Meet the Moments Crew
Introducing the 'Moments Crew'
Moments that make you smile, moments that make your jaw drop. Moments that last seconds, moments that last a lifetime. It’s all these unforgettable moments that make a Fred. Olsen cruise.
And now, to help turn these moments into memories that last a lifetime, we’ve assembled our first 'Moments Crew', a group of famous documentarians who will capture guests’ most memorable on-board moments in art, literature and photography.
Artist Jim Moir (aka Vic Reeves), best-selling writer Jenny Eclair, and celebrity photographer Scarlet Page are all setting sail with Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines this year, and are taking their canvases, notebooks and cameras with them.
For a chance to have your special moments captured by the Fred. Olsen Moments Crew, simply book yourself onto Jim, Jenny or Scarlet’s cruise and register your interest in My Cruises to be entered into our prize draw.
