WILMINGTON, N.C. (Jan. 5, 2011) – PerryGolf has joined Azamara Club Cruises to offer a premium level of escorted and all-inclusive golf tours and cruise programs that feature some of the world’s premier golf courses and destinations.
Known as Azamara Club Golf Cruises, the new program offers a range of itineraries delivered in a style that combines the superior golf experience that PerryGolf has refined since 1984 with Azamara’s reputation as the leading destination-immersive cruise line for up-market travelers.
“PerryGolf and Azamara share a longstanding commitment to a form of lifestyle travel that our guests long remember,” said Gordon Dalgleish, president of PerryGolf. “We believe our combined expertise and resources will ensure remarkable experiences at spectacular golf destinations.”
All golf programs begin with a one- or two-night pre-voyage golf land stay, which includes five-star hotel accommodations, welcome cocktail reception and dinner. During their voyage, guests will play at some of the world’s leading courses, including Old Head and Portmarnock in Ireland; Oitavos Dunes in Portugal; Montgomerie Links in Vietnam; Mission Hills in China; Four Seasons Provence in France; and Sperone in Corsica. Guests on Azamara Club Golf Cruises are fully escorted by a PerryGolf tour manager.
Azamara’s 694-guest ships, Azamara Journey and Azamara Quest, feature a combination of 347 suites and staterooms. The ships offer a European boutique hotel ambience with extraordinary service, fine cuisine and wines, wellness and vitality programs.
“Our partnership is a connection of excellence with PerryGolf, reflecting our dedication to deliver unique and immersive travel experiences to our guests with some of the best brands in their fields,” said Larry Pimentel, president and CEO of Azamara Club Cruises. “Azamara Club Golf Cruises offers a new and elevated dimension for guests to enjoy the extraordinary service playing on some of the world’s most renowned golfing destinations aboard a distinctive Azamara voyage.”
Azamara Club Golf Cruises are available immediately through travel agents and Azamara directly, starting at $2,682 per person. Non-golfing companion rates start at $669 per person with single supplements from $263 per person.
