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

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.
Book online, by calling Reservations
on 01473 742424, or through any ABTA travel agent. Find out more about the Vistas enhancement programme, by visiting
