The Joy of the Journey

We're confident that when you're on a Fred. Olsen cruise, you'll enjoy the feeling of warmth, friendliness, care and attentiveness offered by our on board teams. Our carefully curated Signature Experiences are delivered by an enthusiastic team of experts in their chosen fields, who have been chosen for their deep knowledge of the history, cultures, people and nature in the places we visit, who bring them to life perfectly. 

On board each and every cruise, and alongside all the lovely food, drink, entertainment and activities you'd expect, you can enjoy some of our Signature Experiences, including discovering how our ships are navigated around the world's oceans in a chart-reading session, or learning how to make a dish native to the region you are visiting.

Across all our cruises, you will see that we take a unique approach to itinerary planning. Ports of call have been arranged so that you're able to experience incredible natural events and destinations, such as the Midnight Sun in Spitsbergen; the Aurora Borealis in Northern Norway, where there will be minimum light pollution; seeing the mysterious Maoi statues of Easter Island; the Rio Carnival in Brazil, or sail the Antarctic Peninsula.

New for 2025, we are offering a range of fly cruises to the breathtaking Mediterranean region, so you can explore as soon as you arrive. With iconic destinations such as the jewel-like Amalfi Coast and iconic Greek Islands, surrounded by the brightest of azure seas, you can fly directly from London Stansted or Manchester on specially chartered aircraft.

When you're on board one of our ships, we've a variety of other activities for you to enjoy, as well as our Signature Experiences.

Choose from learning a new crafting skill, painting with different materials, take some time for yourself in our Thermal Spa, or enjoy a pampering treatment at the Atlantis Spa. In the evening, watch one of our Theatre Company's superb shows, and then go behind the scenes the next day to see how they prepare for each one; or join one of our intereting wine tasting sessions, where you can discover more about the various wines of the world. 

Your Daily Times will have full details of each of our on board activities available each day, so you can plan as much or as little as you like.
