Sometimes in life we want to pamper ourselves, but it can be a struggle to find a cruise that gives you the luxury touches, and great service, and won't break the bank in the process. We just returned from a cruise that promised so much, at a great price. Watch along, to see if we found the Golden Ticket. This is Part One of a Two Part Series on Azamara Cruise Lines Part 2 is available here: https://youtu.be/jNPwsyzZFp8 We ask: in terms of value... is this the Best Luxury Cruise in the World? As well as showing you the cruise we booked, we will compare it with the market leaders. Including: Regent Seven Seas, Crystal, Silverseas, Seabourne, Oceania, as well as how it compares to premium line such as Celebrity, Holland America, Princess, and Cunard. This time it's our Azamara Cruise Review of their ship The Azamara Pursuit. There are 4 near identical ships, and include: The Azamara Quest, Azamara Journey and Azamara Onward.
