@@malue_music oh really?! We went 5th December 2024, the weather was awful at first but cleared up well. We did a track down by the car park not the main one that leads into the PR1 trail (although this looked open from the view point)

@@KimberlyMcGarry-k6k thank you ☺️ how exciting!! Have a lovely time, wish I was back on 😍

@@visitwithhelen7642 thank you 🤍

@@visitwithus thank you🫶 yes it was the most amazing day highly recommend 😍

@@Peter-zy5ox yes!! The most expensive I’ve ever seen on a cruise ship - I don’t know how they get away with it!!

@@jerrygurley8357 they’re so great aren’t they!!

@@AsifKhan-jq3vw thank you! Oh very exciting, not long left now. Have a great time 😊

@@itstimetotravel_now thank you!! Same with us 😍

@@theapprentice2298 hiya, thank you - yes it’s been lovely putting this vlog together after Christmas… I almost forgot about our cruise obsession! Now were ready to get another booked 😆 January sales are the best time of year to book according to David! Will be keeping my eyes peeled. Happy new year to you also 🎆

@@tgregg886 hiya, this was filmed 17th July 2024! The last of our Azamara series.

We got on the Journey on July 13 in Athens and disbarked on July 31, 2024 in Athens. So we were on it with you guys.

@@tgregg886 ah yes we did Athens to Venice so the first half of your trip. Absolutely amazing, we loved it. Itching to book another after looking back through this footage! Although maybe not Croatia in July again… it was scorching wasn’t it?! 🥵

It was way too hot. We are watching all of your videos to see if you captured us or any of our friends. We did the Journey again, this past November in the Caribbean, the temperature was perfect, as was the cruise. Thanks for posting, it's fun to remember the Azamara cruise via your videos.

@ haha let me know if you see anyone you know! Although I do try my best to not get strangers in the videos. The white night vlog will likely be your biggest success if you went. Oh we’d love to do the Caribbean with Azamara - it’s on our list! We had planned to do it this nov/dec but it didn’t work out, maybe next year. Glad to bring back memories - it’s one of the reasons we make these videos, so we never forget them. ☺️

@@bobmc42 thank you that’s very sweet. Despite all it’s been lovely to get all the family together at Christmas time. Glad you loved it - we’ll be looking at Azamara again soon, our favourite line we think. Just so great all round. Definitely recommend a med one☀️Thank you and hope you have a lovely new years!🎆

@@bobmc42 and fyi January/February is a great time to book anything if you can, the start of the year has the best deals!

Thanks, I’ll look into that. Cheers

@@darthnihilus511 I don’t have one set video on it but all of my recent ones since this summer are from a Croatia intensive Azamara cruise. I have one more vlog from a Croatia stop to release soon :)

@@darthnihilus511 everyone has an opinion, some always negative. We really enjoyed our Azamara Croatia cruise and would definitely do it again. My more recent Azamara videos will show you some of our experience on that sailing. We disembarked in Venice but yes it’s not the city, it’s about an hour out by taxi. If you’re worried, get your agent to book you a taxi so you know your plans for it, I know that puts my mind at ease! I don’t know for sure but would be confident to say Venice will be shut to cruise ships as it was awful for their water quality. It’s not too bad though docking further out, as long as you plan. I’m sure Azamara are likely doing pre cruise stays in Venice so worth asking about and they can figure that out for you also.

@ Thank you very much for your prompt response. I enjoyed your video and now I’m going to watch some more! I feel more at ease now, so thank you for that as well!

@@rkorest sorry I’m not 100% sure but we stayed in an ocean view on deck 4 and didn’t have any issues.

@@jfcleveland1138 hiya thanks for the feedback, this was one of my first ever videos and I’d like to know if in my more recent ones you think it has improved? I’ve invested in microphones and editing audio in hopes it has! Thanks 😌

@ Acoustics of the room you’re in may be more important than microphones.

@@andyskinner5420 what do you mean? It’s quiet?

@@2011Cape even better!!!

@@Mollie-JoGreen hahaha best advice 😌😍 tbf probs wouldn’t have even tried it if you hadn’t said to me

@@DavidFee-s1u great all round we think😍

@@DavidFee-s1u thank you🥰 yep nothing like it!

@@cara7309 oh how exciting!! Thanks for the comment, you’ll have an amazing time😍

@@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619 ahaha so much fun!!

@@jillrobinson4297 oh sounds amazing! I bet that’ll be magical. Hmmm I don’t eat much seafood so I wasn’t looking out for it. From memory they had seafood in the speciality restaurant Aqualina, and they definitely had lobster and sushi at the white night buffet - you can see that in my latest white night vlog. I don’t remember seeing any of that in the buffet. Have a fantastic time nonetheless!

@@allent1034 😂😂 you make a great point

@@enigmawyoming5201 ahaha well glad you found it helpful even on mute 😂 are you going on the pursuit or thinking of it?

@@BethandDavidCruise Thanks for the reply. My son and I are looking at a cruise somewhere on a smaller ship like Azamara has. I would like to talk to David to make arrangements for us. How can I contact him? TIA.

@@enigmawyoming5201 aw lovely, small ships are the best way to go 😍 yes of course, his email is david.wilburn@panachecruises.com just say you came from here and I’ll let him know to expect you! He’s working now for another couple of hours if you’d like to talk to him today☺️

@@juniperdog5523 hiya ☺️ Azamara cruises seem to differ a bit with each cruise. Our experience has been mostly uk and American, and some Canadian and Australians, this made up most of our cruises. Agewise, mostly older, with the majority over 50/60 probably, but there were a few younger couples like us around. We found although it’s on the older end, the people that choose Azamara are often very young in the soul, super friendly, chatty, energetic etc. so we didn’t feel the age gap too much. Both our Azamara cruises have been in Europe.

@@itstimetotravel_now hahaha it was a lot harder than we expected… we’re going to do it again on our next cruise in December but this time on the first sea day instead of waiting until a few days in. Seriously challenging! And utterly nuts to take scales into the restaurant😂😂

@@BethandDavidCruise Yes it would be smarter to do it on sea day 1 instead of mid-cruise! We look forward to that update and you hitting 2kg of food 🤣 And we may have to hide those scales as we walk into the restaurants to avoid the strange looks!

@@itstimetotravel_now hahah you’re right - 2kg will have to be the goal! At least for david 😂 the secret is the buy scales that are small enough that they just cover the bottom of the plate and they also look a bit like an iPad instead of scales 😂

@@BethandDavidCruise great tip! We will look into it.

@@richardg8651 thank you very much Richard 🥰

@@JacksMom-g4b we were deck 6 in the obstructed but got moved to deck 4 for the unobstructed. Certainly wasn’t a downgrade even though it was lower on the ship. I’m sure you can ask to move up for a small fee once you get onboard if you’re not happy (and they have capacity)! It’s definitely worth the extra in our opinion, but my parents stayed in an obstructed earlier this year and they were happy with it and they typically like a balcony or suite!

@@handl7567 ohhh jealous!! Have an amazing time. Glad we helped 🌞

@@BethandDavidCruise they now have the buffet theme nights on the interactive tv in the room.

@@handl7567 oh that’s handy! Have a great time 😍😊

@@theapprentice2298 thanks for the comment as always 🥰 I’m just waiting for them to announce a new ship! Must be in the works with how successful they are… ships are always crammed nowadays it seems.

@@BethandDavidCruise well we have two cruises boked for 2025. Celebrity Ascent in May and Regent Seven Seas Mariner transatlantic in November , first transatlantic jaunt :)

@@theapprentice2298 so exciting!! Looking forward to hearing about Regent - they’re on our list!

@@fxeditor1138 thank you for the comment. Aha always honest! 😇😊

@@Nick_Stock glad you enjoyed the food as much as we did! I agree with everything you’ve said. The thanksgiving sounds amazing - I know david would’ve loved that! We haven’t seen that before. And yes all the pizza on Princess is amazing, the pool area pizza is more like American dominoes style, and the restaurant pizza is a lovely homemade type pizza. Love them all😍😍 let me know what you think of it!

@@bobmc42 thank you as always 🥰 oh that’s coming up soon! We’ll be on Cunard then, which we’re excited for but we’re a tad sad not to be going back to Azamara… The onward needs to be ticked off my cruised list! Oh well you’re best placed to judge then, do let me know what you think of the food. I imagine Explora will be even better, we hope to try that one day😍 definitely want to know your opinions on that one 😊 have a great time 🛳️

@@dalecrosby2048 thank you, I’m glad my video made you chuckle 🥰

@@LK-nb1eu it’s open time dining so you go along when you choose (except the first night they “suggest” a time and restaurant only for that night) and you can pick the restaurant when you go, you simply turn up to one of them at any time during the evening. You can reserve tables at a specific restaurant on the app, but only at 5:30 or 8:30 I believe. This can be useful if you want to bypass the rush after the first theatre show for example, as you may have to wait since everyone goes at once. You get given a buzzer and usually isn’t longer than 15-20 mins wait. It’s very flexible so you can do as you please 😌 that was our experience at least.

@@timallen1994 oh this is very interesting to hear, thanks for adding your opinion. Like you say, food is highly subjective. We haven’t tried ama or Oceania, but I can imagine compared to the lines that are more expensive than Azamara, the food probably isn’t as good. Most of our comparisons and views on the food is in comparison to larger more mainstream lines, which we think Azamara definitely does better than. I definitely agree on the eggs though! We recently did another Azamara and didn’t eat the eggs at breakfast because of this. Sorry to hear you were disappointed. What lines do you think have the best food? Sounds like we need to try them!😍😍

@@darlenepurcell7541 hi, thanks for your opinion, it’s definitely a different culture overseas. My in laws are American and they are shocked every time they visit due to the lack of tipping. My experience asking crew is that they don’t see the tips, so yes we prefer to tip particular crew to ensure at least some of the crew benefit from tips. It’s a personal decision many people make.

@@shiningstar3519 thank you! Glad you found us😊 most cruises it’s serve yourself. I’m also hesitant about these things… if you’re fussy about it I’d try and stick with the smaller ships if you can, depending on your budget!

@@karinaescott505 thank you for watching 😊
