Solo cabin from $13,999

Ancient fjords, twinkling harbour towns, and a dazzling New Year’s Eve in Hobart – elevated by an all-inclusive Azamara voyage across New Zealand, Tasmania and Australia.

Begin your festive escape along New Zealand’s dramatic coastline, where cascading waterfalls tumble from towering peaks at Milford Sound. Spend Christmas Day drifting across the tranquil Tasman, the ship carrying you gently south towards Tasmania’s shores. As the year draws to a close, Hobart takes centre stage. Spend two days exploring this harbourside city before joining the celebrations as the waterfront comes alive at midnight, welcoming in the New Year among fellow travellers and new friends.

From here, Azamara Pursuit sails on toward Sydney, tracing Australia’s sun-drenched southern coastline before your voyage draws to a close. Disembark beneath the iconic Harbour Bridge, ready to make your own way home and reflect on a truly festive adventure.

Azamara Pursuit

The launch of Azamara Pursuit in 2018 opened the seas to new itineraries, and the opportunity to provide our guests with more unique and immersive experiences than ever before.

Your boutique hotel at sea, the Azamara Pursuit® is a mid-sized ship with a deck plan that’s intimate but never crowded, and offers everything modern voyagers are looking for—plus some unexpected extras.

Seven restaurants, cafes, and lounges, a refreshing pool, sun-drenched decks, a revitalising spa…the list goes on. With so many areas to explore onboard Azamara Pursuit, it’s a good thing we have deck plans.

One of the best ways to experience the jaw-dropping sights of the Fjords of Norway, and the mesmerising Mediterranean Sea coast lines is from your private veranda. It’s just one of the many benefits exclusive to your wonderfully spacious suite aboard Azamara Pursuit.

Escape to a private retreat of polished style, featuring contemporary décor, luxurious linens, plush cotton robes and slippers, French bath products, fresh flowers, turndown treats, and 24-hour room service. (Perhaps we should arrange for a wake-up call?)
