Five new experiences focus on Itinerary Insights, The Sky at Sea, Treats of the Region, Scenic Discoveries, The Ship and The Sea, and An Audience With, delivered by specialist guides and field experts.
Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines is immersing guests in their cruising journeys with five new 'Signature Experiences':
- 'The Sky at Sea' showcases open air sunrise, sunset, and stargazing events, with 'Scenic Discoveries' offering wildlife, flora, and fauna spotting experiences in one of the cruise line's Observatory Lounges.
- The 'Itinerary Insights' programme will offer lively lectures and informative talks on cultural, artistic and historical highlights giving guests a deeper understanding of the destinations they're set to visit.
- 'The Ship and the Sea' spotlights the maritime traditions onboard, with 'An Audience With' capping off a programme of speeches with Captains and crew members.
- 'The Treats of the Region' caps off the lineup, with live cooking demonstrations of local delicacies.
Clare Ward, director of product and customer service at Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, said: “At Fred. Olsen, we feel passionately that a cruise is different to a holiday, and we want to be doing all we can to celebrate that. A cruise brings with it experiences that simply aren't possible with other forms of travel, such as the chance to witness breath-taking scenery best viewed from the water, spot native marine wildlife and birdlife or capture spectacular sunrises and sunsets, or stargazing with a cup of hot chocolate out on deck.
“Each of these experiences has been designed to celebrate what we think is special about the way we cruise, and to help our guests to really get the most out of their time on board and the places they are visiting with us.”
The 'Joy of the Journey' programme has been introduced in part across 2022 sailings, with the full programme up and running on all cruises from 2023.
