Fred. Olsen’s experience will
make all the difference to yours.
With more than 200 ports of call to choose from, you can travel the whole world with
Fred, from the impossibly beautiful Norwegian Fjords to the inspirational monuments
of South America – and almost everywhere in between. But the advantages of cruising
with Fred. Olsen don’t stop there. A fleet of smaller ships means they can navigate waterways out of reach to the leviathan ‘resorts at sea’, and take you closer to enchanting cities,
including Gothic Bremen, resplendent Bordeaux and seductive Seville, where you’ll glide
along the Guadalquivir river right into the heart of the action. After all, your holiday is all
about discovering the best of each destination, ticking wonderful experiences off your
‘must-do’ list.
Fred. Olsen’s business is to make your cruise a
truly pleasurable experience, the chances are
you’ll make lasting – and genuine – friendships
with other passengers and also cruise members,
whose charm and friendliness is legendary in
the world of cruising. It’s completely effortless
and all part of the Fred. Olsen difference, as is
the reassuringly human scale of their ships,
which are spacious, comfortable and far more
relaxed than the huge impersonal floating
resorts operated by some cruise lines. There’s a
practical benefit to this as well, since the smaller
ships can take you to the heart of some of the
world’s most fascinating destinations, like St
Petersburg.
Fred. Olsen Cruise Line is a family managed
business, and you’ll see the benefits of this every
day you are on board. It’s a matter of pride for
the family to make your cruise utterly
memorable, to make you want to come back
again and again. In an age when people
sometimes feel they are treated as just numbers
on the mega-liners, you will find that because of
the intimacy of the Fred. Olsen ships, you are
treated as a person.
It’s attention to detail that makes
all the difference. For example, all ships in the
fleet have paintings and other works of art from
the personal “collection of the Olsen family, who
have the largest private collection in Norway. It’s
this personal touch that makes their vessels –
and your cruise – just a bit more special. It’s all
part of the service, all part of what makes a
cruise on one of Fred. Olsen’s ships a unique
experience.
Welcome aboard – to a world of
difference.
