Australian cruise fans who have sailed with the major lines can explore Europe with a different, boutique cruise company thanks to a new fly, cruise and stay deal with Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines packaged by Australian small ship cruising specialist, Cruise Traveller.
Based in Britain, Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines boasts smaller and more intimate ships showcasing traditional seafaring heritage and the calming pleasures of classic cruising. Cruise Traveller is the exclusive Australian representative for Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines.
Designed exclusively for Australians, Cruise Traveller’s new 24-night ‘Adriatic Adventures’ package, which includes onboard beverages, begins on February 26, 2024, with an included flight from Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide or Perth to London for a three-night, pre-cruise stay and full day tour of the city. Guests then take a first class rail trip to Liverpool where they will board Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines’ stylish, 1338-guest flagship, Bolette, for a 20-night round-trip voyage from Liverpool to the Mediterranean and Adriatic.
Able to access smaller and more remote ports bigger ships cannot reach, Bolette will take discerning guests on an enriching, culturally-immersive journey to Gibraltar, famous for its rocky peak guarding the entrance to the Mediterranean, the archaeological relics of Sicily, the Dalmatian Coast destination of Split, the medieval, walled cities of Dubrovnik and Kotor, the Old Town of La Goulette in Tunisia, the sun-splashed piazzas of Cartagena, Spain and the cosmopolitan, Portuguese capital of Lisbon.
The voyage ends back in Liverpool where guests will travel by first class train to London for a final night’s stay before flying back to Australia.
