Grand Voyages

Yes, you can add additional sailings before as Back-to-Back options, however the sailings before or after the Grand Voyage will not receive the additional Grand Voyage amenities.  Please note, you may not be guaranteed the same cabin on the sailings before or after as you have on the Grand Voyage, but we will make every effort to secure the same cabin if possible.

The minimum drinking age for all alcoholic beverages on Azamara ships sailing from North America is 21.

In certain circumstances where local laws permit or require, Azamara may modify this policy which may also require parent/guardian request/authorization.  Please note that an individual's age on the date of sailing determines his or her status for the entire voyage vacation. No guest under age 18 may possess or consume alcohol at any time while onboard. Any guest who goes ashore and consumes alcohol (whether under the supervision of a parent/guardian or not), is responsible for ensuring they consume responsibly and retain their ability to recognize and avoid potentially dangerous situations when they return to the ship. Parents/guardians are reminded they are responsible for the actions of their child/young adult at all times while on an Azamara cruise vacation. 

If a guest celebrates their birthday during the cruise vacation, and thereby becomes of age to consume alcohol, the guest may thereafter ask the Guest Relations Manager to modify ship’s records to permit their consumption of alcohol during the remainder of the vacation. The guest will be required to appear at Guest Relations to present a valid government-issued form of identification to permit verification of their age.
