Azamara Journey

Join Azamara officers and crew for our signature dinner and entertainment event hosted al fresco on the pool deck (weather permitting). With an array of delicious food and engaging entertainment, your White Night experience will almost certainly be one of the most memorable times from your cruise. And don’t forget to bring something white to wear for the evening.

Step into a swanky nightclub as the great songs of the most magnificent artists come alive on stage. From classic crooners such as Frank Sinatra and Tony Bennett, to current songbirds such as Natalie Cole and Michael Bublé, there’s a song for every time and everyone. Enjoy a beverage, sit back, and be serenaded by the melodies of our lives with CLUB CROONER!

The idea of the Living Room is just that. To “live in” and to enjoy time with friends and fellow guests! Much of the room is furnished as a living room, with clusters of large comfortable chairs and sofas....

This congenial bar is a favorite gathering place for great conversations and delicious drinks. Bar service includes a full selection of fine wines, mixed drinks, and premium spirits…plus the entertaining banter of Azamara’s friendly bartenders.

Enjoy live performances of professional full-stage musical revues, classical soloists, bands and other entertainment in a cabaret nightclub with a full bar and cozy tables.

Adjacent to Windows Café, the Sunset Bar is a welcoming outdoor patio with covered and open-air seating, and a bar. It's the perfect place for dining alfresco, enjoying a refreshing drink, taking in the sights of your favourite port, or simply watching the world sail by.

Our onboard coffee corner may very well become your favorite nook on the ship. With elegant and comfortable furniture, it's bound to be one of the the most stylish places, too. Find all your favorite coffee drinks crafted just the way you like. Slip right into a comfortable seat and sip for a while—you never know who'll walk by.

Our Pool Bar serves refreshments while enjoying the Pool during the day, and cocktails of your choice in the evening.

You’ll be hard-pressed to find such a collection of limited production, small label and rare vintage wines anywhere on the high seas! And with vintages from France to California, and Argentina to South Africa, you’re sure to find a wine to suit your palate and your journey. Our knowledgeable sommeliers can help you pick the perfect wines for your evening meal.

First launched in 2011 to inspire guests to dive deeper into the heart of each destination, these extraordinary evenings showcase music, art, and culinary traditions in unique settings where authentic culture truly comes alive.​

Most AzAmazing Evenings® take place ashore, often in iconic venues while the ship stays late in port, aligning with our hallmark of Destination Immersion®, bringing guests closer to local culture in remarkable locations. On select occasions, including seven- and eight-night itineraries, equally captivating experiences are brought onboard.

*For sailings of 9 nights or longer, exceptions may occur when local infrastructure does not allow for an onshore event; in such cases, the experience will be hosted onboard. In rare cases—such as select transoceanic crossings or charters—AzAmazing Evenings® will not be offered.

Your quest to learn continues with Destination Speakers offering their expertise throughout each voyage with Azamara®. Facilitated through Compass Speakers, these experts will participate in a range of programs, classes, and lecture series — all created with our incredible destinations in mind. They’ll also hold Q&A sessions!

Nothing should keep you from enjoying every aspect of your Azamara® experience. From getting on board to getting out and immersing yourself in the amazing destinations we visit, we’re here to help every step of the way.

We welcome guests with special needs and disabilities. We happily offer accessible staterooms and all reasonable assistance to make your voyage truly hassle-free and most of all, memorable.

Information below provides details about availability of accessible facilities onboard, including means of boarding the vessel, rest rooms, staterooms, decks, dining, and recreational facilities as well as any limitations of the ship to accommodate guests with disabilities.

From “Bon Voyage” to “Bye For Now”

Our accessibility services extend beyond the time you spend on board. We’re here to help before you even get to the ship, getting on and off, and getting to shore during your voyage. Just let us know in advance—the more notice we have, the more prepared we’ll be when you join us for your immersive cruise.

Airport Transportation

If requested in advance, Azamara® can arrange for accessible transportation to transfer guests between the airport and the pier. This service is offered at no extra charge to our air/sea guests or those who have purchased cruise-only transfers. Accessible airport transportation may be limited or not available outside the U.S. See a travel agent or contact us for details.

Extra Assistance at the Pier

We offer boarding and departure assistance with wheelchairs for guests with mobility disabilities. While we ask that you let us know if you need this service in advance of your sailing date, you may request it once you arrive at the pier. During peak times there may be a wait for assistance.

While many ports provide easy access for wheelchairs and scooters, conditions may preclude guests using assistive devices from getting on or off the ship at certain ports. These conditions include: steepness of gangways, tendering, weather, tidal and sea conditions, and shore-side facilities.

We will make every reasonable effort to assist our guests, but for safety reasons, our staff is not permitted to lift guests or equipment. Assistance with manual wheelchairs, walkers, canes, etc. will be provided.

Traveling From Ship to Shore

At some ports, the ship anchors offshore, and guests will be taken to shore by small boats called tenders. Even if the ship is scheduled to dock at a pier, it can change to tendering at any time.

Guests using assistive devices who are unable to take a few steps will not be able to board tenders. In order to safely board most tenders, guests must be able to take steps and use a collapsible manual wheelchair. Additionally, motorized wheelchairs and mobility scooters can not be taken on tenders.

Weather, sea conditions, and other factors may preclude tendering. The safety of our guests and crew is our primary consideration, and the Captain and his staff will make the final decision regarding transferring guests and their assistive devices based on safety reasons.

If guests are unable to tender or disembark because of due to these circumstances, there will be no refund or credit for missed ports. While we recognize your disappointment, the safety of our guests and crew is our primary concern.

Cruising With Your Companion

Your service dog is welcome onboard, and we make every effort to ensure your comfort and theirs. Please note we do not accept pets.

A service dog is defined as "any dog that is individually trained to do work or perform tasks for the benefit of a person with a disability."

Our Commitment

Evidence that a dog is a service dog (such as identification cards, other written documentation, presence of harnesses and/or tags) is not required, but is helpful for our staff and crew.

We provide 4 foot by 4 foot relief areas with cypress mulch to accommodate service dogs. Relief areas are provided on a shared basis with other service dogs onboard. For sailings from the U.S., sod can be provided if ordered in advance and is available.

Please notify our Access Department as early as time of booking, but no later than 30 days prior to sailing if a relief area is needed.

Your Responsibility

Service dogs are permitted to accompany their owner in all public areas, including dining venues. While in public areas, service dogs must be on a leash, harness or other restraining device. Due to health regulations, service dogs are not permitted in pools, whirlpools or spas.

Care and supervision of your service dog is your sole responsibility. It is also your responsibility to provide food and care for the dog.

You may bring a reasonable quantity of food and bowls for your dog onboard the ship at no additional charge. If refrigerated space is needed, notify our Access Department as early as time of booking, but no later than 30 days prior to sailing.
