Prepare for Azamara Cruise
Congratulation on booking your trip! This page has important steps on how to prepare for your Azamara Cruise vacation. Below you can find a Azamara Cruise travel checklist to make sure you are fully ready for your trip. We've also included a packing list for what to bring on your cruise. There are links below with more destination guides and packing lists as well. If you have any questions and booked your trip with us, please book a consultation or send us an email.
1) Obtain Passports and Visas
Passport books may be required for your sailing and are recommended even if they are not required. If your cruise starts from an international destination and you will be flying to that destination, then you will need a passport book for your trip. If your cruise starts and ends in different ports, passport books are required for your trip. Cruises that visit South America require a passport book. Some complicated family situations require that minors have passport books as well. Passport books are required to fly internationally which may arise during a medical emergency.

2) Book Flights, Hotel, and Transfers
Flights, hotel stays, and transfers may be needed for your cruise. Azamara Cruises offers pre-cruise land programs and post-cruise land programs if you are looking to extend your journey. Adventures by Amaris Travel Agency can assist with booking any needed components. Contact us when you are ready to book these components.
3) Book Shore Excursions
There are lots of things to explore in each port and shore excursions are your ticket to exploration. There are essentially two options: book these with Azamara Cruises or book with a third-party. Azamara offers wonderful excursions and these can be booked from the Azamara website. If you prefer a small group or private excursion, a third-party may work better for you. Contact Adventures by Amaris Travel Agency for curated private options.
4) Pack for White Night and AzAmazing Evenings
Azamara has two signature experiences on their sailings. White Night is an evening where nearly everyone wears nights and the top deck turns into a large party. Make sure to grab a table early because space is limited. AzAmazing Evenings is the other signature experience. This can vary from a special night on shore or a special experience onboard. Check your travel packet for details.
5) Purchase Upgrades
Manage your Azamara Cruise from the Azamara website. Here can you purchase upgraded experiences. The three packages offered are Experience More Essentials, Experience More Enjoyment, and Experience More Indulgence. These allow you to include options such as Unlimited Starlink Plus, upgraded beverage packages, shore excursion credits, specialty dining, laundry, and spa credits.
