Cruise Line Information

Azamara Club Cruises

Azamara Club Cruises is a deluxe cruise experience for discerning travellers who long to reach out-of-the-ordinary destinations and indulge in amenities and service unparalleled on the high seas.

The unique offerings of Azamara Club Cruises are beyond compare: butler service is provided in every stateroom; shore excursions are designed to let guests become part of the fabric of life in each destination, instead of merely being an observer; the enrichment programs offer everything from culinary to photographic explorations; two specialty restaurants provide the finest cuisine at sea; live entertainment can be enjoyed nightly; and the level of service offered is unmatched.

Azamara Club Cruises consist of two intimate ships, Azamara Journey and Azamara Quest. Each can carry 710 fortunate guests and because they are smaller and sleeker than larger cruise ships, they can sail to ports that others simply cannot reach.

In addition to offering a more personalized experience, the ships have recently undergone a $17.5 million revitalization with new European bedding and soft goods, flat screen televisions, new veranda decking and furniture, and wireless internet service in all staterooms and public areas. Plus, 93% of the staterooms offer ocean views and 68% have a private veranda.

You may be wondering where the name Azamara comes from. Azamara is a coined term derived from the Romance languages. This includes the more obvious links to blue (az) and the sea (mar). The name was also inspired by a star, Acamar.

In Classical times, the star Acamar was the most southerly bright star that could be seen from the latitude of Greece. Azamara Cruises can be seen as a star on the blue sea.

Destinations

CARIBBEAN
Most would find it difficult to describe the beauty encountered on a Azamara Caribbean cruise, for the simple reason that some of our itineraries are not accessible to larger ships; therefore, many cruise passengers will never see it, which is advantageous for you, as you will witness the most serene shades of turquoise on earth. Each exotic port is a colourful canvas, painted with a host of nature's gifts, for a select few to enjoy.

ASIA
Do much more than see the many lands of the Far East, become a part of their mystery and wonder with Azamara. Bangkok, Vung Tau, Pusan and Kyoto - this is truly a spectacular voyage that will take you to out-of-the-ordinary destinations. What's more, along the way, you can enjoy the unparalleled service and casual elegance of Azamara Quest.

BERMUDA
In the middle of the Atlantic Ocean lies a British paradise that most know by name, but fewer have explored its harmonious shores. Pink beaches, candy-coloured houses, brilliant coral reefs, and more golf courses per square mile than anywhere in the world, Bermuda is an inviting haven that beckons to be discovered.

EUROPE
Behold the colourful, changing landscapes and ancient coastlines that unfold before you on a Azamara cruise through Europe. The treasures to discover on a European cruise are many - and there are even more hidden gems you'll uncover when you sail with Azamara. Explore charming bistros, romantic bridges, towering castles, and inspirational cities - all the while enjoying our impeccable service and outstanding cuisine.

PANAMA CANAL
It's a voyage that nature never intended, and a shining example of what the human spirit can accomplish. Witness for yourself the grandeur of the Panama Canal, surrounded by unsurpassable amenities. We will also be calling on warm, exotic shores in Costa Rica, Mexico, Colombia, and more. It's a sailing that most can have only dreamed of, but one that you can do quite splendidly, especially aboard Azamara.

SOUTH AMERICA & ANTARTICA
If an enchanting, yet diverse voyage is what you seek, then look no further. From the seductive city of Buenos Aires to the far stretches of Patagonia, each port of call provides a celebration of unspoiled beauty that only a fortunate few will ever witness. Like many great conquistadors of the past, you may choose to round the edges of Cape Horn and continue on in complete wonderment as you make your way to the vast White Continent of Antarctica.

Shore Excursions

Experience the far-reaching corners of the world in a most unique way with Azamara's shore excursions. Well beyond an ordinary tour; be prepared to be totally and completely immersed in local cultures, cuisines, history and lifestyle.
