Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines has unveiled a brand new programme of cruising for 2024/25.
The new programme includes opportunities to follow natural bird migrations, witness meteor showers, experience the world’s second-largest carnival, and the chance to spot wild polar bears.
For the first time since 2019, the new programme also features an 11-night Mystery Cruise setting sail from Southampton in November 2024.
Guests will be able to follow in the footsteps of explorers, navigators and seafarers as they guess their next port of call.
Sailing from regional UK ports, Fred. Olsen will offer departures from Liverpool, Newcastle, Rosyth, Dover, Southampton and Portsmouth in 2024 and 2025.
The cruise line has unveiled a number of offers to celebrate the launch, including:
- Up to £150 per person to spend onboard on sailings of five to 12 nights
- The choice of up to £250 per person in onboard spending credit OR free door-to-door transfers within 250 mainland miles of the port
- A series of dedicated offers for solo offers.
Martin Lister, Head of Itinerary Planning and Destination Experience at Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines said:
“This has been a particularly exciting programme to curate, and we have taken inspiration from both natural and organised events in the destinations to create some really imaginative and unusual itineraries.
“Some of the highlights include chances to witness the Perseid Meteor Shower in sailings to the Azores, to seek out the phenomenal Northern Lights in adventures to the Arctic or to visit the beautiful Norwegian Fjords in the spring when the waterfalls are at their strongest.
“There are many opportunities to uncover the ancient history and fascinating cultures too, including in sailings to the Adriatic, Mediterranean and Baltic regions.
“Of course, we will be making the most of the smaller size of our ships where we can too, allowing us to visit smaller ports away from the well-sailed route, and dock closer to the centre of the destinations.
“In addition, we have continued to curate our onboard programme.
“From sessions out on deck, whether it’s to join an astronomer for stargazing or spotting marine life with wildlife charity ORCA, to witness incredible scenery best viewed from the water, or to sample authentic flavours from the destinations, our Signature Experiences enable those sailing with us to get even more from their cruise.”
