The small-ship cruise line will return to the Alaskan shores in the summer of 2026 following a seven-year hiatus
Azamara Pursuit will embark on a series of 10- to 13-day cruises from May 2026, offering curated itineraries in remote destinations with cultural encounters with indigenous communities and wildlife excursions to spot whales and bears.
Highlights of the Alaskan cruises include extended stays in ports, access to remote locations such as Kodiak and Dutch Harbour, 27 late-night departures and the cruise line’s iconic AzAmazing Evening in Ketchikan featuring a cocktail hour with Alaskan home brews and local activities such as axe throwing. The night will end with the Great Alaskan Lumberjack Show.
UK managing director, David Duff, said, “It is clear from our conversations with agents and customers that Alaska remains a bucket-list destination for many UK travellers, so we are delighted to be announcing our return in summer 2026.
“These enhanced itineraries and land experiences will take our guests to less-visited ports and hidden gem destinations, giving them to opportunity to truly connect with the communities and cultures of this fascinating region.”
