Azamara

Azamara Club Cruises

Azamara Club Cruises are the perfect choice if you are looking for unique destinations, enriching experiences and the comfort and luxury of a smaller ship. Azamara Journey and Azamara Quest both sail with just under 700 passengers on board, allowing you to enjoy an intimate but sociable atmosphere and unparalleled personal service.

Azamara Club Cruises generally appeals to couples, single travellers and groups of friends who are well travelled, but are looking to experience a wider choice of ports. They enjoy the cosy 'country-club' feel, superb cuisine and sophisticated surroundings, as well as the excellent choice of leisure and entertainment facilities that can be found on board.

Food and Drink

Considering the smaller size of both ships, you will be spoilt for choice when it comes to dining. The open seating in the main dining room allows you the freedom and flexibility to eat at a time that suits you, so if you are late arriving back from an excursion one day you know you won't have to rush to dinner. The two speciality restaurants - Aqualina and Prime C - offer a culinary experience like no other. In Prime C you can sample succulent prime steak cuts and fresh seafood, whilst the cuisine in Aqualina is inspired by the flavours of the Mediterranean, featuring popular classic dishes with a modern twist. In addition to these restaurants there are several other casual eateries including a self-service buffet with an outdoor deck area, pool-side grill and salad bar and coffee shop that serves speciality drinks and snacks.

From the beginning of Spring 2013, both ships will be offering an more inclusive* experience which will include selected standard spirits, international beers and wines in all restaurants and bars plus all beverages that were previously included such as speciality tea and coffee, bottled water and soft drinks throughout the ship.

*Please note that all alcoholic beverages ordered from your cabin are not included and a charge will be made.

Entertainment

Azamara Club Cruises offer a fantastic choice of entertainment facilities and activities to keep you entertained day and night. During the day you can join in with the various trivia games and quizzes, while away a few hours in the library, unwind with a spa treatment, or just soak up the sun around the pool. You'll also be able to take part in the excellent on board enrichment programmes which are a fantastic way to learn more about a wide variety of subjects. These lectures are presented by guides and experts who give in-depth demonstrations and seminars on their subject, which include history, art, culture, nature and science. In the evening the numerous bars and lounges come to life with fantastic shows, cabaret acts, live music and dancing, with much of the entertainment themed around the destinations you are visiting.

As part of the new revitalisation programme, on both ships from Spring 2013 onwards you will also be able to experience an AzAmazing Evening; a complimentary event which is offered on every sailing to give you the chance to experience everything the ports of call have to offer. They could range from a night in a Monte Carlo casino to a polo match in St. Tropez, or a gala dinner at the Belfast Titanic Museum to a night at the ballet in St. Petersburg.

Destinations

Azamara Club Cruises are destination experts and pride themselves on taking you off the beaten track to unique, unusual and out-of-the-ordinary ports of call. Their small size means they can visit secluded ports and unspoilt areas that larger cruise ships can't reach, giving you the opportunity to really immerse yourself in the destinations you visit. As well as the Mediterranean and Europe, the ships journey across the globe to the Caribbean, Mexico and the Panama Canal, South America and the Amazon River, and Asia and the Far East. On board the ship you will be provided with all the tools and information you need to make the most of your time ashore, with informative port talks hosted by naturalists and guides. And when you arrive on dry-land you will find you are given plenty of time to truly explore your destination, as the itineraries include more overnight stays in port and late-night departures than any other cruise line.
