Day 1 - Southampton

Arrive: Sun 22 May 2022 / Depart: Sun 22 May 2022

Southampton offers fast and efficient check-in areas, spacious departure lounges with seating areas, café-bars and smart washrooms. If you wish to travel by car and park for the duration of your cruise, you can pay for and reserve parking in advance directly with the relevant company.

Day 3 - At Sea

Day 4 - At Sea

Day 5 - Alicante

Arrive: Thu 26 May 2022 / Depart: Thu 26 May 2022

Alicante's splendid Paeso Maritimo stretches northeast from the harbour, bristling with pleasure boats, to the expansive beach of Playa del Postiguet. The Rambla de Mendez Nunez leads to a lively market, while the Cathedral de San Nicolas de Bar is dedicated to the patron saint of Alicante. Most famous city landmark, the 3rd century Castillo de Santa Barbara, perched above the city on Mount Benecantil, affords marvellous city panoramas.

Day 6 - Barcelona

Arrive: Fri 27 May 2022 / Depart: Fri 27 May 2022

One of the Western Mediterranean's most colourful metropolises, Spain's cosmopolitan second city overflows with interest, it's mood infused with a vibrant Catalan spirit and heritage. You'll catch the pulse of Barcelona when you stroll the mosaic paved Ramblas, the city's social hub, with open-air cafes, street entertainers and flower displays - and meet its unique cultural heritage in the ancient Gothic Quarter, the surrealistic architecture of Antonio Gaudi, and some outstanding museums and parks.

Day 7 - Cannes

Arrive: Sat 28 May 2022 / Depart: Sat 28 May 2022

Given its association with the rich and famous, the city of Cannes is renowned for its film festival, glorious beaches and high-end shopping. Made famous by the Cannes Film Festival, this picturesque paradise located on the French Riviera is bathed in sunshine for most of the year. A stroll along the palm-lined Boulevard de la Croisette, which curves along the coast, has sandy beaches one side, and upmarket boutiques and palatial hotels on the other. There is plenty to explore and discover in the city centre. Many boutiques selling top fashion and jewellery brands sit next to an array of restaurants serving the finest cuisine. Even having a coffee in Cannes is a glamourous, out-of-the-ordinary experience. Cannes of the 19th century can still be seen in its grand villas, and there are plenty of museums to enjoy – notably the Musée d'Art et d'Histoire de Provence. Of course, for those visitors feeling lucky, the luxury casinos are popular night-time spots.

Day 8 - Nice (Villefranche)

Arrive: Sun 29 May 2022 / Depart: Sun 29 May 2022

One of the most picturesque old fishing ports of the Cote d'Azur, Villefranche lies at peace between the more energetic pace of its famous close neighbours, Nice and Monte Carlo. Its tall brightly coloured and almost Italianate buildings rise beside narrow streets and stairways from the sheltered harbour, where fishing boats and yachts are moved and enticing restaurant terraces look out to sea. From here shore visits will take you to Monaco, Nice, Cannes and other legendary highlights of the Riviera!

Day 9 - Bandol

Arrive: Mon 30 May 2022 / Depart: Mon 30 May 2022

Bandol is a Western Mediterranean (and French Riviera) cruise port and town in France's Provence-Alpes-Cote d'Azur region

Day 10 - At Sea

Day 11 - Gibraltar

Arrive: Wed 01 June 2022 / Depart: Wed 01 June 2022

Dominated by ‘the Rock', a towering 1, 396 ft sentinel that guards the Straits, the Arabs' Gebel el Tarik or Tarik's Rock is today simply ‘Gib'. Resolutely British for nearly 300 years, its unique setting unites the oddly familiar - from the helmeted policemen to Marks & Spencer - with an extrovert Mediterranean mood. Test the shops and pubs in Main Street and Irish Town, take a cable-car ride to enjoy the grandstand views to a nearby Africa, and of course make a call on those Barbary apes!

Day 12 - At Sea

Day 13 - At Sea

Day 14 - Southampton

Arrive: Sat 04 June 2022 / Depart: Sat 04 June 2022

Southampton offers fast and efficient check-in areas, spacious departure lounges with seating areas, café-bars and smart washrooms. If you wish to travel by car and park for the duration of your cruise, you can pay for and reserve parking in advance directly with the relevant company. Alternatively, if being dropped off or collected by taxi or private car, they can drive right up alongside the terminal building.

Bolette From Fred Olsen Cruise Lines

Our flagship Bolette is everything that our loyal guests have come to expect from a Fred. Olsen ship. Proudly bearing the name of Fred. Olsen Jr.’s great-great-grandmother, as many other Olsen vessels have over the years, she exudes classic, elegant style in her exterior and interior design, features spacious and comfortable public areas, and has all the facilities and special touches you need for a relaxing and enjoyable holiday. While she’s one of the largest ships, by overall size, in our fleet, Bolette has capacity for less than 1,400 guests. So, in keeping with our smaller-ship ethos, you’ll find that you’re not overcrowded on board, Show lessand have plenty of space in which to indulge yourself in the stylish dining venues, enjoy a glass of your favourite tipple and fantastic entertainment at the bars, lounges and theatres, and while away the hours by the all-season pool. And of course, with our friendly staff providing our typical level of personal, attentive service, there’s an intimate feel to the on board experience too.
