Journey........A Great ship and crew

The ship and crew are outstanding in every way. Food was excellent but the specialty restaurants don't change their menu and on an 18 night cruise it can get boring. They could do more in the way of providing ...

Overall very disappointing experience and highly overrated.

Primarily for itinerary (Sydney to Auckland). The itinerary was great -- the ship not so much. I have been on about 35 to 40 cruises and maybe my expectations were too high. Some of the biggest disappointments ...

Cruise Review for Azamara Quest Voyage from Sydney to Bali

Our overall cruise experience was excellent. The Azamara ships, although older and sometimes a little tattered are like a great old cashmere sweater, comfortable and great feeling. The effort of the crew from the ...

Good First Time Experience

We were new to the Azamara brand of cruise ships. We wanted to tour Australia and New Zealand and cruising seems to be a good choice considering some mobility issues my mother had. She is also celiac and had dietary ...
