Azamara Unveils "Hidden Gems Sale" with $500 Onboard Credit and Exclusive Perks
Azamara Cruises, the small-ship cruise line known for its Destination Immersion® experiences, has launched its "Hidden Gems Sale," offering travelers the chance to receive a $500 onboard credit on select sailings. This special offer is available for bookings made between August 22 and October 30, 2024. Guests who book a veranda or suite will also have the option to choose between complimentary unlimited Wi-Fi or a Premium Beverage Package, adding further value to their voyage.
The $500 onboard credit can be used for a variety of experiences on Azamara’s carefully curated shore excursions, designed to foster deep connections with each destination. Azamara’s Extended Destination Days, which offer 10 or more hours in port, provide guests ample time to explore historic sites, immerse themselves in local culture, or relax on beautiful beaches. Unlike larger vessels, Azamara’s small ships can dock at exclusive ports, granting access to unique and less-explored destinations around the world.
With the extended time ashore and the additional onboard credit, Azamara guests can enjoy a range of shore excursions that highlight some of the most compelling experiences on offer. For instance, on the 12-Night South Africa Intensive Voyage aboard the Azamara Quest, travelers can visit the Nelson Mandela Capture Site in Durban, where they will drive along a significant stretch of highway known for its historical importance as the location where Mandela was arrested in 1962 while disguised as a chauffeur.
For those embarking on the 14-Night New Zealand Intensive Voyage aboard the Azamara Pursuit, there is an opportunity to experience a Whale Watch Safari by helicopter over Kaikoura’s Whale Sanctuary. This thrilling excursion provides panoramic views of majestic whales in their natural habitat and includes a scenic coastal landing for an unforgettable photo opportunity and breathtaking vistas.
Another unique experience is available on the 11-Night Spain Intensive Voyage aboard the Azamara Quest, where travelers can explore the Orange Tree Farm in Valencia. Guests will delve into Carcaixent's rich orange-growing heritage, learn about the historical significance of the region’s famed oranges, and visit a traditional 19th-century orchard to sample freshly made marmalades.
On the 14-Night Japan Intensive Voyage aboard the Azamara Pursuit, food enthusiasts can indulge in a luxurious Kobe beef dinner in Kobe, Japan. This experience offers a chance to savor authentic Kobe beef, renowned for its high standards of production and exceptional taste, providing a memorable dining experience rooted in the local culinary tradition.
The "Hidden Gems Sale" by Azamara invites travelers to take full advantage of the onboard credit and explore these carefully crafted excursions, offering a unique way to discover new destinations with more time to immerse in the local culture and history. With its focus on smaller ports and extended stays, Azamara continues to deliver distinct, in-depth travel experiences that stand out in the world of cruising.
