendly and seem to want to be there and make your trip pleasurable.
Things like the nightly shows were at a reasonable time 8.15 pm ...
We selected this cruise as we were familiar with the Azamara line, having sailed with them previously. We prefer ships with fewer than 1,000 passengers, port-intensive itineraries, and the carefree nature of all-inclusive voyages. This was our 42nd cruise in all, and our fourth with Azamara. Having visited most of Asia on prior land and cruise vacations, The "Land of the Rising Sun" had alluded ...
We like small ships and have been on Windstar frequently. Windstar passengers kept recommending Azamara to us, so we decided on this itinerary as a good tryout for another smaller-ship line. Overall, we thought the cruise was excellent and very comparable to Windstar, with some differences.
Some thoughts on specifics:
Vibe: Although bigger than Windstar (400 passengers this cruise out of a ...
Firstly can I say, I'm baffled by the previous two negative reviews given that we were on the same Mumbai to Cape Town Cruise December 28. I do agree that the on board service was delivered in the usual outstanding way and this included Guest Relations enquiries. We had little or no issue with the unlimited WiFi included in our booking deal. We travelled in a Verandah Plus Cabin on Deck 8 which ...
Thank you Aussie Travel Bird for the lovely 5-star review. We SO appreciate your loyalty to Azamara...23 cruises and counting, WOW! We can't wait to welcome you back aboard soon!

This was our first cruise with Azamara and we chose it because smaller ships can dock right in Saigon (two days) and Bangkok (three days) and because of Azamara's reputation as a destination immersion cruise line. We had never been to Asia before (well some consider Israel to be in Asia, but more "middle east"). We have cruised on my mass market lines including Celebrity, Royal Caribbean, and ...
Thank you HubofHockey for the 5-star review of your first Azamara cruise! We are glad you loved it, and that you'll be back with us in 2021.
p.s. I enjoy your regular posts on our AZ CC...
We chose this cruise because it was next on our bucket list. We really wanted to know Japan, not just from Tokyo, but from the aspect of the people in the smaller towns and ports. We have also had great experiences with the Intensive cruise on Azamara in the past.
We hold Azamara to a very high standard based on past sailings. This cruise met and exceeded our expectations. The high points are ...
This cruise visited 12 ports around Japan. There was only 1 Sea Day which makes it a very active cruise. We docked at all ports so there was no need to tender.
This was our first visit to Japan so we were able to add a pre cruise land tour of or own. With the back to back option we were able to go by ship from Japan to Alaska. They return to Japan in late July so that re positioning cruise ...
April 14, 2019 Azamara Quest 13-night cruise Circum-Japan This was my fourth trip to Japan, but my first cruise around the island. I was interested in seeing some of the ports along the western coastline, as well as Korea. This was my 20th cruise on Azamara. I like the crew, the ship and how well I am treated. I travelled as a solo and used 3 free loyalty nights that I had earned.
I traveled ...
This was our first Azamara cruise and we chose it because of the itinerary. We loved everything, the crew, the service and the food. As a bonus, we met some wonderful people. The included Amazing Evening was just that, a really nice amenity on this cruise line. The ship had been in dry dock for a week prior to our cruise which resulted in a few glitches in the beginning of the cruise. Azamara ...
This was our 3rd Azamara cruise. We are very happy with the cruise line, service is amazing from the maintenance workers to the captain. Everyone is friendly and go out of their way to help with whatever.The ship was going in for an overhaul as soon as we all got off. Having said that, the ship was in excellent condition, wish we could have seen the change. The evening shows were ...
