Azamara Ashore: Expanding Exploration Beyond the Quays with a Revamped Experience
Azamara Cruises has announced the relaunch of its Azamara Ashore land program, aimed at extending the reach of its Destination Immersion® concept beyond just seafaring voyages. This initiative will provide passengers with enhanced opportunities for pre-cruise and post-cruise terrestrial explorations, encouraging them to engage more deeply with the ports of call and their surrounding areas.
Over the next few years, Azamara plans to roll out an additional 17 land tours, increasing the available options to a total of 64 programs covering diverse regions including Africa, Oceania, Asia, Europe, and the Americas. These tours are thoughtfully structured to give travelers more time on land, featuring organized stays with logistical support such as transfers and accommodations, while promoting interactions with local culture, history, and environments.
The new offerings will include immersive city stays, typically lasting two nights, which are designed for a more meaningful interaction with urban centers and nearby cultural highlights. Additionally, extended journeys lasting between three to six nights will connect various land experiences, showcasing local cuisine, guided explorations, and regional heritage.
This program also emphasizes partnerships, allowing for conveniences such as forward luggage delivery to hotels or cabins, thereby easing transitions between land and sea travel.
The relaunch of the Azamara Ashore land program is part of Azamara’s broader strategy to enhance its cruise products by focusing on extended time ashore and fostering cultural connections, a trend that aligns with the burgeoning interest in expedition and small-ship cruising that prioritizes comprehensive destination experiences.
