Destination Immersion

Be an Armchair Traveler at Sea?

What?
Yes, it’s possible to be an “armchair” traveler when you’re a guest sailing aboard Azamara Club Cruises® Azamara Journey® or Azamara Quest®.
Here’s how:
When you visit our serene, wood paneled onboard library with its dramatic recessed ornamental ceiling, whose name has been enhanced to ‘The Drawing Room by Assouline,’ you’ll be able to comfortably relax as you immerse yourselves into spectacular destinations through the exquisitely crafted books by Assouline, a creator of fine, illustrated books.
Through an exclusive partnership between Azamara and Assouline, you will find more than 200 titles of their fine illustrated books, luxury editions and gift lines that reflect the destinations where our ships sail. Titles featured for guests to enjoy include American Fashion Travel, Condé Nast Traveler: Room with a View, In the Spirit of St. Barths, Lights of Venice and Lights of Istanbul along with others dedicated to photography, art, and ancient philosophies.

Azamara Club Cruises Announces A New Cure for Wanderlust!

If you’re an up-market traveler driven by acute wanderlust, Azamara Club Cruises is throwing open the doors to the world and inviting you to combine two, three, four or more consecutive voyages into one incredible regionally immersive experience. With Azamara Quest or Azamara Journey sailing in the Far East, the Mediterranean and Northern Europe, or South America, travelers simply need to pick a season before embarking on a voyage of a lifetime, ranging from 11-to 78-nights without repeated ports of call.

Our exclusive “Wanderlust” cure is simple and it’s called – “Azamara’s Extended Voyages 2011-2012.” It offers travelers with more discretionary time the opportunity to stay in port longer and enjoy more overnights in more captivating destinations. You already understand that to truly experience a destination in a unique way there is only one way to do it – stay longer. The benefits of an extended voyage will expose you to new destinations and allow you to see the world with new eyes. With Azamara’s Extended Voyages you can enjoy the distinct customs of cultures around the world as you combine up to seven different voyages into a single extended holiday.

One Look Is Worth a Thousand Words

When “Azamara Cruises” was re-branded in December 2009 to “Azamara Club Cruises” and then in April 2010 when our cruise tariff became “more inclusive” one of our top priorities was to relaunch our website so that ‘up-market’ travelers could better understand the promise of our new tagline – “You’ll love where we take you.”

For me, when I visited our relaunched website www.AzamaraClubCruises.com  this past weekend, I was struck with how well the new site brought to life our distinctive destination-immersive experience. I was fascinated with our new homepage and its interactive “Azamara Globe” which put the world of destination immersion at my fingertips.  I found that I could spin the globe and select various regions or ports for concise information about the exciting destinations where either the Azamara Journey or Azamara Quest will be sailing in the months ahead. Maybe in the next iteration I’ll be able to see it in 3-D!
