Travel Essentials

Prepare for the adventure of a lifetime with Azamara Cruises’ groundbreaking 188-night World Cruise in 2027. Departing from the iconic shores of San Francisco on January 5, this extraordinary voyage aboard the intimate Azamara Quest will transport 702 fortunate guests across five continents, touching 37 countries and 103 mesmerizing destinations before arriving in Copenhagen on July 12. This isn’t merely a cruise; it’s a profound immersion into global cultures, landscapes, and experiences, complete with over $40,000 in value-added amenities per stateroom.

Why This Voyage Redefines Luxury Travel

Azamara sets itself apart with its small-ship philosophy, enabling access to secluded ports and extended stays that mega-ships can only dream of. With 65 late-night and overnight port calls, travelers gain genuine time to explore—savoring local cuisines after dark, wandering vibrant night markets, or witnessing sunrises over historic harbors. The itinerary boasts 15 exclusive events, including 12 signature AzAmazing Evenings and three bespoke charters: a festive San Francisco send-off, a private flight to Yangon’s shimmering pagodas, and a spirited reception in Cork, Ireland.

Every facet of onboard life exudes sophistication. Guests enjoy unlimited premium beverages, specialty dining across multiple venues, room service around the clock, all gratuities covered, and even unlimited laundry services. High-speed Wi-Fi keeps you connected, while $5,000 onboard credit and $3,500 in shore excursion credits empower personalized adventures.

Charting the Course: A Continent-Spanning Itinerary

The journey unfolds in 12 captivating segments, blending iconic landmarks with off-the-beaten-path wonders. From Pacific paradises to Asian metropolises, Alaskan wilderness, and European fjords, each leg promises transformation.

Pacific Paradise and South Seas Magic

Sail westward from San Francisco through days at sea, arriving in Honolulu for Hawaiian aloha spirit. Continue to the turquoise lagoons of Bora Bora and Tahiti in French Polynesia, where overwater bungalows and volcanic peaks await. Cross the International Date Line to American Samoa’s Pago Pago, then Fiji’s Savusavu for coral reefs and village ceremonies.

Down Under Delights and Asian Explorations

New Zealand’s fjords in Milford Sound and Stewart Island offer raw natural beauty inaccessible to larger vessels. Australia’s Sydney Harbour, Melbourne, and Margaret River deliver urban buzz and wine country serenity. Venture into Southeast Asia with overnight stays in Bali, Bangkok’s chaotic charm, and Halong Bay’s limestone karsts.

Northern Horizons and Transoceanic Thrills

Japan’s Tokyo and Hong Kong provide neon-lit nights, followed by Alaska’s Inside Passage glaciers. Transit the engineering marvel of the Panama Canal, then New York City’s skyline. A transatlantic crossing leads to Northern Europe’s Kiel Canal, Stockholm, and Baltic gems like Gdansk, Klaipeda, Riga, before Copenhagen’s fairy-tale finale.
