Fred Olsen

Step on board Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines' friendly ships and start your holiday with a smile. As their ships are smaller and more personal, you’ll feel relaxed and at home straight away and will soon get to know the crew and your fellow guests. What could possibly be better than seeing the world, except enjoying it with new-found friends? Each of their beautiful cruise ships has its own distinct personality, but what they have in common is the comfort and great service that we are so proud of. From great bars and restaurants through to entertainment and relaxation, no matter where your cruise is sailing you can rest assured that you are in for an unforgettable journey.

While tipping is entirely discretionary, Fred. Olsen suggests £4 per passenger, per day, half distributed to the cabin steward and half to the dining room steward at the end of the cruise. An unspecified "small lump sum amount" is suggested for children. As gratuities are not included in your cruise fare, it is up to you how you pay. All bar bill gratuities are included in the cost of the drink.
