Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines helps guests to ‘make it a year to remember’ with savings of up to £500 per person unveiled
Launched today (Wednesday, 3rd May), and running to 14th June inclusive, cruises included in the savings offer chances to seek out Lapland’s summertime wildlife, venture into the Arctic to witness the Midnight Sun, and to sail many size-restricted waterways including along Norway’s narrow Trollfjord and the Hudson River and Cape Cod Canal in America.
More than 50 cruises are included from May to December 2023, with departures available from Liverpool, Newcastle, Rosyth, Southampton and Dover, and ranging from two to 93-nights. Sailings start from £599 per person.
Jackie Martin, Sales and Marketing Director at Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, said:
“We know that the arrival of warmer, brighter days has many of us dreaming of our next adventure, and so we are giving travellers the chance to experience the world for less in 2023.
“There are more than 50 cruises to choose from, and each itinerary has been hand-crafted purposefully by our specialist Journey Planners, to show you the best cultural and natural highlights in each destination – whether that be the chance to sail between the blue icebergs of Qaqortoq in Greenland, to witness the spectacular autumnal beauty of Canada in the ‘Fall’ or to learn more about the history surrounding Vesuvius, Pompeii and the Balkan regions in a cruise to many fascinating Italian regions.
“And the adventures aren’t limited to time guests spend ashore. Every cruise will feature our new Signature Experiences to celebrate the destinations you’ll be visiting, from hosted wildlife-spotting opportunities out on deck to chances to sampling the authentic flavours of the regions in cookery demonstrations, tastings and our menus on board.
“Whichever cruise you choose, you can rest assured it has been designed to showcase the very best of the destinations you’ll visit with us, and we can’t wait to welcome you aboard.”
