The Azamara Journey made her Australian debut yesterday, arriving in Darwin, her very first Australian port of call.

Azamara Club Cruises’ second ship is fresh from an extensive multi-million dollar makeover.

“We are very excited to be welcoming Azamara Journey to Australia for the first time. She is a completely new ship compared to her sister Azamara Quest who made her debut last summer, after a $25 million make over in April,” said Adam Armstrong, managing director, Azamara Club Cruises Australia & NZ.

The 690-guest ship departed Darwin at 9pm on Feb. 7, continuing her 18-night Singapore to Sydney sailing. She’ll call at Thursday Island, Port Douglas, Cairns and Townsville before arriving in Sydney for the first time on Sunday Feb. 19.
