Sail along German rivers and waterways from Belfast with Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines this Summer

Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines is offering guests in Northern Ireland and Ireland the chance to take a 12-night ‘German Canals, Rivers & Cities’ cruise from Belfast for the first-time ever, setting sail on 1^st August 2016, fromjust £67 per person, per night!

This great-value sailing is possible due to Boudicca’s smaller, more intimate size – allowing her to glide along German canals, waterways and rivers, whilst calling at fascinating and picturesque cities along the way.

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

“The popularity of our Belfast sailings has grown and grown. Now in our fourth cruise season from this convenient port, we wanted to offer our loyal customers and ‘new-to-cruise’ guests in Northern Ireland and Ireland something extra-special this year – the opportunity to experience one of our most popular river cruise itineraries and get to see Germany in a very different way. And, without the need to travel far to meet your ship, there is so much included in the cost of a Fred. Olsen holiday!”

The details of this new Fred. Olsen ex-Belfast cruise are as follows:
