Sizzling South America Cruise Savings From Fred. Olsen

Balmoral L110112A Southampton – Callao

Escape the doldrums of a cold, British January, and escape across the Atlantic aboard Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines’ Balmoral. Fred. Olsen has an unbeatable offer on the first sector of its 2011 World Cruise, a 22-night South America cruise, departing from Southampton on 5th January 2011.

Escape the doldrums of a cold British January, and head across the Atlantic aboard Balmoral. The relaxed sea crossing is broken by a first call into Funchal, capital of the lovely garden island of Madeira. Next, it is on to the warm welcome of the laid-back Caribbean, where the mouth-watering islands visited are Barbados, Grenada and Aruba, before the highlight of this cruise – a daylight transit of the Panama Canal.

This brings Balmoral to her first port in South America – Manta in Ecuador. From here, she sails to Callao in Peru, where the sector ends with a return flight to London,Gatwick.

Dancing fans will be pleased to know that there is an additional attraction – a theme of ‘Ballroom Dancing’, through Fred. Olsen’s programme of special interests on board, The ArtsClub.

Prices for this sensational cruise sector are currently starting at just £1,652 per person, based on two adults sharing a Superior Outside Cabin (Latesaver Offer.) The price includes all meals and entertainment onboard, port taxes, return charter flight with transfers, and airport taxes.

Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines

At Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines we are very proud of our smaller ships – Bolette, Borealis and Balmoral - and the imaginative and unusual itineraries they allow us to offer. Every cruise is hand-crafted from scratch by our team of in-house Journey Planners to make sure you are not only visiting the best destinations, but at the best time to experience them.

For us, it’s not just about where we go but how we take you there. We put as much time into planning scenic cruising as we do in choosing the destinations themselves. On board, our Signature Experiences showcase the history, culture, nature and flavours of the destinations you’ll visit – from Treats of the Region, where you can enjoy local delicacies, to our Sky at Sea star-gazing sessions where you can relax with a hot toddy out on deck while our astronomer talks you through the night sky.

Plus, with each ship carrying 1,300 guests or less, our ships are small enough for us to offer a warm, friendly and personal service where nothing is ever too much trouble, as we visit a host of exciting ports in every corner of the globe.
