SHIP OVERVIEW

The launch of Azamara Pursuit® opened the seas to maiden ports, new itineraries, and the opportunity to provide the guests with even more unforgettable, unique, and immersive experiences than ever before. Like the sister ships, Azamara Pursuit offers some of the most extraordinary adventures on Earth, to places you’ve always dreamed of. Or, perhaps, only just heard about. New-to-Azamara destinations include Antofagasta (Chile), Lima (Peru), and the Beagle Channel—and those are just some of the South American maiden destinations.

PROS

Fabulous Itinerary

CONS

We had 1 day of rain. Boo Hoo!

RECOMMENDED

Yes

Alice and I have many days on cruise ships. This cruise experience was the best. The crew treated all passengers as family and went out of their way to make us feel special. They quickly learned our preferences and anticipated our needs. The food, entertainment, activities, and accommodations were excellent. Captain Antonio kept us informed daily on details of our route and ports. He was also available at lectures and entertainment. We happily give Azamara high marks.

My cruise on Azamara more than made up for any past web site issues the company had. The staff was outstanding. Guest Services were extremely accommodating. The excursion team made sure I was able to find something which interested me. I have no complaints.

PROS

Crew, Common Area, Comfortable Beds

CONS

Wifi, Lack of local cuisine

RECOMMENDED

No

<div>The Azamara Pursuit is a great ship for visiting more unique destinations in Europe and the ease of travel with fewer people makes each day run very smoothly. The ship itself is really well cared for. Cabins look new, linens are plush and even the small bathrooms have had a recent makeover. The service by the crew was consistently positive and eager to please. The lounges and common areas are well appointed and there was plenty of space to spread out - even on our sailing which was quite full. Most of us wished that they offered more local cuisine and, especially, local wines (we were on a Croatian intensive and no Croatian wines offered which was a pity). The biggest downside: wifi. Slower than molasses and, with so many people choosing to mix work and travel, this can be a concern. Azamara has stated that they are planning to upgrade their ships in there next few months.&nbsp;</div>

Wonderful way to spend our 50th Wedding Anniversary. We renewed our vows, Captain Clark was so very friendly. He and the crew made out day so very special. White Night was amazing sailing out of Santorini at 10 pm, with the moon, stars, and great music. Can't wait to go again.

CONS

Cabins are on the small size especially the bathroom/shower. Coffee shop needs to larger or offered in more than one location.

RECOMMENDED

<div>The ship decor is beautiful; The layout of the ship works well. They do not have a casino on board which was no problem. The area that use to be the casino is now a nice piano lounge that is shared with the future cruise consultant, the shore excursions office, and the photo area. They did a very good job with this and it worked very well. The coffee bar was very nice but a bit too congested. If you did not sit at a table they frowned at you ordering directly from the barista which many folks just wanted to take their coffee to go. We tried to get into the specialty steak house but it was fully booked for the full cruise. We didn&#39;t mind because the staff and food was so good in the main dining room even providing some wonderful steaks. We did not go on any of the cruise lines excursions, we had made arrangements for some private car tours which suited us better for the port of call we went to. The white night was a lot of fun and the ship went all out to make this a fantastic event on board. I hope they continue to do this on future sailings. All in all I would definitely cruise on Azamara again!</div>
