florisdekort Posted January 24, 2017 #6 Share Posted January 24, 2017 (edited) Larry Pimentel tweeted on Sunday: "Brand enhancement comes next Wednesday as we announce our new expanded bespoke land product. Stay Longer, See More!" I assume that's tomorrow's exiting news. Floris Edited January 24, 2017 by florisdekort Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phillygirl2400 Posted January 24, 2017 #8 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Per Bonnie MacLaird's Azamara Blog: "Bespoke is an adjective for anything commissioned to a particular specification. It may be altered or tailored to the customs, tastes or usage of an individual purchaser. Synonyms are 'custom-made', 'made to order', and 'made to measure'. Antonyms are 'Off-the-shelf' and 'ready-to-wear'." So, I guess the announcement will be about custom tailored excursions. Maybe overnight land excursions during a cruise? Just a guess!

aussie travel bird Posted January 24, 2017 #9 Share Posted January 24, 2017 When you go into Azamaraclubcruises.com , change your country to Canada or USA Why the countdown clock doesn't show on the Australian site? Convicts? poor cousins or just not important enough ? ☹️ Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBMacLaird Posted January 25, 2017 #15 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Bicycles, and much much more! Check out our new program called "Cruise Global, Connect Local". https://www.azamaraclubcruises.com/shore-excursions Also, at the top of our CC forum we've announced a Q&A for your questions to Larry Pimentel.

Rare uktog Posted January 25, 2017 #16 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Interesting - but Bonnie can I suggest a spelling change or you will really upset many Scottish readers - if you visit a distillery in Scotland you will see the distillation of whisky - there is no "e" in the creation of Scotch.

comas Posted January 25, 2017 #17 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Bonnie, I have been checking out this new programme and would normally be interested in the 10 night Classic Grand Prix and Med Voyage departing on 5th May 2018. BUT, according to the itinerary the ship will be in Monte Carlo on Saturday 12th and Sunday 13th May, 2018. As far as I can ascertain, the Monaco Grand Prix is, so far, scheduled for Sunday 27th May, 2018 - two weeks later! I was in Monte Carlo in 2015 for the 73rd Monaco Grand Prix, so in 2018 it will be the 76th Grand Prix. What I have noticed is that the voyage is titled Classic Grand Prix, but further reference to the race is Monaco Grand Prix. Very confusing and misleading. The Classic Grand Prix is a race featuring historic cars and needs to be made clearer and is on 13th May, 2018. Hopefully you will be able to contact the Land Discoveries team who will take a look and clarify the description of this excursion. Thanks, Paul.

comas Posted January 25, 2017 #18 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Hi uktog, I had spotted the error, but have been engrossed in writing the above observation. So glad you picked up on the spelling of whisky!! Irish and American whiskey has the 'e' of course!! Paul.

lizboyle Posted January 25, 2017 #21 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Whilst I love the idea, having looked at these for my voyage in May, I am gobsmacked at the prices. I'm a keen cook, love food, and enjoy wandering local markets, yet the price for a four hour tour in Livorno visiting a local market, choosing food for a shipboard dinner later that evening and visiting a brewery sampling 4 beers with focaccia is £270 each! 😨 Sorry, I'll pass!!

CruiseCrew123 Posted January 26, 2017 #25 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I think there regular trio are over priced so and at a loss to see why anyone would want to pay these over inflated prices - looks like more trips that will get cancelled due to lack of numbers - own goal I think !!
