BBMacLaird Posted December 12, 2018 #1 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Captain Johannes Tysse, master of the Azamara Journey, has given a lovely interview on the upcoming voyage 11-Night Bermuda and the Old South. This unique voyage sails round-trip 4/10/19 from New York and spends two nights in Charleston South Carolina, as well as two nights in Hamilton Bermuda. And to top it off, the person at the helm sailing to his home base of Charleston will be Capt. Johannes! In the below linked interview he tells us about his favorite things to do in Charleston, where to eat, places he believes history buffs will enjoy, and his top three 'non-touristy' must-dos. https://www.azamaraclubcruises.com/blog/captains-guide-charleston-south-carolina Let me know what you think of the article. And if you have been to Charleston SC or Hamilton Bermuda, what recommendations do you have for what to do, where to go, what to eat there? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lois R Posted December 13, 2018 #2 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Hi Bonnie, I read that on the other thread...….very interesting thoughts and observations. I have been to both places before and will be sailing with Azamara for the first time on this itinerary. Looking forward to seeing what Azamara is about and to visiting both places again as well.

Hi Lois R, here's what I've learned: We will be at the Manhattan Cruise Terminal for both April 10 and April 21, 2019 at either Pier 88 or Pier 90 which are right next to each other. The terminal occupies the West Side of 12th Avenue between 46th and 54th streets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MMDown Under Posted December 19, 2018 #15 Share Posted December 19, 2018 (edited) You'll have no trouble finding the ship. When I was in Manhattan recently, our ship (MS Fram) changed berths, between these berths, during an overnight stay. I enjoyed the Captain's Guide to Charleston, SC. I walked all day, just exploring, during a recent port visit of this beautiful southern city, which is well worth a longer stay.

ptrpanpens Posted December 20, 2018 #16 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Wow just looked at prices on this cruise and they have really dropped. What a great deal. I only wish I could book it but I am going to France at that time. But anyone looking for a great deal should check it out as well as the following TA. goes to show that there are some excellent deals to be had if you have flexibility.
