‘I saw three ships come sailing in’ – to Copenhagen!

The lovely port of Copenhagen welcomes many cruise ships during the summer months, and it is a favourite port for Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, on many of their Baltic and Scandinavian itineraries.

This year, for the first time ever, no fewer than three of the Fred. Olsen fleet will all be docking in the port, on the same day – Wednesday 12th June.

The three ships are all approaching from different regional departure ports around the UK; Black Watch is operating an ‘Undiscovered Lapland & St. Petersburg’ cruise of 17 nights from Harwich, Braemar has a ‘Scandinavia & St. Petersburg’ cruise of 12 nights from Dover and Boudicca is on a ‘Scandinavian Capitals  & St. Petersburg’ itinerary from Greenock (Glasgow). 

Each ship is due to spend a full day in Copenhagen, allowing guests to explore this beautiful city and visit the magical Tivoli Gardens,  the colourful Nyhavn waterfront, with its gabled houses and outdoor restaurants, or Stroeget, a wonderful, pedestrianised shopping district.  Another highlight is the charming statue of Hans Christian Andersen’s ‘Little Mermaid.’

Nathan Philpot, Sales and Marketing Director of Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, said: ‘Copenhagen is a great favourite with many of our guests, with its many attractions, and we always receive a warm and friendly welcome.  Wednesday 12th June 2013 will be a very special day for us, with three of our fleet all docking there together, and we know all our guests will have a wonderful day ashore in this very special city.’

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.
