itineraries feature more than 30 such calls. Azamara president Carol


Cabezas said: “Over the past few years, we’ve seen more of our guests opting for longer itineraries and back-to-back sailings. “In response to this increasing


demand for prolonged travel, we’ve created Grand Voyages to encourage our guests to travel further and delve even deeper into the rich tapestry of cultures, cuisines and traditions that make up our world. “Our ships will be their home


away from home as they travel from South Africa to Portugal, or from Japan to Greece, creating meaningful memories.” azamara.com/grand-voyages
