Guests can choose to use this free On Board Spend to immerse themselves fully in the destinations with award-winning shore excursions; enhance their onboard experience further by purchasing food and drink; or enjoy Boudicca’s many onboard facilities throughout the duration of this exceptional cruise.

Meanwhile, those looking to enjoy an exotic holiday within a shorter duration can take advantage of a ‘FREE Drinks & Tips’ upgrade on a number of exciting fly-cruises in 2019/20, as part of Fred. Olsen’s popular ‘Cruise Sale’, when booking by 28^th February 2019 inclusive.

In its ‘FREE Drinks and Tips’ offer, Fred. Olsen guests can enjoy selected house wines, beers, spirits and soft drinks all day and evening, without the added hassle of settling a bar bill, plus all gratuities will be paid by the cruise line.

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

“Boudicca’s ‘Grand Voyage’ – of an epic 168 nights – is set to be the longest, most extensive sailing ever undertaken in Fred. Olsen’s history! Guests will get the chance to visit no fewer than 61 different ports, towns and cities right across the globe, taking in far-flung destinations rich in culture and steeped in history.

“We wanted to make our guests’ holidays even more special by doubling the amount of free spending credit available on our ground-breaking ‘Grand Voyage’, enabling them to make the most of their time on board with immersive shore excursions, a spa treatment or two, or a sumptuous meal in our speciality steak and seafood restaurant, The Grill – all compliments of Fred. Olsen!

“Of course, we appreciate that not everyone is able to sail away for an entire 168 nights, so we hope that those looking to take a shorter, but equally exotic, Fred. Olsen fly-cruise will enjoy our ‘FREE Drinks & Tips’ upgrade, all the while making memories to last a lifetime!”
