Why Should You Choose Azamara Club Cruises?

You travel primarily to visit fascinating destinations, and you want the opportunity to explore ports in the evening as well as during the day.

You are certainly not cheap, but you demand value for your hard earned money, which for you means more quality inclusions.

You prefer to associate with a more select clientele, eschewing throngs whenever possible.

You don't want to wear a suit and tie on vacation, preferring country club casual attire.

You expect excellent service in a comfortable, attractive environment, no matter where you are.

In its third year of existence, Azamara was awarded by Cruise Critic travelers for Best Service, Best Overall and Best Value among cruise lines in 2013.

What are some of the specifics that lead to such acclaim?

Azamara "Destination Immersion" includes Longer Stays, More Overnights and Night Touring in the world's great ports.

This includes AzAmazing Evenings excursions on every cruise (except Transatlantic crossings, obviously), such as a classical concert. 

AzAmazing Evenings are Complimentary, Authentic and Exclusive.

Staying late into the evening or sometimes overnight allows guests to further experience nightlife of destinations, and for those who choose to stay onboard, the longer stays in port allow Azamara to bring local entertainment onboard to provide more local flavor.

Azamara has free shuttle services to port town centers when you want to explore on your own rather than purchase an organized excursion.

Among other amenities always included on Azamara Club Cruises are free gratuities, free beverages including bottled water, gourmet coffee and select beer, wine and spirits. 

Azamara used to include concierge service in all rooms, but having learned through experience that the above amenities were valued far more by the average guest, they now have English-trained butlers for suites only.  Of course, you still have your wonderful waiters, room stewards and many other service members ready to help you at a moment's notice, including a Concierge.

The number 1 reason most people travel is to visit specific destinations.  If your travel focus is exploring wonderful destinations, Azamara is an excellent choice.  Because Azamara Quest and Azamara Journey are smaller than most mainstream ships, they can get into fascinating ports that are simply too small for big ships to fit into.

Quest and Journey are beautiful boutique ships that carry only 694 pampered guests, and you'll be treated to delicious meals and a wide range of onboard entertainment for less than you would spend for quality lodging alone in many of the Mediterranean ports.

While at first glance Azmara Club Cruises may seem to cost more than mainstream cruises, when you get to your final shipboard bill, you'll be pleasantly surprised by what a difference pre-paid gratuities and free drinks make, frequently dropping the net cost of your vacation below that of a mainstream cruise.

Better service leads to better trips!
