Azamara Cruises unveiled its 2027 Overland Experiences collection, allowing deeper exploration of destinations that its ships sail to. 

The collection features 18 journeys across seven countries. 

With enhanced programming, expanded access to destinations and small-group experiences, it is designed to foster connections with the places guests visit, the cruise line said in a press release. 

“The Overland Experiences for 2027 invite our guests to venture beyond the port through extraordinary cultural encounters, historic discoveries, and awe-inspiring natural wonders,” said Shandra Stoeterau, director of land product development at Azamara Cruises.  

“From the temples in Angkor Wat to the iconic lagoons of Bora Bora, these immersive experiences go beyond the traditional port visits to allow deeper exploration into the heart of the countries. This emphasis on meaningful cultural connections and immersive exploration is what continues to distinguish the Azamara Cruises experience.”
