AZAMARA’S AZAMAZING EVENINGS!

Posted on by Kenneth Reece, Agent of Modern Travel Professionals

Azamara prides itself on its destination immersion, with longer stays in ports, night touring and at least one overnight on most sailings. Called “AzAmazing Evenings,” Azamara’s nighttime excursions take destination immersion one step further, giving cruisers exclusive access to attractions and performances that offer a glimpse into the local culture in a way they’d never get on their own.

Complimentary AzAmazing Evenings℠ events happen on almost all their voyages and are an exclusive glimpse into local culture.

Azamara’s AzAmazing Evenings are complimentary shore excursions offered once per cruise (except on transatlantic sailings or cruises less than five days long). Each AzAmazing Evening takes passengers to a unique location in one of the ports of call, where they are treated to a concert or performance of some type. Drinks and hors d’oeuvres are served where permitted (AzAmazing Evenings in churches, for example, usually do not include food and drink).

Unique to Azamara, AzAmazing Evenings℠ are exclusive, bespoke evening events designed to give guests an authentic taste of local culture and entertainment. One AzAmazing Evenings℠ event is included on nearly all voyages. They take guests to some fantastic places for entertainment!

Ask any past Azamara guest what the favorite part of his or her voyage was and you’ll often hear a similar answer: AzAmazing Evenings℠.

INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCES HAVE INCLUDED:

  • A night at the ballet in St. Petersburg
  • A traditional festival with magic tricks, dancing, and elephants in Myanmar
  • A concert by the Royal Gibraltar Regiment Band inside St. Michael’s Cave on the Rock of Gibraltar (a dramatic cavern filled with stalactites and stalagmites). An orchestra of twelve (including violin, viola, cello, and harp) proffers its haunting sounds into the acoustic shell of this great archeological wonder
  • A live Italian opera performed by three tenors at the lovely 19th-century Goldoni Theater in Livorno

In summary, AzAmazing Evenings:

  • Unique to Azamara, AzAmazing Evenings℠ are exclusive, bespoke evening events designed to give guests an authentic taste of local culture and entertainment
  • AzAmazing Evenings℠ are totally complimentary, and part of Destination Immersion®Program on Azamara ships

Hi! My name is Kenneth Reece, a native from Stockbridge, Georgia. I am a travel agent for Modern Travel Professionals. I opened Enchanted Gardens Florist & Gifts in 1986--when I was just 19. My love affair with Disney started in 1998 when I added Walt Disney collectibles to my merchandise displays. When I started to learn about the rich history of The Walt Disney Company, (which is required to successfully sell Walt Disney Animation Art) is when my store came alive. I've enjoyed hosting Disney Artists, Sculptors & Imagineers for in-store signing events, and was thrilled to tour the Walt Disney Studios in Burbank a few times as a guest of the company. One of my fondest Disney memories is that of holding one of Walt Disney's personal Academy Awards while visiting the Walt Disney Archives in Burbank, CA. As my love of Disney grew, I began planning trips to Disney for my clients at my store, which grew into a new career! After a few years of both running my retail store and planning travel, I closed my brick & mortar store, moved to Vero Beach, Fl where I've been planning travel full-time now for over five years. Vero Beach has small-town charm with world-class luxury. It's an incredible place to live. I help take care of my parents here, and travel extensively with them. Together, we visit Disneyland and The Walt Disney World Resort often. I've planned tours in England, Scotland, Paris, Greece, Italy, Denmark, Ireland, & France including Disneyland Paris. Living in Vero Beach, where retirees seem to outnumber all other age groups, I've become an expert on helping people travel who are "young at heart". Living a short road trip away from the Orlando area, I visit the theme parks at Walt Disney World, Universal Orlando & Sea World often. Many times I'm there once a week! I've stayed at every Disney Resort in North America, toured every hotel at the Universal Resort, and have taken over 25 cruises, being a Platinum Castaway Cay member with Disney Cruise Line. I've cruised to the Caribbean, The Bahamas, Alaska, the Panama Canal, Trans-Atlantic (East & Westbound), Mediterranean & Northern Europe. Also, if you need restaurant recommendations, I've personally ate at most of the restaurants at the Walt Disney World Resort & at the Disneyland Resort in Southern California. Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge is my favorite Walt Disney World Resort, and Disney's Grand Californian Resort & Spa is my favorite resort at Disneyland. I've attended various events at Walt Disney World such as: Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party, Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party, Star Wars Weekends, Disneyana Conventions, EPCOT's Food & Wine Festival, The Flower & Garden Festival and the new Festival of Arts. Contact me for personalized, concierge-level service. I'll help you as much (or as little) as you like, whatever your needs. I want to provide you with a worry free, incredible vacation, with memories that will last a life time.
