Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines has announced its 2021/22 ocean programme, a 28-night Arctic exploration in August 2021, taking in the natural wonders of Greenland, Iceland and northern Norway.

The ‘Midnight Sun & Northern Lights’ scenic cruise will give guests the chance to view the early glimmers of the Northern Lights in Iceland.

On offer is the chance to marvel at the fjords, waterfalls and villages of Norway, as well as the opportunity to go whale-watching in Iceland, explore remote Svalbard – the world’s most northerly town – and take in the panoramic views and dramatic landscapes of rugged Greenland.

“A taste of the many Fred. Olsen adventures to come”

Jackie Martin, marketing and sales director at Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines said: “We are very excited to be releasing this itinerary early from our 2021/22 programme, giving a taste of the many Fred. Olsen adventures to come. This exceptional experience has been timed especially to enable guests to enjoy the spectacular ‘Midnight Sun’, along with the first sightings of the ‘Aurora Borealis’ in Iceland, together with unrivalled scenery and endless opportunities to spot marine and land wildlife in their native habitats.

“As with all ventures of this kind, we will need nature to be on our side – but we are passionate about giving our guests outstanding itineraries and creating memories to last a lifetime, and we are sure that this sailing will not disappoint.”
