Azamara Quest overview
Azamara Quest provides authentic service, destination-inspired programs, and an intimate, boutique hotel atmosphere. Azamara's signature AzAmazing Evening events deliver exclusive and immersive onshore experiences, while onboard, Quest offers cabaret-style entertainment that includes three unique musical shows. A Million Dreams pays tribute to classic love songs, featuring music by Whitney Houston, Adele, Bruno Mars, and Elvis. The Night Spot highlights gathering places around the globe, including a Las Vegas lounge and a swanky cigar bar, with music by favorites such as Cher, Frank Sinatra, The Beatles, and Billy Joel. The trio of performances is rounded out by His Song — The Music of Elton John. The ship's Cabaret Lounge also transforms into 54 Below at Sea for a special Broadway experience.
This beloved R-class cruise ship, which originally sailed for Renaissance Cruises, also offers plenty of opportunities for learning and enrichment, including line-dancing classes, expert talks on a multitude of regional topics, and port-of-call lectures that offer travelers insights into the destinations they're visiting. The ship also features the luxurious Sanctum Spa, which has a fitness center, thalassotherapy pool, and dedicated space for acupuncture treatments. In addition to its outdoor pool area, which includes two whirlpools, an open-air bar, and tennis tables, Quest also has a jogging and power-walking track, and an on-deck game area.
Azamara Quest was refurbished in 2019 and now boasts an updated gift shop, six additional oceanview cabins, and The Den, a sophisticated lounge with comfortable seating, live music, and a concierge desk where destination experts help cruisers optimize their time onshore.
Azamara Quest itineraries and departure ports
From 3-night weekend getaways to epic 24-night itineraries, Azamara Quest offers a variety of country-intensive voyages designed to let travelers immerse themselves in the culture and spirit of their destination. Quest departs from ports worldwide and sails to a multitude of exciting global locales, including Africa, Asia, South America, Europe, and the Caribbean.
This ship is best for: Like the other ships in Azamara's fleet, Quest's small size gives it access to ports that larger ships can't reach, making it the ideal ship for travelers seeking unique itineraries with bucket-list destinations. Many of the vessel's onboard activities are designed to complement ports of call for a truly immersive experience.
You should know: Azamara Quest was designed with mature travelers in mind. With no dedicated children's program and few activities to attract the under-18 crowd, this ship won't appeal to families or multigenerational groups that include young children.
