Azamara Cruises presents its summer 2026 sailings, featuring 77 new itineraries that will take guests to captivating destinations, iconic landmarks, and ports of call that will delight and inspire.
Azamara Journey®, Azamara Quest®, and Azamara Onward® will spend the summer season in Europe, cruising throughout the Mediterranean and Northern Europe, including extended stays in Greece, Ireland, the British Isles, and more.
Among the new itineraries, three solar eclipse cruises scheduled for August 2026 stand out, offering guests a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to witness this spectacular natural phenomenon from the sea.
“At Azamara Cruises, we always strive to offer our guests new and incredible experiences,” said Michael Pawlus, Head of Itinerary Planning at Azamara Cruises. “The rare opportunity to include solar eclipse cruises in 2026 is very exciting, and we are delighted to offer such a unique experience.”
In addition, Azamara Cruises will add five inaugural ports to its European itinerary in 2026—ports that are accessible only to smaller ships—and introduce new pre- and post-cruise land programs. These cruises will continue to offer more nights and overnight stays than any other cruise line, ensuring that Azamara guests have time to truly discover the culture and communities of these extraordinary destinations, without feeling rushed.
“Europe remains a leading destination for us globally, so we are delighted to announce one of our largest European deployments to date,” Pawlus continued. “With three ships in the region from March through October 2026, we can offer our guests more choices than ever before—taking them to lesser-visited ports and hidden-gem destinations and offering new immersive shore excursions for the first time.”
