Utopia1 Posted August 5 #126 Share Posted August 5 Azamara had an onshore Amazing evening on the July Pursuit 12 night cruise, (FYI the Journey was docked next to us and they had a different offshore Amazing evening). When we returned to the ship about 3 and one hours later we were greeted by a red carpet, musical greeting before boarding the ship for desserts and snacks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wjfan417 Posted August 5 #127 Share Posted August 5 We’re on the second leg of a Back to Back. The Norway Intensive had an offshore event (although at a different venue than originally indicated), and the Iceland cruise has an onboard event. We had 2 offshore events last year in Kusadasi and Kotor, neither of which I could attend because of walking difficulties. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seaventuregal Posted August 5 #128 Share Posted August 5 Great News!! We just received an e-mail from Azamara this morning for our October 12, 2024 cruise from Boston to Montreal notifying us that the AzAmazing evening will now be off-board in Quebec City on October 22nd at the Mamege Militaire de Quebec Theatre for a performance of "A Night with Machine de Circue". This replaces an onboard event previously scheduled for Saguenay. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our recent July 13 one was to be there, but the venue was changed without advices to guests prior. I found out only when I enquired onboard as it wasn't mentioned in the Voyger. The replacment venue was okay and I was pleased that we had the forsight to book entry to the cathedral on our own. Something you should not miss either way. The first reason I was given onboard for the change was guests complained last time it was held there as there was/is no air conditioning (really in a cathedral nearly 1000 years old?). However when we visit independently they were setting for for a 4-7 day festival (including stages etc) so I'm thinking it became 'unavailable'. Check for festivals in Trondheim for your dates. At least it wasn't held onboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure hope we get the same email soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mole.man Posted August 8 #134 Share Posted August 8 On the first of our B2B, "AzAmazing Evening" is a choice under "Interest" for excursions. It is onboard. On the second, I found it by manual searching. Is is onshore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Host Jazzbeau Posted August 9 #139 Share Posted August 9 "On shore." It's very confusing when people say their AzAmazing evening is now 'offshore' – because that means on the ship. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
150edmiston Posted August 10 #140 Share Posted August 10 We've been travelling for a few days and are only now catching up with emails. We recd. this from AZ on Thursday to inform us that there is an Azamazing evening in Rhodes on our short upcoming cruise at the end of the month and it looks interesting. We've had some really fantastic Azamazing evenings over the years, Manilla, Montevideo and Bali spring to mind. This one sounds great... Dear Guest, Your scheduled AzAmazing Evening Onboard for your sailing on Azamara Journey, August 31st, 2024, in Rhodes, Greece has been upgraded to an AzAmazing Evening. We believe this change will provide you with a truly memorable, authentic experience that immerses you deeper into the local culture. Here are some exciting things you can expect during the AzAmazing Evening – Knights and Opera at the Grand Masters Palace. The Grand Masters Palace was originally built in the late 7th century as a Byzantine Citadel and was converted into a palace by the Knights of the order of St John of Jerusalem, to be used by their Grand Master as his Headquarters. In 1310 the Knights took possession of the island of Rhodes and became known as the Knights of Rhodes. Join us in an enchanting evening of a musical tribute to the Knights of Rhodes at Promachonas, one of the inner rampart courtyards of the Palace with knights in armor and official dress lining the entrance to the venue. Enjoy a cocktail, sit back and relax under a star studded sky listening to a specially selected music and repertoire sung by a soprano and tenor. We look forward to welcoming you onboard soon! Sincerely, AZAMARA® 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ours (i.e.you too) is the one that ends in MC 7th October, the following cruise is reported as recently notified it's off ship so I'm assuming we'd have heard by now if the current onboard listing offered for ours was going to change. 🤞 🤞 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luv2travel90266 Posted August 22 #143 Share Posted August 22 Woke up to a great email from Azamara! Your scheduled AzAmazing Evening Onboard for your sailing on Azamara Pursuit on September 26, 2024, in Thessaloniki, Greece, has been upgraded to an AzAmazing Evening. We believe this change will provide you with a truly memorable, authentic experience that immerses you deeper into the local culture. Here are some exciting things you can expect during the AzAmazing Evening – Alexander Macedonia. Experience the grandeur of history at the Ceremony Hall of Aristotle University, where a mesmerizing event unfolds. A symphony of artistry takes center stage with 35 musicians, a soprano, and a conductor converging to weave a musical tapestry that brings to life the epic tale of Alexander of Macedonia. This monumental performance transcends time, immersing the audience in the legendary exploits of one of history's greatest conquerors. Accompanying this orchestral mastery, a choir of 40 members elevates the narrative with their harmonious voices, adding depth and emotion to the portrayal. The Ceremony Hall, steeped in academia and culture, provides an awe-inspiring backdrop for this immersive experience. As the music swells and the story unfolds, the audience will be transported to ancient realms, witnessing Alexander's triumphs and challenges, all brought to vivid life through the power of music. This event promises an unforgettable journey through the annals of history, leaving an indelible mark on all who bear witness to its splendor. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare uktog Posted August 22 #144 Share Posted August 22 Interesting language- “your evening has been upgraded”. I think for the sake of those having onboard experiences maybe changed would be more sensitive 😀 6 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luv2travel90266 Posted August 22 #145 Share Posted August 22 My opinion is this change by Azamara is positive. I still find the wine however not quaffable so change still needed there. Already have wine store addresses to visit for onboard dinner supplies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

susiesan Posted August 25 #147 Share Posted August 25 All of the cruisers in the next few months are very lucky that your AzAmazing Evening is being changed back to an onshore experience. I'm sailing Pursuit Sept. 8, our AzAmazing evening is Sept. 12 while in Kotor from 8:00am to 10:00pm. We are the only ship scheduled in Kotor that day but will not dock, we have to tender. So our evening has to be on the ship. I'm quite disappointed. Having to tender in to a port where the ship is there late into the evening makes it difficult to spend time on land after dinner, to take a walk. Having been to Kotor twice before and always docked, I can't understand the reason why Pursuit isn't docking. I know there's plenty of space for a ship this size.

beatnix Posted August 25 #148 Share Posted August 25 @susiesan We sailed on Journey in July and Kotor was announced as a tender port. But we docked, so maybe you are lucky and will also dock. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
