Azamara announces its 2025 World Cruise, departing from San Diego, California, and visiting 37 countries before concluding in Southampton, UK. This itinerary, aboard the Azamara Onward, will include 15 overnight stays and 31 longer port calls, giving guests more time to immerse themselves in each unique destination. Due to the high demand for Azamara’s 2024 World Cruise, which is currently sold out with a waitlist, the cruise line is showing its appreciation to business partners, loyalty guests, and World Cruise passengers by giving them the exclusive opportunity to book first.
“We are thrilled to be embarking on our second World Cruise aboard the Azamara Onward. With 60% of the ports of call on this cruise being different from those on our 2024 World Cruise, this itinerary was carefully designed to give even the most seasoned travelers a fresh perspective on the world,” said Carol Cabezas, President of Azamara. “Our 2025 World Cruise invites travelers not only to see the world, but also to take their time in each destination and create memories that will last long after the voyage has ended.”
Destinations featured along the itinerary include:
– Honolulu, Hawaii
– Samoa and Tonga
– Sydney, Australia
– Stewart Island, New Zealand
Azamara’s 2025 World Cruise will feature 13 complimentary shore excursions, beginning with an opening gala in San Diego. Other highlights of Azamara’s shore experiences include:
– Benoa, Bali: Guests will discover the natural beauty of Benoa and the charm of the island’s deep-rooted culture during a special AzAmazing evening, where local performers will showcase traditional dance forms with intricate footwork and finger movements.
– Bangkok, Thailand: A two-night stay offers guests the opportunity to truly immerse themselves in Bangkok’s local culture through the city’s food, music, dance, art, and Buddhist temples. Travelers can opt for shore excursions to the mountainous city of Chiang Mai in northern Thailand and to the Southeast Asian country of Laos, known for its Buddhist monasteries and French colonial architecture.
– Semarang, Indonesia: Semarang is known as the Venice of Java because of the many rivers that flow through the city center. From this port, guests can take a shore excursion to Borobudur, the world's largest Buddhist temple, dating back to the 9th century.
In addition to taking guests to every corner of the world, Azamara's 2025 Around the World cruise offers onboard credit, shore excursion credits, round-trip business class travel, a premium beverage package for two, weekly laundry service, and much more.
