Azamara

From: European Cruise Guide

ABOVE: Azamara Journey in Santorini, Greece.

Azamara is a boutique line with four attractive ships: Azamara Journey, Azamara Quest, Azamara Pursuit, and Azimara Onward. Each ship is intimate by today's standards, with a capacity of just under 700 passengers. (We sailed on Azamara Quest during that ship's last voyage as the R7 of Renaissance Cruises, and we liked the vessel.)

In a typical year, Azamara offers dozens of cruises in the Mediterranean and Northern Europe, plus intercontinental repositioning voyages and a handful of itineraries that combine European destinations with North African or Middle Eastern ports.

• Please note: If you're the sort of person who likes to spend evenings ashore, Azamara may be a good fit. The line claims to have "more late-night and overnight stays" than any other cruise operator, and it also offers evening shore excursions in a number of ports.
