Azamara Cruises has unveiled its 2026 summer sailings, featuring 77 new itineraries to captivating destinations.
Azamara Journey, Azamara Quest and Azamara Onward will all spend the summer season in Europe, spanning the Mediterranean and Northern Europe, including extended time in Greece, Ireland, the British Isles and more.
Standouts amongst the new itineraries include three solar eclipse cruises taking place in August 2026, offering guests a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to view the spectacular natural phenomenon from sea.
Michael Pawlus, Head of Itinerary Planning at Azamara Cruises said:
“At Azamara Cruises, we’re always striving to deliver new and incredible experiences for our guests.
“The rare opportunity to include solar eclipse sailings in 2026 is very exciting and we are thrilled to deliver such a unique offering.”
Azamara Cruises will also add five maiden ports to the European line-up in 2026 – which are only accessible to smaller ships – and debut new pre- and post-land programmes.
These sailings will continue to offer more late nights and overnights than any other cruise line, said Azamara in a statement.
“Europe continues to be a leading destination for us globally, so we are delighted to be announcing one of our biggest European deployments to date,” continued Pawlus.
“With three ships in the region from March to October 2026, we can offer our guests more options than ever before; taking them to ports less travelled and hidden gem destinations and delivering new immersive land experiences for the very first time.”
