All the excursions where great Did the Giverny one ( Claude Monet) wher he lived and painted Just great Rouen walking tour is fabulous too Also Auvers sur Oise where Vincent van Gogh lived and is buriedDo not know if you are in to art but worth it. In Lyon we opted for the limited editon tour of les Halles with wine tasting. cheesetasting etc On the first cruise The truffle farm tour and a chateau was great Any other questions you have let me know

  3. We just returned Friday July 15, 2016 from the 1 week on the Rhone cruise( Amadagio) and then the Seine cruise on the Amalegro This was our 5th time with Ama Both itineraries are great Great food,service excursions etc Both ships are leaving the end of the year they are 10years old and they keep ships 10 years Both are in excellent condition Did the new Amavoila in May in Amsterdam Great ship with all the latestHad great weather on both cruises Normandy beach was a highlight Long day but worth it.If you need more info let me know

  4. My husband I did a Pandaw cruise last October in Burma on the Chindwin river and was absolute great The flight to Homalin was canceled and they only fly twice a week so they took us by bus to Bagan for 3 days on their other cruiseship with 68 pax but we were the only 8 and did we get spoiled on that cruise Back to Mandalay and the flight to Homalin for the last 4 days of the cruiseSmall ship 10 pax and we were 8 Great food,tours and the crew was very good and helpful Cannot say anything but great things about Pandaw Will do them again hope in India

  5. Sounds like AmaDagio. She is a special lady.

     

    We loved the itinerary and staff and crew were fabulous! Have a wonderful cruise!

     

    She is leaving the end of the year 10 years old They are getting 2 new ships. The Captain on the Amaviola last month told us that so is the Amalegro leaving the end of year Both great ships have a great cruise

Great food service and great excursions The Amaviola was brandnew(3rd cruise)and absolute gorgeousThe crew cannot do enough for you We are booked in July for 2 back to back cruises in France one on the Rhone and one on the Seine Will stay with Ama why change if it isgreat?

  7. That is correct they have to be new bills and also when changing that a bank you have to show your passport Cannot recall if there was anything at the port You are talking about Yangon port? We were in Myanmar in October and they would not accept damp money Hope this helps

  8. We do a lot of traveling and cruising and the last couple of time 5 week cruises and all with carry-on There is also a video on http://www.packinglight.com Take a lot of black and mitch and match lots of scarves jewelry to dress it upThe workoutshoes Ecco bioms I wear on the plane They are very light and lot of support Take a pair of ballerina flats and I always wear fitflops sandles very comfortable and supportive Walked all over the world in them 2 bathing suits and coverups for around the pool and pareo'sTravelsmith and Chico's traveler collection are great for travelingMy jacket is from Travelsmith a raincoat that folds up in a small bag with a hood and you can take the lining out when in warmer weather or leave it at home when traveling to warmer weatherHave been doing this for years and is great you always have your luggage We take an overflow bag when we buy stuff and ship that home as checked luggage Hope this helped.

  9. We sailed on the Sojourn in March for 5 weeks from Singapore to Athens and bought the unlimited for $ 399 and that was for the 5 weeks and they substracted our gold minutes from that worth $ 30 pp so it was great

  10. Glad you do not need the "boot" anymore What a pain to carry with you My problem has been gone too due to some wonderful massages in Thailand I agree with Blondie risotto with mushroom and truffle is divine We have a friend in Tuscany that owns a winery and makes the best risotto with mushrooms and taleggio cheese and truffleI am sure you will find it Hi to Blondie and who knows when we will pop again on SDTell then safe travels

  11. Hi ho-hum You might remember me you gave me you boot for plantar fasciitis to use on a crossing and it sure helped You were asking if anyone had sailed on Azamara and yes we did about 10 cruises due to the itinerary which SD did not have You cannot compare apples and apples They both are a different product We truly enjoy both cruiselines The food and service on SD is the best although food on AZ is outstanding since Robert van Rijsbergen is now executive chef on AZ ( remember him from SD) We have stayed twice in the owners suite and they are wonderful The normal suite is a little smaller then SD and the shower on SD is the bestNow they are also all inclusive Of course 684 pax compare to 112 on SD is different Even when we sailed with them when they are full you do not have that feeling The crew and other staff is wonderful Sailed a couple of times with the Captain form SD that went to AZ and he has not changed at all Still as visible and outgoing There is always a quiet spot to find in the shade and read and get a drink. The aft deck to eat outside is great or just have a drink If you have any more questions let me know Might see you again on SD

  12. Bill,

     

    I am totally locked out of my reservation. Cannot do online check-in, cannot do shore excursions, cannot sign up for Cruise Critic Meet & Mingle. This is my first experience with Azamara and being locked out of my reservation is not an experience I'd want to repeat.

     

    We are on Quest for the 18 February, 2014 sailing. The last name is Wilder.

     

    If you can get the IT people to fix it and need my reservation number my email is kelliepoodle@yahoo.com

    I have been trying for 3 weeks doing what you are doing We are sailing Dec9th out of Hongkong. Finally called AZ and they said just bring a copy of your booking to the pier Hope it works very frustrating
