'Extend your Fred. Olsen ‘Exotic Fly-Cruise’ in 2017 and explore more of the world!'

Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines is offering guests the chance to make even more of their ‘Exotic Fly-Cruise’ in 2017 with a ‘Holiday Extension’ – of two, four or five nights’ duration, pre- or post-cruise (based on a minimum of 20 participants per option) – taking in some of the world’s most spectacular natural and man-made attractions, including the mighty Iguazu Falls, from Buenos Aires, Argentina, and Machu Picchu, via Lima, Peru.

As an added bonus, guests booking a Fred. Olsen ‘Exotic Fly-Cruise’ by 31^st August 2016 inclusive can benefit from a range of tempting offers, such as a free flight and transfer to / from the ship, or a free / discounted holiday extension, either before or after the cruise, where applicable (offers are non-combinable and subject to availability).

Neil Herbert, Head of Sales at Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, said:

“By splitting some of our ‘Grand Voyages’ in 2017, we have created a host of ‘Exotic Fly-Cruises’ that take in some of the finest destinations around the world; what’s more, we are offering guests the chance to start these very special holidays early, or extend them, with a choice of great-value escorted and independent holiday extensions – some of which are even free!

“These extended breaks allow guests to immerse themselves fully in a destination – getting to know and experience its traditions, cultures, cuisine and people – safe in the knowledge that Fred. Olsen has taken care of all the organisation and arrangements.”
