Seville is pretty flat and easy to walk. Both times we’ve been there, either my husband or I had some foot issues but didn’t have any problems there. We walked to the Alcazar and cathedral, as well as the park with the beautiful tiles.

Is there any way to see the exterior of the monasteries without the hike up and down (can you wait at the bottom while the rest of the tour goes up)? Looks beautiful but unfortunately both my husband and I have developed some foot issues and wouldn’t be able to do the climb.

Every time I’ve tried to reset my password, I get a response saying I’m not authorized to view that site. I finally set up my husband’s new password today. All of our cruises are showing, all of our balances are correct, and our account numbers are the same. It does show my husband has moved up a level with an extra 2000 points than he actually has. We’re also missing a bunch of onboard credit. Since our next cruise isn’t until mid-July, I’ll try again in a couple weeks.

Good arrival timing. We’ve done that cruise twice and have had to get up in the middle of the night both times to see that. Seville is beautiful and very easy to get around on your own.

Neither my husband or I have received either email!

It’s probably the Hemisferic show in Valencia which we attended as the AzAmazing Evening in 2019. It’s a great acrobatic show. You will need to register in advance. You won’t know when White Night is until you’re on the ship (it will be a night when you’re in port late or overnight). It can also change because of weather.

Love AMA-we’ve been on 4 of their river cruises including Vietnam and Cambodia with a land package.

Interesting-the link takes you to a page that looks exactly like the Spain Day Tours website. I wonder if the companies are related. I’m going to see what they offer for our ports in October because I’ve seen enough of Rome and Florence for awhile.

Did you check the roll call for that cruise to see if anyone has organized an excursion that day? We’ve taken a train to Rome from Civitavecchia on a previous cruise and were able to see quite a bit before taking the train back.

That link is also showing our September cruise docking in Villefranche.

We stayed at El Palace pre-cruise when we were there in 2019. I loved the area, but looking for something a little less expensive this September. I’ll take a look at some of these suggestions.

It will be listed in the daily Insider. On the 4 cruises we took last year, they were on Embarkation Day.

We’re on that cruise also. I added the cruise to our Croatia Intensive because of the Four Sisters Meet AzAMazing Evening. Disappointed at the change but we had 4 excellent on board AzAMazing Evenings last year so I’m sure we’ll enjoy.

Our first Mediterranean cruise in the 1990’s was a last minute replacement for a barge trip in the Carmarque which was cancelled at the last minute due to plumbing issues and a subsequent train trip to Italy. Since we already had rail passes, we took trains to Florence and Rome instead of shore excursions. We hadn’t been to either and could see what we wanted on our own schedule.

Tried to edit to change the question mark to an exclamation point, but it didn’t give me that option. Both were very good-no question about it!

We did the French and Italian Chef’s Tables last fall and both were very good? Agree with the above post that the wines were much better quality.

There is a roll call for this cruise that might answer your question or you might get a better response if you post there. There is a link at the top if the Azamara page for roll calls. Enter your ship and travel month.

I’ve brought a case from Oregon in the VinGardeValise and it was just under 50 pounds. I just bought an 8 bottle case during their recent sale to use for Europe.

On our first Azamara cruise in 2012, we took our adult children with us and booked an inside cabin for them and an outside cabin for us. The inside cabin was extremely dark! I’ll never book an inside cabin based on that experience.

The dining schedule above shows the Patio open for lunch from noon until 5 p.m. which is what I remembered from our fall cruises. I’d go up in the late afternoon looking for the dinner menu and they were still serving lunch.

We never used our 2 free nights-booked a cruise with it but when there was a special offer that was much lower I gave up the “free nights” and rebooked at the lower fare. I am using my 4 nights on a 7 night Croatia Intensive in the fall. I also booked on board so we received that discount as well as $150 per person OBC. I added the previous cruise too, so we also have the B2B discount. I keep monitoring the cost and so far the free nights are working out. On a previous thread on the free night topic, someone said it is best to use them on a 7 day cruise or a Norway Intensive which doesn’t get discounted often.

You might want to check with your travel agent or Azamara to see if they are offering cruise only airport transfers.

We were on 3 cruises in the late summer and they were offering shuttles then. Unfortunately, we didn’t go to Valencia on any of those cruises so can’t answer that question.

I have 1 point for my first cruise in 2012!

I normally carry a spray bottle of wrinkle remover when I travel (well sealed in a couple plastic bags in case of leaks).
