Special Attractions on Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines - Flagship Golf and The ArtsClub

A selection of Fred. Olsen’s cruises to worldwide destinations features one or both of its programmes of special interest activities.

Flagship Golf

This package is a very popular optional extra, available on selected cruises in the Mediterranean, Canaries, Baltic, Around the UK, and the Caribbean. The package - priced at the competitive rate of £375 per player (£425 on Caribbean fly-cruises) - consists of four rounds of golf ashore played on carefully-selected courses, including transfers and green fees, tuition from the on board resident PGA professional, practice sessions and social activity on board for golfers and their non-playing partners. The Flagship Golf package must be booked prior to the cruise departure.

The ArtsClub

This is an informal programme covering a vast array of hobbies and pastimes. There is no charge and ArtsClub topics do not have to be pre-booked, guests just join in as and when they choose. Experts in the specific subject will give talks, tuition or workshops throughout the cruise, and may accompany shore tours where relevant.

Subjects include music, dance, musical theatre, comedy, watercolour painting, antique collecting, wine tasting, maritime history, genealogy, wildlife, photography and much more. New for 2011/12 are three intriguing topics – Chocoholics, History of Weather and History of the British Royal Family. Although there is no charge for taking part, there may be a small charge for materials in subjects such as painting or wine tasting. ArtsClub themes are featured on selected cruises aboard all Fred. Olsen ships.

As well as these specific packages, many cruises offer guest speakers from all walks of life, or feature big names from the world of entertainment. There is a packed programme of activities throughout the day, which is organised by the ship’s own social team, and a glittering programme of evening entertainment. This goes to ensure that every Fred. Olsen cruise, whether or not it is part of a specific programme, will be a fulfilling and well-rounded experience.
