AZAMARA has unveiled its winter cruises for 2026-27, which will see the line sail its first-ever European winter season, and return to China.
The cruise line has introduced 66 new sailings, as well as eight Grand Voyages, spanning more than 35 nights.
These Grand Voyages will visit a variety of continents and destinations, including Canada to Australia, Australia to Japan, Canada to Japan, Buenos Aires to Miami, and more.
Azamara is also meeting the growing demand for Europe by offering guests the opportunity to explore the continent during its winter months.
One of the highlights of the European winter season will see Azamara sail up the Guadalquivir to Seville, which can only be accessed by small ships, where she will dock in the city centre for a two-night stay.
Winter cruises will allow easier admittance to museums, landmarks, and local markets, avoiding the summer crowds, and providing guests with more intimate access to landmarks and cultural experiences.
Azamara cruisers will also experience the culture and history of China as the cruise line sails into the heart of Shanghai.
Passengers will also be able to visit the Great Wall of China, enjoy dim sum, and more.
“We are thrilled to announce our winter 2026-2027 cruises, which mark an exciting chapter in Azamara’s commitment to bringing our guests to the world,” Head of Itinerary Planning Michael Pawlus said.
“For the first time ever, we are pleased to offer cruises to Europe during the wintertime so guests can delight in beloved destinations without peak-season crowds and during cooler weather,” he added.
“Additionally, we are thrilled to return to China with its rich culture and history…these sailings offer an unparalleled opportunity to explore the world in a more meaningful way.” MS
