Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines reveals new ‘South Africa Fly-Cruise’ adventure in January 2018

Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines has revealed more exciting ‘breaking news’, with the launch of its inaugural ‘South Africa Fly-Cruise’ on board Boudicca in Spring 2018, which existing guests can book from 19th May 2016, and which will go on general sale from 24th May 2016. This 14-night* itinerary will depart from London / Manchester airports on 10th January 2018, flying into Cape Town.

Nathan Philpot, Sales and Marketing Director for Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, said:

“This immersive itinerary has been created to give you the opportunity to visit a whole range of wonderful Game Reserves. For example, we arrive early and stay overnight in Port Elizabeth, Richards Bay and Durban, so you will have the best chance to see the ‘Big Five’, by taking a Game Drive at dawn and again at sundown – not forgetting the obligatory G&T, as you watch the sun descend across the African plains!

“The highlight for me is the beautiful, award-winning city of Cape Town: there is so much to do here that we are staying for three nights. Scale Table Mountain by cable car; discover the winelands of Stellenbosch or Constantia; take a stroll along Camps Bay; dine, shop and be entertained at the impressive Victoria & Alfred Waterfront complex; and visit what is perhaps the most beautiful cricket ground in the world, at Newlands. You might like to discover Cape Town on the back of a Harley Davidson; take a boat out whale- and dolphin-watching; or even go shark diving!”

Details of this exotic new Boudicca fly-cruise are as follows:

- 14-night* D1801 ‘South Africa Fly-Cruise’, ex London / Manchester on 10th January 2018, via Cape Town (*16 nights with flights) Prices start from just £2,699 per person, based on two adults sharing a twin-bedded, Interior Room, and include accommodation, all meals and entertainment on board, plus port / airport taxes, flights and transfers.

Ports of call: Cape Town ● Port Elizabeth (overnight stay) ● Richards Bay (overnight stay) ● Durban (overnight stay) ● Mossel Bay ● Cape Town (three-night stay)

For guests who book this exclusive new fly-cruise by 31st May 2016, Fred. Olsen will cover the cost of their gratuities, and offer a 50% discount on cruises departing between 7th October and 16th December 2016 (excludes ‘Party Nights’).

Guests can also choose to upgrade to Fred. Olsen’s great-value ‘all-inclusive’ drinks package for just £10 per person, per night.

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.
