Very enjoyable trip. Azamara continue their high standard. The Journey is getting a little tired. We don’t like shower curtains but the small bathroom wouldn’t fit a shower screen. The service was excellent throughout. Food was very good, with a decent choice. The standard beverage package wine selection was a little underwhelming for us. We upgraded and the wines were much nicer. The organisation for the Monoco Grand Prix was exceptionally well executed and we were very impressed. Overall, we had a superb holiday experience. The only disappointment was the late changes to the itinerary. Due to chaotic shuttle busses and late arrival into Palma we we were unable to disembark. We were also later than scheduled into Ibiza which didn’t give sufficient time ashore.

The Azamara cruise was very enjoyable and ship very comfortable. But excursions were very expensive and whilst some were very good it is difficult to say they were value for money.

It was mostly used for gladiatorial combat and fights with animals until around the 6th century when it began to fall into disrepair.

As it stands now, however, more than two-thirds of the structure has been destroyed.
