Azamara Onward

Skip the lines at ancient Ephesus and walk its marble streets to the Library of Celsus and the Great Theatre with a guide, timed around your ship's schedule.

Relax the traditional Turkish way with a steam, body scrub, foam wash and massage at a local hamam in Kusadasi, an easy 90-minute break close to the port.

Spend the day on the water along the coast of Dilek National Park, with swim stops in quiet bays and lunch served on board.

Standard tours of Corfu run at a pace suited to those staying on the island, but if you’re passing through on a cruise ship, time is of the essence.

A private driver-guide shows you Corfu your way, typically the UNESCO-listed Old Town, the Paleokastritsa coastline and hilltop villages, on a half or full day.

Taste Corfu's Venetian-influenced food on a three-hour walk through the Old Town, with local snacks, sweets and drinks along with the history behind them.
