Azamara Quest is the new, deluxe cruise experience for discerning travelers who long to reach out-of-the-ordinary destinations and indulge in amenities and service unparalleled on the high seas. Azamara is a branch of Celebrity Cruises, Inc.
Azamara Cruises consists of two intimate ships, Azamara Journey and Azamara Quest. Each can carry 710 fortunate guests and because they are smaller and sleeker than larger cruise ships, they can sail to ports that others simply cannot reach.
In addition to offering a more personalized experience, these ships have recently undergone a $17.5 million revitalization with new European bedding and soft goods, flat screen televisions, new veranda decking and furniture, and wireless internet service in all staterooms and public areas. Plus, 93% of the staterooms offer ocean views and 68% have a private veranda.
The unique offerings of Azamara Quest are beyond compare:

- Butler service is provided in every stateroom
- Shore excursions, are designed to let you become part of the fabric of life in each destination, instead of merely being an observer.
- An enrichment programs offer everything from culinary to photographic explorations.
- Two specialty restaurants provide the finest cuisine at sea.
- Live entertainment can be enjoyed nightly.
- And a level of service offered is unmatched.
