Azamara Journey Arrives in Freo

Here is Azamara Journey cruise ship arriving in Fremantle this morning at 8.30 am.

Her arrival in Fremantle concludes a 9-day, one-way cruise from Singapore to Fremantle for most of the ‘guests’. Some 369 passengers will disembark the ship tomorrow, and some 631 new passengers will embark on a new 14-day cruise to Sydney and Melbourne.

Only 67 guests are ‘transit’ passengers – and so continuing on with the cruise that commenced in Singapore.

Azamara Journey is best described as a luxurious boutique hotel at sea. She is a mid-sized ship with a deck plan that’s intimate but never crowded. On board are seven restaurants, cafes, lounges and a spa.

So you can expect some 369 passengers plus 67 transit passengers will be leaving the ship today. 60 passengers are on pre-booked tours, so expect up to 376 passengers and up to 390 crew, to be out and about exploring Fremantle for the day!

Here’s a gallery with more pics of Amazara Journey’s arrival in Freo this morning.

The City of Fremantle is running a free shuttle bus from the Fremantle Passenger Terminal into Walyalup Koort from 09:30 – 15:30 today.

Azamara Journey leaves Fremantle again, tomorrow Thursday at 6pm bound for Busselton, Albany, Adelaide, Kangaroo Island, Eden, Sydney for New Year, and ending in Melbourne on 4 January 2024.

Passengers no doubt will enjoy festive top-tier dining, world class entertainment and relaxing spa experiences away from the maddening crowds.
