The Azamara Quest is a modern, smaller boutique ship that is able to dock in ports that large cruise ships struggle to visit. Premium in every sense, Azamara Quest has been designed with refined elegance in mind, from the finest marble, wood, leather and fabrics to the specially crafted furniture and original works of art. Six dining venues let you enjoy a wide range of gourmet meals, which include standard wines and beers. Azamara Quest provides a truly luxurious cruise experience for enjoying the Mediterranean and the Monaco Grand Prix.
In keeping with our friendly yet sophisticated on-board environment, we encourage guests to follow a resort casual dress code. Out of respect for others, bare feet, tank tops, baseball caps, bathing suits, shorts and jeans are not allowed in the dining room or specialty restaurants. When dining at Windows Café, guests must wear footwear and a cover-up or shirt. Formal evening wear is not expected or required in our restaurants. If you prefer to dress more formally, you are welcome to do so.
The Travelrite escorted Azamara Journey cruise represents amazing value. There are no costly extras; everything is included in the one great price.
