Azamara is a deluxe new cruise line for discerning travellers interested in reaching out-of-the-ordinary destinations without sacrificing high standards of service.
A butler service is provided in every stateroom, shore excursions are designed to let guests do more than merely scratch the surface of each destination, 'enrichment programmes' offer everything from culinary to photographic explorations, two speciality restaurants serve excellent meals, and live entertainment can be enjoyed nightly.
Azamara Cruises consists 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.
The ships have recently undergone a $17.5 million refurbishment, adding new European bedding and soft goods, flat screen televisions, new veranda decking and furniture, and a wireless internet service in all staterooms and public areas. Plus, 93 per cent of the staterooms offer ocean views and 66 per cent 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.
