The Azamara Journey is one of the most distinguished boutique-style ships at sea, designed to deliver a cruise filled with culture, comfort, and refined discovery. With its timeless design, serene atmosphere, and the renowned Azamara service, the ship offers a cruise experience where exploration becomes truly meaningful.

Measuring approximately 180 meters in length and welcoming just over 700 guests, Azamara Journey feels intimate and personal—ideal for travelers seeking a cruise without crowds and with far more space to enjoy every moment. Thanks to its smaller size, each cruise aboard Azamara Journey can access unique ports that larger vessels cannot, opening the door to more culturally rich and immersive itineraries.

Its recently refreshed staterooms and suites radiate elegance and comfort, turning every cruise into a soothing escape. From stylish lounges and inviting bars to quiet reading areas and open-air decks, every corner of the ship is crafted to make guests feel at ease.

Gastronomy is a highlight of every Azamara Journey cruise. Specialty restaurants such as Aqualina, offering Mediterranean-inspired dishes, and Prime C, known for premium cuts and refined flavors, elevate dining at sea. Windows Café provides relaxed buffet-style meals with stunning ocean views, while Mosaic Café serves exceptional coffee and irresistible sweets throughout the day.

Entertainment onboard follows a more sophisticated approach, perfectly aligned with the character of an upscale boutique cruise. Live music, themed evenings, cultural events, and the iconic “AzAmazing Evenings” bring each destination to life in ways that enrich the overall cruise experience.

Azamara Journey also emphasizes relaxation and wellness. The Sanctum Spa offers a wide range of rejuvenating treatments, while the fitness center includes modern equipment and classes for guests who wish to stay active during their cruise.

With extended port stays, frequent overnights, and itineraries that go beyond the typical routes, a cruise on Azamara Journey is far more than a holiday—it’s an in-depth journey filled with history, culture, and authentic experiences. It’s the perfect choice for travelers who value quality, meaningful exploration, and a ship built around attention to detail.

Because every cruise with Azamara is not just a voyage from port to port — it is an experience that connects you with the world through the sea, culture, and true hospitality.

Αzamara includes late night or overnigh stays on more than half of all port visits. And that means richer, fuller experiences of local people and cultures around the world. With Azamara, you will have enough time to marvel at the nightlife of Asia, the rainforest of Costa Rica and the palaces of St. Petersburg. On Azamara's smaler ships you will sail to less-travelled ports, enjoy scenic rivers and waterways that are off-limits to big cruise lines, and dock in prime spots close to town. It all adds to a richer travel experience. And it gets even better with Azamara's focus on Destination Immersion, meaning longer stays, more overnight and night touring in many places you visit. You'll have time to dine on local foods and wines, go to jazz clubs and listen to musicians in the cafes, and walk the lighted ramparts in old cities. We think you'll agree the world is a wonderful place when you see the Azamara way.

That’s in addition to our complimentary AzAmazing EveningsSM events, created specifically for Azamara guests to participate in a unique night of culture. And, of course, fun.
