Azamara has added two brand-new Canada voyages to its 2025 itineraries, bringing the boutique cruise line back to Canada for the first time since 2017. The luxe small-ship line will also introduce special two-night stays in select European ports in 2025.

The new Canada sailings will stop in six ports, including maiden ports Cap-aux-Meules and Harve Saint Pierre in Quebec and L’Anse Aux Meadows in Newfoundland.

Azamara’s Head of Itinerary Planning Michael Pawlus said the cruise line is thrilled to return to Canada in 2025.

“We’re excited for our guests to experience these unique itineraries visiting lesser-travelled ports in Quebec and Newfoundland as well as Iceland and Greenland.”

Azamara will also debut double-night stays in Europe, allowing guests three days and two overnights in ports such as Bordeaux, France or Seville, Spain to explore the destination at their leisure.

Azamara’s signature Country Intensive sailings continue to see high demand, making up more than half of the 73 newly released 2025 itineraries. These specialty voyages encourage guests to dive deeper into countries such as Italy, Spain, France, Norway, Ireland and Scotland.

“As demand for our Country Intensive sailings remains strong, we’ve also added a range of these specialty voyages across Europe for 2025, so our guests can discover smaller ports and hidden gems within a single country,” Mr Pawlus said.

“Azamara is known for offering more time in port with late nights and overnights and now we are taking that even further with our new double-night stays, allowing our guests plenty of time to travel further and dive deeper into each destination,” added President of Azamara Carol Cabezas.
