When it comes to cruising, bigger isn’t always better. Azamara’s small-ship cruises offer a refreshing alternative, combining unique destinations, longer stays, and a truly more-inclusive experience. With fewer than 700 guests per ship, you can enjoy an intimate setting, personalised service, and destinations beyond the reach of larger vessels, making Azamara the perfect choice for your next getaway.
Discover hidden gems with small-ship cruising
Azamara’s intimate fleet offers a more personal and exclusive travel experience. Unlike traditional cruise ships that stick to major ports, Azamara’s smaller vessels can dock at unique, off-the-beaten-path locations. This means you get to visit less crowded, authentic destinations that others often miss and can dock right in the heart of bigger, more popular cities, meaning there’s no need for a lengthy coach ride to get close to all the most famous sights.
Longer stays and deeper connections
One of Azamara’s most unique offerings is its emphasis on extended stays and overnights in port. With over 850 Extended Destination Days and over 380 overnights, this cruise line invites you to take your time and truly connect with each locale. Explore bustling street markets, dine on popular local dishes, or share stories with locals over a cup of coffee. Whether it’s enjoying a late-night tango session in Buenos Aires or watching the sunrise from the Acropolis, these experiences are what set Azamara apart.
Experience all-inclusive luxury
Azamara truly redefines convenience and comfort at sea. A variety of dining venues, beverages (including premium alcohol), gratuities, and cultural experiences are already included in your cruise fare. With a staff-to-guest ratio that prioritises personal attention, the service onboard is nothing short of impeccable and if you’re feeling peckish late at night, their 24-hour room service has you covered.
Leaders in destination immersion
For those with a taste for adventure, Azamara’s Destination Immersion® programmes are game changers. This includes their signature ‘Country Intensive Itineraries’, which allow guests to focus on one specific region in depth. From discovering ancient cities along the Mediterranean to exploring the snow-capped beauty of Scandinavian landscapes, Azamara takes you beyond surface-level sightseeing. Their carefully curated shore excursions often incorporate enriching experiences, such as hands-on cooking classes and private musical performances.
