The ship was very nice with great food, staff, environment and entertainment. Ports were great, but unfortunately we spent too much time and money on the ship's excursions. We should have focused more on the towns close by.

Small computerized casino was pitiful. Minimal player options for Black Jack with obvious bias to computer.

Ship tip
Schedule your own excursions. Spend time in the towns rather than hours in a bus.
Having read The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society made the visit to this island much more interesting! We were only here 1/2 day & needed more time at this port!
Did not visit Cobh or Cork. Took an Azamara excursion to Waterford Crystal. The factory was very interesting, but the town lacked charm and interest. The tour guide was boring and talked non-stop! Too long a ride to visit Waterford.
Independent visit to DISCOVERY, the south pole exploration ship was very interesting. Independently rode horses at Pathhead. Independent visit to Broughty Ferry, an upscale beach village just outside of Dundee. Overnight at this port, but no ship transfers after 6 pm.
Independent visit to Britannia was very nice. Independent visit to Edinburgh Castle interesting. Again, ship was in town overnight, but no ship-to-town transportation was available after 6 pm.
