2022 cruises from Fred. Olsen to capture the beauty of Norway
2021-02-03T10:48:00+00:00
Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines has released details of seven brand new sailings to Norway, departing from a number of British ports next year.
You will be able to take in the sights of Eidfjord aboard Borealis.
Available to book now, the cruises will be available across the whole Fred. Olsen fleet – Bolette, Borealis, Balmoral and Braemar – with departures from Southampton, Liverpool, Newcastle and Edinburgh (Rosyth) between March and May 2022.
The holidays promise to capture the natural beauty of late winter and springtime in Norway, including narrow fjord cruising and a chance to witness the spectacular Northern Lights.
Clare Ward, director of product and customer service at Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, said: “We are always incredibly proud to take our guests to Norway, as it is from this beautiful part of the world that our heritage stems.
“In Norway our smaller-sized ships really come into their own, allowing us to offer exceptional scenic sailings deep into the heart of the fjords, and to visit many wonderful destinations that can only be reached by smaller ships, such as Fjaerlandsfjord and Åkrafjord.
“Our handcrafted sailings allow our guests to experience the best of Norway in the spring, from sailing the size-restricted Lysefjord and cruising amongst the steep, rocky mountains to enjoying a scenic diversion into Maurangerfjord to turn in front of the sprawling Fureberg waterfall at a time of year when the melting snow makes it flow stronger.
“On visits to Bergen, hike up Mount Fløyen with a local as your guide, experience an authentic husky ride in Tromsø and spend time with members of the Sami communities in Alta.”
