Christmas in July

It might not be beginning to look a lot like Christmas, but with the year halfway over, it certainly is the time to start thinking about how you plan to spend the holiday season.

Catching Up With Amanda Poulson

Amanda Poulson has come full circle. In 2012, her Azamara journey began as a Featured Singer aboard The Quest. In 2019, she returned to The Quest as the fill-in Cruise Director. And now, in 2021, we’re happy to announce that she will be taking on the role of permanent Cruise Director aboard The Quest — a position Amanda describes as feeling a bit like coming home.

A Conversation with Tanya Roberts

In 2021, Azamara is embracing the new. After all, we have a new ship, the Azamara Onward, we’re kicking off new experiences like Destination Celebration, and we have a new appreciation for the world around us. And it doesn’t stop there. 2021 is also bringing about new opportunities for the Azamara family — including Tanya Roberts, who we’re excited to announce will be taking on the role of Cruise Director Associate aboard the Azamara Pursuit this October! Tanya, an award-winning lyric soprano and entertainer, has performed more than 75 roles worldwide — from contemporary musical theatre to Baroque opera! Recently, we spoke with her about performing, how the last year brought about new challenges (and opportunities!), and what she’s looking forward to most about once again exploring the world with Azamara. Here are some highlights of that conversation.

Catching Up With Tony Markey

If you've spent any time on an Azamara Ship over the years, you're probably familiar with Tony Markey. Azamara's long-standing Cruise Director, Tony has been entertaining guests worldwide and managing an ever-expanding cast of performers for more than 12 years. But Tony's never been one to stay still for too long. In fact, his mother always said he was born with itchy feet! That's why we're excited — and not at all surprised — to announce that Tony has accepted new roles as Food & Beverage Manager and Relief Hotel Director on the Azamara Journey. Tony's a natural leader, and we're looking forward to watching him flourish in these positions.

Catching Up With Heike Berdos in Scotland

Have you taken a moment to wonder where the Azamara Pursuit, Azamara Journey, and Azamara Quest have been docked over the last year? The answer may surprise you! Since June of 2020, the Three Sisters have called King George V Dock in Glasgow, Scotland home. Located along the River Clyde, these are uncharted waters for our ships! Typically, when we cruise to Glasgow, we dock our ships elsewhere — but this is no ordinary visit.
