Fred Olsen cruises offer a traditional cruising experience and their small ships have a more personal and intimate ambience on board, each ship has its own unique personality. Predominantly sailing from the UK as well as offering some fly cruises, you will sail to a range of destinations around the world, from the icy waters of the Arctic to the sun-kissed beaches of the Caribbean.
A Fred Olsen cruise offers a wide range of activities and entertainment so you’ll never be short of things to do. Learn a new hobby or skill such as ballroom dancing and language classes, or you can keep fit with yoga, pilates and fitness activities. In the evening, sit back with your favourite tipple and be entertained by fantastic cabaret shows, comedy acts and live music.
Dining at sea is a special occasion every day on board a Fred Olsen cruise. You will have the pleasure of dining on award-winning food created daily by expert chefs whenever and wherever you like. There’s something to suit your every taste and mood, whether you want to indulge in an elegant 5-course a la carte dinner or opt for something more relaxed. There’s also a late night buffet if you’re still feeling peckish.
On board a Fred Olsen cruise, there are room types to suit every need and budget, from cosy interiors to large suites as well as single rooms. Fred Olsen cruises are a popular choice for single cruisers as you can stay in a single room without paying a supplement for a twin room. If you’re looking to make your cruise extra special, why not treat yourself to the added luxury of a suite. And, when you book selected suites you can enjoy a complimentary Suite Dreams benefits package.
Fred. Olsen's return to the water has arrived — come this July. For this momentous occasion, they have hand-crafted a special selection of itineraries to make sure that your return to the water is welcoming, safe and relaxing.
You'll have the choice of three regional departure ports, and all the cruises are short and sweet, between 3 and 7 nights — the perfect way to dip your toe back in the water.
These short, scenic cruises will tour around our beautiful British Isles. These will also be our new ships, Borealis and Bolette’s maiden voyages, as well as Balmoral’s return to the sea.
Choose from a selection of 4-5 night holidays that offer scenic sailings around the beautiful British Isles, up to the rugged Faroe Islands and through Norway's majestic fjordland. These non-stop journeys have been specially planned to show you the very best scenery, landmarks and natural wonders.
These shorter sailings were created specifically to show you the best of the British Isles. From the remote and rugged Scottish Isles and the maritime history of Belfast, to the scenic south-west of England.

The cruise line has been working hard with other UK cruise lines, CLIA and Public Health England to establish its approach, as well as reviewing the EU ‘Healthy Gateways’ guidelines to ensure that the best protocols are put into place before sailing resumes.
The Safe Sailing Charter has been developed to advise customers in all the ways which Fred. Olsen is keeping guests safe and will be continually reviewed and updated as the situation evolves over the coming months. Initially, just some of the ways which Fred. Olsen has developed its Safe Sailing Charter includes a dedicated sanitation team frequently cleaning with anti-viral solutions; development of agreed and comprehensive processes to treat guests with symptoms on-board; pre-approved tour partners and small groups; and additional port options.

Once again you have come up trumps. The phone is always answered with a cheery voice and booking is a pleasure. What a difference it makes to talk to real live human being. We have got exactly what we wanted and you are always there if we have any queries. We did actually have a minor hiccough which was instantly sorted. Brilliant service.
