At Fred. Olsen we’re a little different to the bigger cruise lines, and proudly so. Cruising, to us, is about enjoying the journey and seeing the world in comfort and style. It’s also about choice – the freedom to explore your way. It’s travel at its most rewarding: unhurried, carefully considered and full of character. In fact, many travellers choose Fred. Olsen for the special experience we offer onboard.
Always in the best of company
Our story began in Norway, where time on the water is part of daily life. It’s a heritage we’re proud of, one that shapes our respect for the sea, our love of exploration and the warm welcome you’ll find on board. We live by the saying ‘I det beste selskap’ – ‘in the best of company’ – and that’s precisely how we want you to feel when you sail with us: relaxed, valued and part of something truly special. Sailing with Fred. Olsen means joining a tradition where guests are always treated as family.
Smaller ships, refined traditions
Our ships are smaller, warmer and full of charm. With space to relax and thoughtful touches throughout, they offer a more personal way to cruise. We’ve preserved the timeless pleasures of sea travel, but shaped them for today, with comfort, character and a relaxed sense of occasion. Fred. Olsen ensures that each journey is personalised, creating a unique experience at sea.
Curated journeys, not just cruises
We design our itineraries to blend iconic destinations with lesser-known gems, creating journeys that enrich and inspire. Whether you’re seeking famous sights or quiet corners, our sailings are carefully curated to help you explore the world in a more thoughtful and rewarding way. Choosing Fred. Olsen means your travel experience is always exceptional.
Your cruise, your way
Whether you prefer a peaceful spot with a good book or a full day of activities and entertainment, life on board offers plenty of choice, all in the warm, welcoming atmosphere of our smaller ships.
Service with genuine warmth
What sets us apart is our crew. From the moment you step on board, you’ll be greeted with warmth, care and a level of attention that feels refreshingly genuine. They take the time to get to know you, from your name to your favourite drink. Undoubtedly, the team at Fred. Olsen goes above and beyond for every guest.
