Agents making a booking on any of these Summer sailings can also enter Fred. Olsen’s free prize draw to win £500 Red Letter Day vouchers for their branch!

To support the travel trade in getting behind this campaign, Fred. Olsen's Sales team are visiting agents in the Southampton area during July, and are providing them with a variety of 'point of sale' materials to highlight the benefits of booking a Fred. Olsen Summer cruise. The campaign also features prominent TV and radio advertising, door drops and national and regional press promotions.

Fred. Olsen has a clear focus on ‘bringing the world closer to you’, taking guests from convenient, regional UK departure ports to hundreds of exciting destinations around the globe, aboard its fleet of four smaller, more intimate ships – Balmoral, Braemar, Boudiccaand Black Watch.

Fred. Olsen’s classically-styled, smaller-scale ships are able to access many ports around the world that larger cruise ships cannot: taking guests into the heart of iconic cities, river cruising through breathtaking landscapes, past soaring fjords, and to soft, sandy beaches, bathed in sunshine. During its 2016/17 cruise season, Fred. Olsen will be visiting 253 destinations in 84 countries – more than ever before!

The relatively small size of Fred. Olsen’s ships means that there is a relaxed and friendly atmosphere on board, where guests and crew quickly get to know each other; Fred. Olsen’s famous ‘service with a smile’, fantastic five-star cuisine and elegant, stylish ships all help to create a holiday to remember!

Fred. Olsen is pleased to have been awarded the ‘Gold Trusted Merchant’ status by independent review site Feefo in 2015, for the second year in a row. This accreditation is based on genuine customer feedback and, to date, Fred. Olsen has received over 11,000 reviews, with 95% of these being in the ‘Good’ or ‘Excellent’ categories.

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.
