Fred Olsen winter sale

With their fleet of four ships, Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines is a company that believes ‘small is beautiful’. They are also justly proud of their Norwegian heritage and appreciate passengers want a wider choice of cruising options than is the norm in today’s world of long flights and short sailings. The cruise line has just launched a Cruise Sale on over 100 cruises from their 2018-19 programme for bookings made before 1^st March. There’s a free upgrade to ‘All Inclusive’ offer which includes selected house wines by the glass, selected beers, spirits and soft drinks all day and evening in all bars and restaurants. Alternatively you can opt for free shore tours up to the value of £200 per person in your destination of choice.

The Cruise Sale features departures from ports and airports around the UK. For example you could escape to the sun-kissed Mediterranean, the balmy Caribbean or the Canaries; enjoy an exotic fly-cruise holiday in the Indian Ocean or Arabia; sail deep into Norwegian fjords or explore the remote regions of the Arctic and Iceland on the ultimate adventure.

Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines’ 1,350-guest flagship – Balmoral - will be sailing from Edinburgh (Rosyth) in 2018, operating a total of nine sailings from May to July. Cruises include a five-night ‘Norwegian Fjords’ departure; a 14-night ‘Scandinavia & St Petersburg’ Baltic discovery; and a nine-night ‘German Waterways’ experience.

For the first time, Fred. Olsen is operating river cruises this year aboard the recently acquired 360 foot-long Brabant. This stylish and comfortable 156-passenger river cruise ship has just four decks, fewer than 80 cabins and suites, and oozes the intimate and friendly feel that Fred. Olsen’s guests appreciate. With Fred. Olsen’s bumper ‘Cruise Sale’, guests booking one of the 27 featured river cruises aboard Brabant can opt for a free Dining Drinks Upgrade – with a choice of house wines, beers or branded soft drinks with their lunchtime and evening meals – or free shore tour credit of up to £100 per person. Included in this offer are ‘Delights of Holland in Bloom’; ‘Romantic Rhine & Moselle Marvels’; and ‘Cities of the Beautiful Danube’ sailings.

Unashamedly British, the entertainment takes its cue from the West End rather than Broadway; the currency is the familiar pound as opposed to the mighty dollar; and announcements are made in English eschewing a babble of foreign tongues. When it comes to that most sublime cruise pastime of dining, the British palate takes precedence. To take advantage of these great offers speak to our experienced team on 0808 256 6742.
