Azamara Journey Docked in Kotor , Montenegro
Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell said it best when they sang , “ Ain ’ t Nothing Like the Real Thing .” The lack of global travel has deprived us of authentic experiences that make vacations unforgettable . At the top of that list is feasting on authentic flavors . Takeout from our favorite international restaurants is delightful , but it ’ s not the “ real thing .” Deep down inside you want to taste curries in India , tapas in Spain , empanadas in Argentina , salmon in Alaska , dim sum in Hong Kong , wine in France and tequila in Mexico .
It ’ s time to reclaim those lost experiences and celebrate a world of gastronomic delights on a cruise from our Culinary Collection . These special cruise vacations feature demonstrations from worldrenowned chefs , complimentary wine , cooking classes , wine and spirit tastings , and delightful meals focused on regional cuisine — making you feel like the ultimate culinary connoisseur .
For details on the culinary experiences you can enjoy , visit the individual cruise line pages starting on page 54 . And for a list of every upcoming voyage in our Culinary Collection , please turn to page 70 .
And some of these departures are in our agency ’ s Distinctive Voyage program , where you will receive additional amenities at no extra charge . These indulgences may include the services of a Distinctive Voyages Host , a Private Welcome Reception and an Exclusive Amenity . We also include other departures that include an extra perk such as shipboard credit or pre-paid gratuities — but only when you book through our agency .
