Fred. Olsen Cruises

As a family-run cruise line, Fred. Olsen really take your experience personally. While the rest of the cruise industry has gone for bigger ships, Fred. Olsen has always believed that smaller is better.  They have less guests on board so the service is personal and the atmosphere is warm and friendly. Their elegant, smaller ships can reach places the bigger ships cannot and are able to dock at smaller ports in more interesting places. This passion for cruising has led to them having more returning guests than any other cruise line.

With a small team of specialist itinerary planners they take great pride in hand-crafting each journey, to ensure they show their guests hidden gems as well as highlights on each of their sailings. It is a passion that has won them the Cruise Critic award for Best Itineraries every year since 2015.

You can sail from regional UK ports to hundreds of destinations around the world on their elegant, smaller-sized ships, with sailings available from Rosyth (Edinburgh), Newcastle, Liverpool, Dover and Southampton.
