​Choose from a trio of Caribbean cruises with Fred. Olsen in Autumn and Winter 2017

Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines is offering guests a trio of Caribbean cruises in Autumn and Winter 2017, aboard its popular Braemar and Balmoral ships. Guests can choose from a 32-night ‘Caribbean Discovery’ sailing in October, or a 16-night ‘Voyage to the Caribbean’ fly-cruise and 14-night ‘Caribbean Christmas & New Year’ fly-cruise in December.

Justin Stanton, Sales and Marketing Director for Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, said:

“Our trio of great-value Caribbean cruises means that guests can escape the chilly British weather and enjoy the beauty and laid-back atmosphere of these sensational sunshine islands, aboard Fred. Olsen’s smaller, more intimate ships.

“Just imagine leaving the UK behind this Winter and embarking on an island-hopping adventure, going in search of sea turtles in Barbados, or just relaxing on the beach and soaking up the tropical climate over Christmas and New Year. Our cruises will give you amazing experiences and unforgettable memories to last a lifetime!”

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.
