Sorry, Medeba, it isn't Civitavecchia.  

As yours is the only guess, I'll add the photo again.

 

 

As nobody has guessed this, as far as I can see, I'll tell you the answer.  SEVILLE !!!

Golly, I’ve been to Seville but not on a cruise, and recognise where this is. I didn’t realise how close the ship gets to the town centre.

We're hoping to get there with Azamara in Sep, so very happy to see what is apparently a great docking location.

One last picture from me.  I've now exhausted my supply of Azamara port photos.

We flew to Seville to start a Med cruise from there. We had 2 lovely nights in the centre of Seville.  Then Captain Carl then navigated down the Guadalquivir River to sea.

No it isn't, sorry!  Other side of the world.

That tree looks very like the one in my photo in an earlier post so I won't say anything for the moment!

Do you think it's about time we told people where our photos are from? Hilary

Yes would be a good idea, ours is Siracusa Sicily 😀

Am I correct in remembering that the ship was docked almost in the downtown area? It was a very short walk to the main sites. Or am I confusing this with another Sicilian port?

Yes mine was Siracusa too but Pursuit was docked on the other side of the bay on our cruise.

It's interesting because as I was looking at many of the photos that's exactly what I thought of them and why the experiences are special. Here's one. I think this was probably the most central I've ever docked at a port on Azamara. The second photo is looking down from deck 10.  Any idea?  Hint, it was a Baltic cruise.

Initial thought is Warnemunde, if so it’s a very different docking location from the big ships.

Another downtown dock mercifully near the local hostelries

Pursuit in Stavanger 12 years before she became Pursuit. We were on the ship docked the other side of the harbour, not sure if this was during the time Captain Carl was Staff Captain on her.

This is a very pretty port, not on too many itineraries.
