Smaller Ships, Bigger Sense of Place
The journey is the destination on Azamara

Azamara’s boutique-style ships carry fewer guests by design, and that choice changes everything. With access to smaller ports and the ability to dock closer to the heart of a destination, your days feel fuller and your evenings less rushed. This is not cruising as you once knew it. This is destination immersion at sea, designed for travelers who care less about waterslides and more about where they are waking up tomorrow.

Think overnight stays in iconic cities. Think late departures that let you linger over dinner, catch a concert, or wander cobblestone streets after the day-trippers have gone home. Azamara doesn’t believe in curfews when a city is at its most alive.

Azamara’s 2026 and 2027 summer sailings are your invitation to travel well and linger, plus receive exclusive amenities when you book with Montecito Village Travel, like $100 shipboard credit per person when booked in a Club Ocean View Stateroom or higher category. 

Summer 2026: European Charm, Natural Wonders, and a Celestial Show

Europe takes center stage in Summer 2026 with 77 new itineraries calling on the Mediterranean, Northern Europe, the British Isles, Ireland, and beyond. These aren’t quick port drop-ins — they’re thoughtfully designed voyages with late stays and overnight calls that let you explore local rhythms after the day-trippers leave.

Back to Beloved Ports – Azamara Cruises Returns to Dartmouth and Fowey

 For the first time since 2009 and 2018 respectively, Azamara Cruises returns to the picturesque U.K. ports of Dartmouth and Fowey—intimate harbors steeped in history and natural beauty. Dartmouth, home to the famed Britannia Royal Naval College, charms visitors with its medieval castle and scenic river cruises, while Fowey captivates with its literary heritage, stunning estuary views, and idyllic Cornish streets. Accessible only to smaller ships, these hidden gems showcase Azamara’s ability to reach off-the-beaten-path destinations that larger cruise lines simply can’t.

Destination Immersion, Perfected

What sets Azamara apart is its unwavering focus on time and access. Longer stays. Fewer sea days. More opportunities to experience a destination beyond its postcard version. 

Summer 2027 cruises offer 89 overnight stays and 381 late nights, giving guests unmatched access to destinations after dark. As the only cruise line offering evening tours, Azamara invites travelers to experience the magic of each destination long after the sun sets.

Guests booking early can take advantage of an Early Booking Bonus, which includes 20% off cruise fare. Travelers who book a Veranda cabin or Suite will also receive the Experience More Essentials Package ($300 onboard credit, premium beverage package for two, and free Wi-Fi). Plus the Always Azamara inclusions, valued at over $4,500

A Worldly Luxurious Experience

Spacious staterooms, attentive service that feels personal rather than performative, and a shipboard atmosphere that’s refined without being stiff. You’ll find world-inspired dining, an excellent spa, and thoughtfully designed spaces that invite conversation, reading, and reflection.

Azamara’s inclusive approach means fewer decisions and more enjoyment. Gratuities, select beverages, and cultural events are included, allowing you to settle into the rhythm of the journey without constantly reaching for your wallet.

The result is a smoother, more relaxed experience where the focus stays where it should: on the places you’re exploring and the people you’re traveling with.

Who should book Azamara? 

Azamara is for travelers who value depth over spectacle. For those who prefer lingering lunches to hurried tours. For guests who believe that the best way to understand a place is to stay a little longer and listen a little closer.

If you love cities at night, meaningful cultural experiences, and the feeling of being exactly where you’re supposed to be, Azamara will feel like it was designed with you in mind.
