South Africa Cruise with Azamara Onward

The smaller, more personal ships are designed for approximately 700 guests and offer excellent service in the style of a premium boutique hotel. Due to the ships’ small size they can sail smaller ports, away from the usual routes in more than 60 countries around the world. Longer stays in the ports allow guests to get to know the visited countries, cultures and people more intensively. Especially experienced cruise guests feel addressed by these cruise ships. The board language is English.
