This is long overdue, my 2023 Asian Odyssey Score Card. My cruise on the Azamara Quest was very enjoyable and good value.

My 2023 Asian Odyssey Score Card has been a long time in coming… I guess I need to get this out before my 2024 cruise starts. First up though was is my arrival in Singapore. Singapore Arrival My 2023 Asian Odyssey was the first non-working cruise or one that went somewhere, that I arrived in Singapore onboard a sea going vessel. We arrived at the Habourfront Cruise Terminal, which is…

My final Chef's Table experience was the French Chef's Table, the wine pairing was French. This was the best of the three

The last table to be presented as a part of this cruise was the French Chef’s Table and it was paired with French wines, so should be interesting. The French Meal Continue reading 2023 Azamara Quest French Chef’s Table

One of the experiences offered on Azamara Cruises is their Chef’s Table. Fairly simple the ship’s Executive Chef and his team cook dégustation dinners that focuses on a specific cuisine, tonight’s was the Asian Chef’s Table. The menu is paired with wines so you get a full gastronomic experience. The Chef’s Tables are not included in your fare so there is a top up needed, though this is pretty…

Our departure from Ho Chi Minh City had us back tracking down the Mekong River, this time in daylight. An interesting trip of 50nm (90kms)

We departed Ho Chi Minh City at 12pm reversing our trek down the snake like Mekong River back to the South China Sea. This time the 50nm (90kms) would be in daylight so the view from my cabin’s balcony will be great. Before we left though we got to watch the locals do some drill practice on the wharf. Continue reading Day 16 Ho Chi Minh City

Our last port of call before Singapore was Ho Chi Minh City or Saigon. A very hot day too hot to explore, so just chilled out.

After another relaxing day at sea and 480nm (888kms) we arrived in a very hot Ho Chi Minh City our last port of call and an overnight stay. As I am frequent visitor to Ho Chi Minh City for work so decided to chill for the day and overnight just enjoy a day and night doing nothing in the city. Arriving in Saigon is a bit of a task for the crew as the transit from the South China Sea is about 50nm…

Our first port of call in Vietnam was Da Nang. My tour for the day would include Hoi An with a visit to the market and a spot of cooking.

After a day at sea and 515nm (955kms) we arrived in Da Nang Vietnam. This was my first visit to Da Nang and was not to be a long one as my tour for the day was to be in Hoi An. In Hoi An I attended a Vietnamese cooking class… Can’t wait. We also had a visit to another food market! Another first for us, the Azamara Quest was the first cruise ship to arrive in Da Nang since Covid. Might explain…

Hong Kong was our next stop with a two day visit, gave me a chance to revisit Kowloon and to go to James Suckling's Wine Central

After another relaxing day at sea and 475nm (880kms) sailing from Keelung we arrived in Hong Kong, one of my favourite cities in the world, to visit. Hong Kong is a bit too busy, with compact accommodation that is way to close to each other for comfort. Hong Kong is another port where we stayed overnight so I took the opportunity to visit a few places I had not been to since the start of Covid.…
