Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines has 10 Northern Lights cruises with hand-crafted itineraries to ensure guests are visiting the very best places at the very best times.

The cruises, on board Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines’ fleet of smaller-sized ships Borealis and Balmoral, will be setting sail from Southampton, Newcastle and Portsmouth.

Clare Ward, Director of Product and Customer Services at Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, said:

“We know that our guests love to immerse themselves in natural experiences and the Aurora Borealis – one of Mother Nature’s most awe-inspiring phenomena – is a must-see spectacle creating memories that will last forever.

“We have 10 specially timed Northern Lights cruises that offer the best chances to see the dancing ribbons of green, blue and pink illuminating the skies above Arctic Norway.

“Not only this, but our hand-crafted itineraries will also take guests on scenic cruising past ice-capped northern fjords and offer an excursion programme with authentic Arctic experiences for all.”

As well as the Northern Lights, guests will have the chance to enjoy the ultimate Arctic experience of husky sledding, seek out Orca and Humpback whales and experience life as one of the Sami people where reindeer and traditional costumes are an integral part of their culture.
