Fred Olsen Cruises Cruise Line Information
Fred Olsen Cruise Lines offers a true combination of British style, Norwegian heritage and international hospitality. This creates a relaxed ambience unique in cruising. A reassuring feature of Fred Olsen cruise ships is the long-serving staff onboard. See it for yourself, have a look at our Fred Olsen cruise deals available.
The ships' officers and crew will make you feel comfortable and relaxed from the moment you step onboard. It's the little things which make all the difference like when the barman remembers your favourite drink or when a crew member remembers your name.
A Warm Welcome awaits you
If you are thinking of a special treat for the person you are travelling with enquire about Fred Olsen's Welcome Aboard packages - they are a lovely surprise and very good value for money – a lovely floral bouquet, delicious chocolates, a fruit basket, champagne and canapés and a card will be waiting in your cabin.
The Atlantis Salon onboard offers an extensive range of beauty treatments and services including facials, massages, manicures, pedicures and hairdressing.
Fred Olsen's Distinction
As a family company, Fred Olsen Cruises are proud of their fleet of smaller, intimate ships and their art of cruising offering a more personalised experience, one that is unashamedly British.
Their personable and long-serving crew are well-versed in ensuring your relax the moment you step aboard. For many passengers, it is the happy blend of agreeable companions that is their distinction, a point wholly endorsed by one of their loyal Oceans club members below.
Testimonials from Fred Olsen Customers:
Reassuringly there every time
Many cruise ships visit the same or similar places, so why do we always choose Fred Olsen? You might as well as ask me why I married my wife! It is all about emotions. You expect quality on a good ship, but Fred Olsen knows from very long experience, and from listening to their customers, what makes a special cruise; one that it a real emotional experience, and one that leaves them wanting more.
They are never processed; everyone is an individual. The staff have a real interest in their passenger, their likes and their dislikes, and have an amazing desire to please. They know that the home they leave at the end of each cruise will be the home they enter next time they board. Can one ask for anything more?
At home the world over
The staff are themselves a very happy family, but we become part of their family and we become part of theirs. The chemistry between staff and passengers creates a sense of belonging, a genuine feeling or warmth. Everyone on board has their part to play and everyone joins in.
And they know they will always be welcomed back as friends, not just as passengers. I remember they once stood in Main Street, Gibraltar and the rain was tipping down. They looked at each other and said "Oh lets go home" and they meant the ship. You don't believe me? Home is where the heart is!
Life on Board
Your holiday begins the moment you embark the ship to a warm welcome; you unpack only once and in no time, an array of destinations are almost delivered to your cabin door. As the cruise progresses you choose whether to relax on board or head off in search of new experiences.
If you don't want to wear formal dress for dinner every night, you don't have to as there are no strict rules onboard.
Variety, the spice of life
Cruising around the world, you soon learn to relax on a Fred Olsen cruise holiday - there are swimming pools to lounge around with a good book, but also the ships are fully equipped with Beauty salons, Internet services and Gym facilities.
As the Sun goes down
Night time onboard with Fred Olsen is fun filled or more relaxed if that is your wish. Dining is truly wonderful - you can choose to go A La Carte in a formal restaurant or more relaxed in the main dining room.
No night onboard is complete without some dancing, either with the live band playing classic hits, or the onboard disco.
Make the most of your cruise
On Fred Olsen's special Arts Club cruises you can look forward to enriching your life through learning from a first rate team of experts, selected for their world-renown knowledge and experiences.
