FOCL voted
Cruise Line
of the Year

FRED. Olsen Cruise Lines enjoyed success at the first Cruise International Awards, winning the hotly-contested accolade of Cruise Line of the Year.

The new awards, covering 20 categories,  attracted 180,000 votes from readers of Cruise International magazine and cruise customers, across 20 categories.

The top award was presented to Fred. Olsen by Adam Coulter, Cruise International magazine editor, and celebrity business "guru" Nick Hewer ofThe Apprentice.

Fred. Olsen was also voted Best Educational Cruise for its Vistas on board enrichment programme - which has featured the likes of The Archers and an Agatha Christie-themed cruise - and Best Live Performance for classical duo, The OperaBabes, who electrified audiences on board Black Watch's Mediterranean cruise in October 2010, as part of Fred. Olsen's popular Music & Laughter programme.

Fred. Olsen customers will have an exclusive opportunity to see The OperaBabes, one of the finest classical acts around perform again, next month on Braemar's ‘Spain and Portugal' M1123 cruise.

Fred. Olsen was also highly commended the  ‘Best Value Cruise Line' category.

Join Peter Sissons on the Boudicca

FRED. Olsen Cruise Lines is proud of its philosophy ‘It's all about the people' and the cruise line is famed for its personal touch.

Part of the pleasure of a cruise is to meet new people and enjoy stimulating discussion - perhaps learning something new along the way. 

An eclectic mix of speakers appears as part of Fred. Olsen's cruise enhancement programme, Vistas, which covers a host of fascinating topics that guests can enjoy at no extra cost.

Veteran newscaster and broadcaster, Peter Sissons will be the guest speaker on D1223, Boudicca's 23-night cruise to the Mediterranean, departing from Portsmouth on October 12.

The cruise visits Portimăo (Portugal), Ibiza (Spain), Valletta (Malta), Piraeus for Athens (Greece), Alexandria (Egypt) for an overnight stay, Tripoli (Libya), Algiers (Algeria) and Gibraltar, returning to Portsmouth. Prices are from £2,379 per person.

Tony Soper joins cruise to North Cape

EXPEDITION leader, naturalist, and veteran broadcaster, Tony Soper, will be joining guests aboard, Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines' Braemar cruise to the North Cape, M1214, in June.

Appearing as part of its Vistas cruise enhancement programme, Tony's expert topic will be Flora and Fauna.

A renowned bird watcher, Tony is also an accomplished expedition leader, having led wildlife safaris to both the Arctic and the Antarctic, and is a pioneer of expedition cruising.

The cruise lends itself perfectly to Tony's subject. Sailing from Dover on June 14, the first port of call is Ijmuiden (for Amsterdam), then Braemar cruises north to Leknes, in the Lofoten Islands, inside the Arctic Circle.

Next port is Tromsø and from there Braemar travels right up to the North Cape, to Honningsvǻg, Norway's most northerly village framed by rugged mountains and the Arctic Ocean.

On the return journey, Braemar visits Trondheim, then Ǻlesund, with its strikingly pretty ‘Art Nouveau' architecture, and, finally, the bustling port of Bergen, with its cobbled streets and quaint wooden buildings.

The cruise then returns to Dover on June 27.

Prices start from £1,529 per person, based on two adults sharing an inside twin cabin, Grade ‘I'.

The price includes all meals and entertainment on board, and port taxes, and there is no extra charge for Vistas activity.
