Fred. Olsen offers free all-inclusive drinks upgrade on 15 alluring Norwegian fjords cruises in 2019

Holidaymakers looking to set sail to the scenic Norwegian fjords in 2019 can enjoy a free all-inclusive drinks upgrade on 15 selected itineraries with Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines next year, when booked by 31st October 2018 inclusive.

Fred. Olsen's free all-inclusive drinks upgrade offer is available on board all four of its ocean ships - Balmoral, Braemar, Boudicca and Black Watch - on selected Norwegian fjords sailings between April and August 2019. Durations range from five to nine nights, departing from all five of Fred. Olsen's convenient UK ports - Southampton, Dover, Liverpool, Newcastle and Edinburgh (Rosyth).

Clare Ward, Director of Product and Customer Service at Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, said:

“Norway is where our four more intimately-sized ocean ships really come into their own, as their smaller stature allows them to navigate right into the depths of the stunning fjords where many of the larger lines simply cannot reach.

"This tempting new offer means that guests can sail alongside the sheer cliffs, towering mountains, mighty waterfalls and rolling valleys of the Norwegian fjords next year without the worry of a bar bill to settle at the end of their holiday."


Fred. Olsen has included the following phenomenal Norwegian fjords itineraries in 2019 in this offer:

Braemar’s eight-night M1912 ‘Norwegian Fjords & Cities’ cruise, ex Southampton on 18th May 2019. Prices start from £999 per person.

Uncover the quaint delights of sleepy towns, world-famous attractions and some of the world’s most breathtakingly beautiful waterways on this eight-night sailing. Get closer to the stunning Kristiansand, with its elegant old town and perfectly-preserved Christiansholm Fortress; Oslo, home to must-visit attractions such as the National Gallery and the iconic Opera House; and enchanting Arendal, where the historic Tyholmen awaits. A visit to picturesque Eidfjord, gateway to Hardangervidda National Park, is sandwiched between unforgettable scenic cruising through the Karmsund Strait; by Maurangerfjord’s cascading Fureberg Waterfall; and along Hardangerfjord and Lysefjord, flanked by dramatic mountains and cliffs.

Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines

At Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines we are very proud of our smaller ships – Bolette, Borealis and Balmoral - and the imaginative and unusual itineraries they allow us to offer. Every cruise is hand-crafted from scratch by our team of in-house Journey Planners to make sure you are not only visiting the best destinations, but at the best time to experience them.

For us, it’s not just about where we go but how we take you there. We put as much time into planning scenic cruising as we do in choosing the destinations themselves. On board, our Signature Experiences showcase the history, culture, nature and flavours of the destinations you’ll visit – from Treats of the Region, where you can enjoy local delicacies, to our Sky at Sea star-gazing sessions where you can relax with a hot toddy out on deck while our astronomer talks you through the night sky.

Plus, with each ship carrying 1,300 guests or less, our ships are small enough for us to offer a warm, friendly and personal service where nothing is ever too much trouble, as we visit a host of exciting ports in every corner of the globe.
