Azamara Pursuit - 10 Night Greece Intensive Voyage
August
Pros: The service was great. We had a cabin that provided a butler (Osvy) and he was great. The ship was just the right size. The food was fantastic - a feast for each meal. Everything was well run. It was really just a great trip.
Cons: The ship is showing its age, but Azamara does a good job with keeping up with maintenance. The spa was a little disappointing. The facilites were a little run down - soap dispenser not working in the shower, lockers hard to open, floor could have been cleaner.
Recommended: Yes
Overall, a fantastic trip. I would not hesitate traveling on with Azamara or on this ship again.

Good times
March
Pros: Excellent service from staff. Great buffet food
Cons: Dinner at Discovery restaurant took a long time.
Recommended: Yes
Everything was smooth. Service was great. Excursions were well planned and guides were above average. Hilga, my room attendant was really good. Cheerful, helpful and kind. I'm an early to bed person so I can't speak to the evening entertainment.

New Zealand and Australia
February
Pros: Great food and service on the ship
Cons: Too many days at sea
Recommended: No
As always Azamara provided excellent food and service. For this trip I felt there were too many days at sea. Also I found several of my excursions to be disappointing-the guides talked too much, and in the case of the bus tours we were on the bus too long.

It is the best!
January
Pros: Small ship so u get to know people, great food, excellent crew, wonderful entertainment, great speakers, art lessons, and time to workout or meet people to play bridge or mahjong.
Cons: Cabins are a bit small but very comfortable
Recommended: Yes
I would take all of my future cruises on azamara! I felt like I was so well taken care of. Loved “White Night” towards the end of the cruise. Everyone wears white and there is barbecue and dancing on deck. Crew parades around holding the flag of the county they are from. Crew came from 40 countries!

Enjoyable cruise
September
Pros: Smaller ship. Great staff. Good entertainment
Cons: No complaints
Recommended: Yes
Attendant Ukiss and Butler Osvy were very friendly and did an exceptional job. There were many other staff which I would like to commend but sadly I can not remember most of their names other than Fernando in guest relations.

Azamara Pursuit Sailing Experience
August
Pros: Great itineraries, lots of time in port
Cons: Food, Wifi Connectivity, Inconsistent Staff
Recommended: No
The Azamara Pursuit experience is great for those who are transitioning into small ship sailing. The ship is easy to navigate and guests will enjoy the more intimate connection. I do think there are opportunities for improvement with the food, wifi connection, and overall consistency of service from the staff. The itineraries are spectacular and I do love that Azamara is often the last ship in port (they have later departure times). The White Night and Azamazing evening are nice additions.
