Additional details
We have sailed Azamara a number of times and really enjoy the on-board experience. This itinerary attracted us because of the variation in cultures and climate.
The embarkation was very smooth and we were quickly processed. .
Because of an upgrade, we were staying in a Club Continent Suite as opposed to our usual Veranda 2. We really enjoyed the extra space, but did not utilize all the perks associated with the Suite.
Cabin Review
Club Continent Suite
We loved the layout and size of this suite. There was lots of drawer and closet room for our clothes.
The only small drawback is that the shower is incorporated with a bathtub.
Port Reviews
Cadiz
The usual walking tour with a tendency to provide too much information.
Lisbon
Lots of fascinating neighborhoods
Saint-Malo
Interesting walls to walk and a compact downtown.
Rouen
Azamara provided a shuttle to the impressive downtown area. The Cathedral, shopping area, and the tributes to Joan of Arc all make it worthwhile. There was also a gathering of "Tall Ships" on the Seine.
Honfleur
Another very picturesque port town on this itinerary. Smaller and rather more touristy than the others.
Cherbourg
A ship's tour to Bayeux was excellent. Interesting countryside, beautiful Cathedral, and the highlight is the Bayeux Tapestry.
Porto (Leixoes)
A picturesque location on the Douro River.
