Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines Worldwide Brochure 2021 / 2022 by Fred. Olsen Travel

SMALL SHIPS FOR A BIG WORLD Whoever said that “bigger is better”? Not us. While the cruise industry has gone for bigger ships brimming with more and more people, we’ve always believed that small is better. Because smaller ships bring big benefits. They mean we can treat passengers as guests, like the family-run business we are. They can dock at smaller ports, much closer to the parts of our planet we’re most passionate about showing. They mean we can avoid overcrowding, both aboard and ashore, so our guests can disembark easily and enjoy the freedom to see, explore and experience. They mean we can offer warmer, more personal levels of service. It would be easy to scale up, cram in and cut corners, but we never will. Because to us, the size we are is the size we should be.

WELCOME

WELCOME ABOARD A very warm welcome to your Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines 2021/22 Worldwide Cruise brochure. In it, you will find a host of new itineraries all designed to allow you to explore the world with us. Your holiday can be as quiet and intimate or as vibrant and challenging as you want it to be, creating that much needed time to recharge. Time spent away from your routine should be the most valuable personal time you will spend in your busy year. Relax in the comfort of our intimate fleet of cruise ships and enjoy the attentive service which we are known for and which brings our guests back, year after year. Each day will give you a memory of time well spent. From your first cup of coffee to your final nightcap, you will have enjoyed every moment whether you have been ‘coast-hugging’ on our RIBs or simply dozing by the pool. We continue to invest in and enhance our ships, not just in how they look and feel but we are proud that our environmental commitment this year has accelerated our programme to eliminate all single-use plastic on all our ships, and we plan more. Travel with us worldwide and visit destinations such as New Zealand or choose a Fly-cruise to the Caribbean. Experience the delicate formality of Japanese culture by visiting one of the many gardens in Tokyo with their traditional tea ceremonies. I especially look forward to being with you when Boudicca visits Japan next January. As an alternative, we have many places to explore from our ships departing from the UK and I am always proud to share my home country. On a scenic cruise to the Norwegian fjords, you will see their natural beauty, particularly on the cruise from Sognefjord to Flåm and Nærøyfjord. Our officers and crew are dedicated to ensuring that the time you spend with us is that restful, well-deserved break you wished for, or the one that satisfies that craving to discover new destinations. Thank you for choosing Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines. We look forward to travelling with you and if you are sailing with us for the first time, I can promise you a holiday of a lifetime.

BIG RE A S O N S TO L O VE WELCOME

OUR SM A L L E R S H I P S We’re small and proud of it because years of experience have shown us that smaller ships allow us to take you on the finest cruises in the world. There are many reasons for this but we’ve distilled them down to seven:

You can visit more interesting places

You get much closer

You can get on and off more easily

Our ships can reach locations that would be impossible for larger vessels. Low bridges, intricate fjords and narrow canals all conspire against big ships, leaving their passengers unable to visit many of the wonderful places that our guests enjoy. Sail with us through places like the Corinth Canal in Greece, the River Seine in France and the Kiel Canal in Germany as well as travelling further into see the beautiful scenery of UNESCO listed fjords like Nærøyfjord.

Big ships often have to dock miles from the places they’re visiting. Our ships, however, can dock right in the heart of some truly beautiful destinations. In Seville, for instance, we just glide into the city centre. In Helsinki, we dock on the edge of the market square. In Bordeaux, we can be alongside the promenade, with the city centre just at the end of the gangway. Meanwhile in Copenhagen, our ships can dock a short walk from the Little Mermaid statue and Amalienborg Palace. We also have our RIBs (Rigid Inflatable Boats). These are our on-board powerboats, which can take you to see breathtaking locations that even the smallest ships can’t reach. What’s more, your RIB tour guides have the expert local knowledge to ensure you get the very best from every trip.

Smaller ships have fewer passengers and smaller groups move more smoothly and efficiently. Which is why, on a Fred. Olsen cruise, you’ll be able to see more, do more and enjoy more. All with a lot less hassle.

You can be kinder to the environment We believe in reducing our impact on the environment. Our smaller ships are powered by cleaner (and more expensive) fuel, and improved engineering has significantly reduced our waste. What's more (or what's less), we've banned single-use plastics from all of our ships. Minimising our environmental impact is a journey that never ends, we’re always looking for greener ways to sail the ocean waves.

WELCOME

You’ll enjoy a more personal service on board

And that’s equally true when we take you ashore

You avoid overcrowding

On our smaller ships, you’ll experience levels of service that other ships may be too big or too busy to provide. Unlike them, we’re not trying to deal with thousands of passengers, so we can provide a genuine and caring service for each guest. We’re a family run business, not a giant corporation, so we take great pride in the way we look after our guests and go above and beyond the kind of service you can learn from a handbook or training course.

As optional extras, we offer immersive shore tours where you “discover” rather than just “see”. In St Petersburg, for instance, you don’t just see the ballet; you meet the dancers too. In Seville, you can watch a flamenco performance, then try it out for yourself; and having enjoyed the Sorrisniva Igloo Hotel in Norway, you can then carve your own ice sculpture. This level of service may explain why we have such a high percentage of guests who return to our ships time and again. They’re very loyal to us. And vice-versa.

On a Fred. Olsen ship, you’ll have room to relax and enjoy yourself in a friendly and elegant atmosphere. And that amiable spirit continues ashore. Big ships often drop several thousands of people at one port, and suddenly the whole place is overrun. With smaller ships and fewer guests, we can show more respect for the places we visit and for the people who live there.

WELCOME

OU R P E O P L E MAKE THE DI F F E R E N C E Captain Rommel Pineda

A cruise liner is only as good as the people who work on it and, at Fred. Olsen, we’re particularly proud of ours. We’ve chosen them for their personalities and skills in providing a warmer, more personal service. And they’ve chosen us because smaller ships create a family home-from-home atmosphere. We run a very happy ship and you’ll notice it the moment you step on board. That relaxed, friendly ambience where nothing is too much trouble. The difference between being treated as a “passenger” and treated as a guest. Fred. Olsen himself is proud of recruiting some very special people who, in turn, are proud to welcome some very special guests.

WELCOME

ON BOARD ENJOYMENT On a Fred. Olsen ship, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find everything you could want for a wonderful cruise. Swimming pools, spas, gyms and professional entertainers who bring the ship to life every night with live music, dance and comedy. During the day you can learn new skills like gin-making, arts, crafts, even other languages. Or if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d prefer to just relax and unwind, you can choose from a selection of great bars, open deck areas, lounges and restaurants where you can enjoy a drink, great food or both. We also have a team of onboard experts whose detailed knowledge of each destination will ensure that your time off the ship is every bit as rewarding as your time on it.

OUR FLEET

BALMORAL Balmoral is our flagship, the largest of our cruise ships. However, with just 710 cabins, sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still small compared with other liners.

OUR FLEET

She can fit along scenic waterways like the Kiel Canal and she’s small enough to provide that warm, friendly Fred. Olsen atmosphere. Yet she’s big enough to offer plenty of space to relax and enjoy spectacular views. Balmoral has undergone a recent refurbishment; some of her cabins and Suites have been upgraded and she now boasts a Flower Shop and an Oriental Room where you can choose from a selection of teas from around the world. She has two show lounges – the Neptune Lounge and the Lido Lounge – where you’ll be treated to some wonderful entertainment day and night. From ample open decks and a choice of swimming pools to late night cocktails in the atmospheric Observatory, every moment on Balmoral is time well spent. Because we believe travel is as much about the journey as the destination.

OUR FLEET

BRAEMAR Braemar is bathed in natural light, has beautiful picture windows and large open decks to provide spectacular views. Her hull shape means she can also take you even closer to many of the destinations we visit.

OUR FLEET

Braemar has 485 cabins and her polished wooden fixtures, sumptuous fabrics and elegant décor give her interior a warm, comfortable feel. Her focal point is the beautifully painted, five-deck Atrium area. Her cascading decks enhance her profile and allow plenty of space to sit and watch the world go by. And her open deck, which stretches right to the bow, is perfect for taking photos of panoramic views. On board, there’s a relaxed, intimate ambience, with our friendly crew providing fantastic levels of service. Guests can enjoy an unforgettable cruise in space and comfort, with a great selection of restaurants and bars offering international cuisine, a wide range of beers, wines and spirits, and terrific entertainment. Braemar has undergone a recent refurbishment to upgrade some of her Suites and cabins.

OUR FLEET

BOUDICCA Boudicca, named after the British warrior queen, has 448 cabins and enjoys a loyal following of guests who appreciate that timeless elegance seldom seen on modern megaships.

OUR FLEET

Sister ship to Black Watch, Boudicca has classic teak decks and promenades. She’s also recently undergone extensive refurbishment of some of her Suites, cabins, restaurants, bars and lounges, so she can continue to show you the world in comfort and style. You can indulge yourself with fine dining at the Four Seasons, Tintagel or Indian Ocean restaurants, have a dip in one of the two pools, take in a show in the Neptune Lounge or simply relax on the Sun Deck. Whatever you choose to do, we make sure that nothing is cramped or crowded. It’s all part of the friendly, attentive service on board Boudicca where our crew are always happy to cater for your every need.

OUR FLEET

BLACK WATCH Black Watch is the inspiration for the little ship on our brochure cover. With 423 cabins, she’s smart, intimate and recalls the golden age of cruising, when ships exuded elegance and charm.

OUR FLEET

The experience on Black Watch is enhanced by our friendly and attentive crew, there to provide the unique personal service for which Fred. Olsen ships are renowned. She has five dining venues, including the Glentanar Restaurant, the Orchid Room and the newly decorated Brigadoon self-service restaurant. You’ll also find bars and lounges offering a constant menu of music, dance and comedy. Outside there are sunny open decks and a lovely teak-lined promenade. What's more, smart TVs, mini-bars and an upgraded 4K, 3D cinema mean that Black Watch is fully equipped for adventure. Black Watch has undergone a recent refurbishment to upgrade some of her Suites, cabins and lounge areas.

OUR FLEET

BRABANT Just like our ocean cruises, Fred. Olsen river cruises are planned with great care and attention to give you a relaxing, rewarding and unforgettable holiday.

OUR FLEET

Check into any one of Brabant’s 78 cabins and you’ll enjoy the same superb standards of service that you’d enjoy on our ocean-going liners. Brabant will transport you through Europe’s areas of natural beauty to the very doorstep of destinations like Budapest, Cologne and Strasbourg. You can take in fairytale towns, world-famous vineyards and glorious, rolling countryside.

You’ll sail through valleys and see natural wonders such as the castle-specked Middle Rhine and towering Iron Gates Gorge. Brabant’s smaller proportions allow her to glide into Luxembourg and all the way to the Danube Delta where the river meets the Black Sea. We plan our itineraries to take you to places few other ships can, and then give you the time you need to explore.

With fewer than 155 other guests on board, you’ll never feel cramped or crowded, just relaxed and happily experiencing the comfortable ambience, attentive service, delicious food and stunning scenery. Full details of all our river itineraries aren’t in this brochure; they merit a brochure of their own. You can order yours at fredolsencruises.com or from any good travel agent.

FOOD

FOOD, GLORIOUS FOOD We’re famed for our food. Buffet breakfasts, leisurely lunches and delicious dining. All prepared by our expert chefs to the highest culinary standards, and all included in the price However, because our ships are smaller, we can go the extra mile. Sometimes less than a mile. At certain destinations, our chefs visit local markets to source the freshest, most authentic ingredients and then create something truly special when they get back on board.

Evening dining is a special Fred. Olsen highlight where you'll be greeted by your maître d’ and escorted to your table.

Your maître d’ will also be happy to advise on menu choices and any other special requests. Each of our ocean ships has a speciality dining option where you can dine for a small extra charge. The Grill restaurant is smaller, more intimate and just perfect for that extra special occasion. Being smaller, we have the freedom to use specialist suppliers wherever we go. We’re therefore delighted to partner with Stokes Sauces and Adnams Brewery, both close neighbours to our Suffolk based support centre. Our exquisite teas and coffees come from Taylor’s of Harrogate - another specialist supplier and are served in our Traditional Afternoon Tea with a delicate selection of sandwiches, pastries and scones. On a Fred. Olsen cruise, we cater for all dietary requirements. So whatever you like to eat, you’ll love eating with us.

Trinidad Carnival

SINGLE SHIP DOCKING

ROBINSON CRUSOE ISLAND

TRINIDAD CARNIVAL

Braemar will be the only ship docked in port when visiting both Basse-Terre, Guadeloupe and Port Royal, Jamaica. Without the tourist crowds, exploration of the sights and highlights becomes easier. Port Royal is of particular interest as it’s the gateway to authentic experiences involving reggae music and the life of Bob Marley.

Black Watch’s exploration of Latin America includes a rare call to this remote destination, situated some 670km west of the Chilean mainland. The island is thought to be the inspiration behind the fictional character from Daniel Defoe’s famous 18th century novel. For this reason, it was later renamed Robinson Crusoe Island.

In March 2022, Braemar will be in Port of Spain, Trinidad for part of its annual Carnival. It’s the original Caribbean festival, the one on which the Notting Hill Carnival was based. With its exuberant costumes, steel drums, ‘soca’ calypso music, and limbo dancing, it’s the perfect way to experience Trinidadian culture..

SCENIC CRUISING CARIBBEAN & THE AMERICAS

Sailing around the Americas displays both natural and manmade wonders for you to enjoy from the deck of your ship. The iconic Panama Canal – considered by many as the ‘Eighth Wonder of the World’ – offers one of the great cruising experiences. Equally, the rugged mountains and glaciers of Chile’s fjords make for excellent sailing. Meanwhile, at the southernmost tip of South America, Cape Horn marks the point where the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans meet. See pages 36, 38 & 39

Panama Canal Casa Rosada, Buenos Aires

CULTURAL EXPERIENCES IN SOUTH AMERICA Rio de Janeiro, Buenos Aires and Montevideo are home to countless landmarks and provide a window into the history and culture of South America. In Buenos Aires you can explore the life of Eva Perón and meet the curator of the Evita Museum, while Montevideo is the starting point for a day in the life of a traditional Uruguayan estancia (cattle ranch). See pages 36 & 38

Main Street

HAVANA Visiting Havana is an ideal opportunity to delve into typical Cuban culture, whether you’re sipping on a rum cocktail, learning the rhythms of rumba, or enjoying an evening cabaret performance. And visiting on a smaller ship offers further reward as you can dock closer, bringing the highlights within reach. See pages 36, 39, 42, 43, 45 & 47

CANARY ISLANDS, MADEIRA, AZORES & AFRICA The sun-drenched Canary Islands boast a variety of landscapes, from volcanic vistas and golden dunes to pine forests. While nearby, Madeira offers floral blooms and fine wines. The natural wonders of the Azores are best explored on a small ship and a great way to experience Cape Verdeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s music and culture is to head to the markets. On the North African mainland, Morocco brings an exotic flavour to your cruise.

UK & IRELAND

UK & IRELAND Cruising around the UK you can encounter iconic landmarks and some surprisingly dramatic scenery. And itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all without travelling too far! Whether you like the sound of some relaxed time in Devon and Cornwall or heading on a voyage around the British Isles, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in for an enriching experience. The journey is every bit as rewarding as time spent ashore. On board our smaller ships you will experience better views of the coastline, lochs, loughs and more.

Cliffs of Moher 63

UK & IRE L AND Our cruise highlights

Trinity College

DUBLIN Dublin is a great spot for a slice of Irish culture; head to the Guinness Storehouse or explore the vibrant Temple Bar district and you’ll see just why. With Braemar small enough to dock at pier 18, exploration becomes easier: of all Dublin’s cruise terminals, it’s the one with the shortest journey into the city centre. See page 68

Plymouth Gin Distillery

DEVON AND CORNWALL Calling at Plymouth and Falmouth, you can visit a host of attractions, from the Lizard Peninsula to the Plymouth Gin Distillery. A small ship, such as Braemar, can get closer to the attractions in both destinations. In fact, only small ships can access the harbour at Plymouth. See page 67

Ben Nevis

FORT WILLIAM As you approach Fort William, you’ll see Ben Nevis – the UK’s highest point. You’ll then go on to explore this Highland town and its quaint streets. This is all possible because our smaller ships can squeeze through Loch Linnhe’s narrowest point – Corran Narrows. See page 72

SCENIC CRUISING UK & IRELAND

The British Isles have countless sights that are best viewed from the deck of a smaller ship. There’s Fingal’s Cave and the bonnetshaped island of Bac Mòr (The Dutchman’s Cap). And there are serene lochs too, Loch Fyne is a perfect example. Meanwhile, a highlight of Ireland is Killary Harbour, a glacial fjord flanked by rolling green hills. See pages 66, 68 & 70-72

Fingal’s Cave Tarbert Harbour

SMALLER SHIPS, SMALLER PORTS When aboard a smaller ship you’re sailing with fewer guests. This means you can discover destinations that are off-thebeaten-track without overcrowding them. In the UK & Ireland you’ll find some great examples, such as Tarbert, St Mary’s and Rothesay. See pages 66 & 72

Giant’s Causeway (on a tour from Belfast)

EVEN MORE HIGHLIGHTS Belfast, Kirkwall and Lerwick are great starting points for visiting some of the UK’s finest natural displays. Giant’s Causeway and RSPB Sumburgh Head are among them. See pages 66, 68 & 70-72

UNESCO-listed waterways that are flanked by steep mountains, delightful towns and villages and historic cities displaying their heritage with prideâ&#x20AC;Śthe Norwegian fjordland has an appeal unlike anywhere else on Earth. These waters are ready-made for smaller ships to explore.

Trollfjord

Fjærlandsfjord

FJORDS IN NORTHERN NORWAY

FJÆRLANDSFJORD AND ERESFJORD

Nærøysundet makes for a memorable journey, especially when cruising under a low bridge and past the quaint village of Rørvik. Along Nordfjord (Meløy) meanwhile, our ships can cruise further in than Svartisen (Black Glacier) and discover the landscapes surrounding the fjord. Trollfjord is among the narrowest of waterways. As your ship turns within this rocky inlet – which is only accessible to smaller vessels – you’ll feel as though you can reach out and touch the mountainsides.

Only small ships can pass under low cables to enter and explore these steep-sided waterways.

NORWEGIA N F J ORD S

POINTS OF INTEREST ALONG THE WAY We intentionally take the scenic route, along Åkrafjord, so you can see Langfoss – arguably Norway’s most beautiful waterfall. Further north, we’ll sail by Torghatten. Legend states that the mountain’s distinctive hole was created by the Horseman’s arrow. While passing the rocky, green peaks of the Seven Sisters mountain range, you’ll learn how they are claimed to represent seven female trolls who were turned to stone. See pages 82, 83 & 85

Langfoss Waterfall

REWARDING EXPERIENCES ASHORE The coastal towns and cities of Norway offer both natural and cultural highlights. You can head off the beaten track from Olden and discover the Briksdal Glacier with a local geologist; climb into the mountains aboard the Flåm Railway; and even go walking with a local on the summit of Mount Fløyen. See pages 78, 80-82, 84-87 & 89 View from Mount Fløyen, Bergen

NÆRØYFJORD This UNESCO World Heritage fjord gives the illusion you’re heading towards a dead end, then it opens up once again to reveal another twist and turn. We can sail the full length of the fjord to Gudvangen, passing the narrow midway point at Dyrdal. See pages 79-82, 84-87

FJO RDS AND WATE RWAYS

PO INTS O F INTE REST

Tempelfjorden and Prins Christiansund – two waterways rated highly by Fred. Olsen guests – are characterised by wild, rugged scenery and glaciers. Trollfjord offers one of the most dramatic cruising experiences on Earth. The mountainsides feel almost close enough to touch. Meanwhile, the narrow passageway of Raftsundet is surrounded by particularly jagged peaks.

brings a different side of the country. At Torghatten, for instance, you’ll see why legend insists that its distinctive hole was created by the Horseman’s arrow. While the Seven Sisters mountain range is said to represent seven female trolls who were turned to stone. Heading further north, you can find the iconic horn at North Cape, and the volcanic Jan Mayen Island, which you pass when visiting Svalbard. See pages 94, 95, 98 & 103

REWARD ING EXPE RIE NCES AS HO RE A RCTIC

Each part of the region boasts its own highlights. During dog sledding tours in Tromsø, you can learn how to ‘mush’ from a local husky handler. At the Sorrisniva Igloo Hotel, you can meet with one of the sculptors and try your hand at ice carving. Watch for whales around Akureyri. And explore Iceland’s Golden Circle Route, which features Gullfoss Waterfall, the Strokkur geyser and Thingvellir National Park. See pages 94-101 & 103

Gullfoss Waterfall Qooroq Ice Fjord

LOCAL LIF E IN G RE E N L AN D This remote country displays its cultural heritage with pride. It’s particularly shown in towns such as Narsarsuaq and Nanortalik. You’ll spot unique buildings, art forms, historic artefacts and ways of life. What’s more, in Narsarsuaq, Fred. Olsen ships are able to dock alongside, as opposed to tendering to the shore. From here, you can hear the eerie fizzing sound of the icebergs as you sail among them on a boat tour to the Qooroq Ice Fjord. See pages 102 & 103

VOYAGE HIGHLIGHTS This adventurous sailing – encompassing Norway, Svalbard, Iceland and Greenland – is specially timed to capture the midnight sun, and perhaps an early glimpse of the Northern Lights • Scenic cruising highlights include rugged Prins Christiansund, remote Jan Mayen Island, the North Cape, Tempelfjorden, and Trollfjord, which is restricted to smaller ships such as Boudicca • There’s a chance to sail among the icebergs on a boat tour to the Qooroq Ice Fjord from Narsarsuaq

SCANDINAVIA & THE BALTIC

SCAND INAVIA & THE BALTIC In this historic region, you can take in grand royal palaces, medieval castles, canals and cultural icons in one rewarding voyage. The highlights ashore are complemented by sailings of scenic waterways, which are restricted to smaller ships. Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more, some cruises are timed to avoid the peak tourist season, so you can enjoy the attractions without the crowds.

SCANDINAVIA & THE BALTIC Our cruise highlights

TALLINN

HELSINKI

COPENHAGEN

Step back in time as you’re shown around Tallinn’s Medieval Old Town – by none other than the local bell-ringer. This area was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1997 and is rated highly by previous Fred. Olsen guests. Winding cobblestone streets are lined with Gothic spires and merchant houses, which accommodate restaurants, bars, museums and galleries.

Helsinki’s Market Square is less than a mile’s walk from the piers at which our ships can dock. Here you can browse the stalls and perhaps take a ride on the SkyWheel. You’ll be close to Senate Square, the striking Cathedral, and some of the oldest buildings in the Finnish capital, too. Away from the city, there’s a chance to connect with Finnish culture, enjoying a sauna in its place of origin.

Braemar’s more compact dimensions mean you can sail right into the city centre. You’ll step ashore just a brief stroll from the Little Mermaid Statue and the Amalienborg Palace.

Little Mermaid Statue

SCANDINAVIA & THE BALTIC

This grand Russian city is undoubtedly the highlight of cruises to the region – and rightfully so. With the Hermitage, Catherine Palace and tours to meet Russian ballet performers among the highlights, you’ll need extra time to fit everything in. That’s why with us, overnight stays are standard (cruise L2119 includes three days in the city). What’s more, Braemar, Boudicca and Black Watch are small enough to dock more centrally along the River Neva – instead of at the main port on the city’s outskirts. You’ll be presented with views of golden-domed buildings before you’ve even disembarked. See pages 108-110

Church of the Saviour on Spilled Blood

SMALLER SHIPS, SMALLER PORTS Complementing the classic capital cities are some quaint, lesser-known destinations. Only smaller ships such as those in the Fred. Olsen fleet can dock alongside the Polish coastal city of Świnoujście, and berth in the harbour of Trelleborg, the southernmost town in Sweden and a maiden call for 2021. See pages 110 & 111 Trelleborg Stockholm Archipelago

SCENIC CRUISING Arguably, the best way to get to this region from the UK is via the Kiel Canal. Fortunately, Fred. Olsen ships are small enough to fit under the historic waterway’s low bridges, presenting views of the picturesque German countryside. There are many cruising experiences that can be enjoyed from the deck, a particular highlight being the route in and out of Stockholm, which weaves past some of the thousands of islands that make up the Stockholm Archipelago.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all showcased through winding rivers, traditional towns and historic cities. Choose a five-night taster cruise or perhaps an immersive, longer adventure. In many instances, overnight stays allow exploration by day and by night, and your ship can dock within walking distance of the highlights, too.

EUROPE Our cruise highlights

Vineyard (on a tour from Bordeaux)

FRENCH WINES AND OTHER DELIGHTS With our smaller ships able to dock right alongside the promenade, exploration of UNESCOinscribed Bordeaux â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which is home to nearly 350 listed buildings â&#x20AC;&#x201C; starts right at the end of the gangway. A great way to connect with the culture is to take a tour to a small, family-run vineyard and learn some of the local growing and tasting techniques. We also call at the tidally restricted port of Nantes, which is well situated for trips into the Loire Valley wine region. See pages 124, 125 & 127-129 114

EUROPE

Braemar docked in Avilés

EXPLORATION MADE SIMPLER There are plenty of destinations in this region that are more convenient when on a smaller ship. It’s easier to browse Antwerp’s famous diamond district when your ship arrives just a short distance away. You’ll be able to visit La Coruña’s historic Tower of Hercules with ease; explore the picturesque Algarve from Portimão; and try tapas in Cádiz, its purported city of origin. See pages 117-122, 126, 127, 130 & 131

SCENIC CRUISING When cruising through Europe, your journey can often be as rewarding as each destination you visit, particularly when you’re sailing routes usually inaccessible to ocean-going ships. The meandering River Seine is a perfect example. It’s flanked by quaint waterside communities and rolling green hills. The Loire River offers plenty of sights, too, among its verdant, tree-lined banks. See pages 124-126, 129 & 130 Braemar cruising the River Seine

SPECIAL EVENTS AND THEMED SAILINGS The annual Kiel Week regatta is the largest sailing event in the world, and Boudicca will be in town for the penultimate day of the 2021 event. You’ll have the chance to see hundreds of traditional ships and yachts participating in the Windjammer (tall ship) Parade. We’ve also planned two summertime sailings with a theme linked to regional specialities, such as Rioja wines and Cancale oysters. Kiel Week regatta

ME D ITE RR ANEAN Our cruise highlights

VENICE

DUBROVNIK

CIVITAVECCHIA

There’s no better way to see the sights of Venice than via the city’s impressive 150 canals. The aptly named Grand Canal, lined with Renaissance palaces, snakes its way through the central neighbourhoods, passing under the iconic Rialto Bridge along the way. Other highlights include St Mark’s Square and the opulent basilica.

A UNESCO World Heritage Site, historic Dubrovnik is one of Croatia’s most popular destinations. Take time to explore the ancient walls, medieval Old Town and Baroque churches, palaces and monasteries. It will soon become clear why this city is known as the ‘Pearl of the Adriatic’.

Civitavecchia provides access to one of the world’s greatest cities, Rome. Once in the capital, St Peter’s Basilica, Trevi Fountain, the iconic Colosseum, and the Forum of Ancient Rome are all vying for your attention.

SEVILLE M E D IT E R R A N E A N

With Braemar able to dock in the heart of Seville – via the size-restricted Guadalquivir River – your exploration of this vibrant city starts at the end of the gangway. The Gothic cathedral and the iconic Plaza de España are only a short walk away, and the impressive Alcázar Palace is within easy reach too. An overnight call is the chance to watch a traditional flamenco performance. You’ll also be able to learn the dance with a local Bailaora (dancer). See pages 137 & 138

SPECIAL EVENTS The Venice Carnival is undoubtedly one of the best in the world! Balmoral will be in port for three days of the celebrations, so you can join in, surrounding yourself with the extravagant Venetian masks. In addition, Braemar will be in Seville for the authentic Feria de Abril, including its spectacular firework display. And Black Watch will call to Palma in time for the Nit de Foc (Night of Fire) celebrations. This extravaganza features street parties, fireworks, bonfires and the infamous correfoc.

SMALLER SHIPS, SMALLER PORTS Exploring lesser-known destinations is made easier thanks to our smaller ships. With less people in port, it will be easier to discover highlights such as, Milazzo’s palm-lined promenade and Monopoli’s cobbled old town. What’s more, there are calls into six maiden ports too. See pages 143, 144 & 146

See pages 138, 140 & 143

SCENIC CRUISING Unsurprisingly, the Mediterranean offers its fair share of scenic cruising. Following Braemar’s record-breaking transit through the Corinth Canal in 2019, four sailings of this remarkable waterway feature in 2021 and 2022. Braemar will also sail the fjord-like Bay of Kotor, which presents a mix of soaring mountains, rocky cliff faces and fairytale-esque towns. See pages 144-146

MYSTERY CRUISE

MYSTE RY CRUI SE Whether youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a regular cruiser or new to the experience, the level of anticipation on a Fred. Olsen Mystery Cruise is like no other sailing. The excitement will be palpable from the moment you step on board, with each destination kept a secret until the very last moment.

MYSTERY CRUISE

SMALLER SHIP MYSTERY CRUISE B A LM O RA L 10 nights | 20th September 2021 | Cruise code L2129

Our smaller ships mean we are able to offer ‘quirky’ cruises and our Mystery Cruise is just that. Our Itineraries team love these cruises because they are the only people in the business, except the Captain and navigational crew of course, who know where you will be sailing to. This is a great experience if you have been cruising before and want to try something different, you really won’t know where you are going until you arrive! Whatever your destination, we guarantee outstanding service, delicious food, great entertainment (with an element of mystery!) and an exciting 10 night cruise.

Sail from Newcastle Prices per person, from Interior £1,299 | Ocean View £1,499 Balcony £2,549 | Suite £2,799 Single £2,199

VOYAGE HIGHLIGHTS In each destination, you’ll experience at least one advantage of cruising on a smaller ship. It could be that Balmoral will dock closer to the attractions, for example • Where will you be heading next? Will it be a classic cruise destination or a lesser-known gem? In between all the destinations, you’ll be able to relax in the spacious lounges and public areas; enjoy an extensive schedule of daily entertainment; and take full advantage of Fred. Olsen’s renowned personal service in the bars and restaurants on board

163

A F E W T H I N G S YO U M I G H T WA N T T O K N O W PRICING IN THIS BROCHURE While we offer many cabin types on board, for ease we’ve shown fares for just a small selection on each cruise page. Lead-in prices are displayed for Interior, Ocean View and Balcony cabins, as well as Suites (all based on two sharing) and Single cabins. All prices in this brochure are based on Freedom Fares. This means you have the best benefits and flexibility, including being able to choose your preferred dining time and cabin location on the ship (subject to availability). Prices are available from 4th March 2020 and are correct at the time of going to print, but are capacity controlled and may change at any time. For the very latest prices, call our Reservations Team, see a travel agent or visit fredolsencruises.com. DRESS CODE Most evenings on board have a smart casual dress code. For men, a pair of trousers, chinos or smart dark jeans, coupled with a polo shirt or shirt, is perfectly acceptable. Some guests prefer to wear a jacket and/or tie, which is equally fine. Ladies’ wear may range from tailored trouser suits or casual separates to stylish dresses. Depending on the length of your cruise, there may be one or more formal evenings while you are on board. The exact number, including details of any theme nights, will be advised on your cruise ticket. On these occasions men wear either a dinner jacket or dark suit and tie. Ladies may wear a range of outfits, from cocktail-style dresses to full-length ball gowns.

164

All ships have an additional buffet restaurant in which the dress code is casual. Although trainers, t-shirts, shorts and tracksuits are not allowed in the restaurants for evening dining, you may opt to wear these for comfort during the daytime. PAY I N G Y O U R G R AT U I T I E S To make rewarding staff on board as straightforward as possible, gratuities (applicable to adults and youths aged 12-17) will be added to your on board account. The amount (circa £5 per person, per night) is not compulsory and can easily be altered by visiting Guest Services on board. You are welcome to tip personally if you prefer. We are also pleased to offer the option of pre-paying your gratuities before you travel. Please ask at the time of booking. Unlike some other companies, we can promise that every last penny is shared between the crew who look after you. E V E N I N G E N T E R TA I N M E N T When the lights go down each evening, you can enjoy a live show after dinner courtesy of resident and guest entertainers. There’s everything from music to magic, cabaret to comedy – simply sit back and enjoy it all with your tipple of choice. Following the show, you may opt to seek out the stars using the ships’ telescopes, or simply dance the night away. With Dance Hosts on every cruise, no-one goes too long without a dance partner.

DINING OPTIONS Breakfast is usually served in the main restaurants and casual dining venues between 07:00 and 12:00. Lunch is served between 12:00 and 15:00 in the same venues. Upon your arrival we’ll place a helpful Restaurant Seating Card in your cabin; this will detail your evening dining time and allocated table number for your cruise. Our dining times are first sitting (18:15) and second sitting (20:30). If you are booked on a Freedom Fare, we can offer your preferred slot at the time of booking, subject to availability. Guests booked on Saver Fares can select their dining time for a nominal supplement in advance of sailing. Specific table sizes may be requested, subject to availability. Informal open seating evening dining is offered in Brigadoon on Black Watch, the Secret Garden Café on Boudicca, and the Palms Café on Balmoral and Braemar. On selected evenings, The Grill restaurant offers premium speciality dining (for a small supplement) in exclusive indoor or al fresco locations. Balmoral and Black Watch also offer The Poolside dining experience. These restaurants often feature succulent steaks and seafood – as well as world cuisine inspired by the region you’re cruising – and the setting is spectacular to match. We recommend booking ahead.

H O L I D AY I N S U R A N C E F O R YO U R C R U I S E Having appropriate cruise insurance cover is a requirement for booking your holiday with us. Knowing you have comprehensive cover means you can relax and concentrate on planning the rest of your holiday. To help, we’ve provided three top tips for organising your cover. TIP ONE: Ensure you have the right cover for your Fred. Olsen cruise holiday To avoid any pitfalls it’s best to ensure your cover is specific to cruise holidays. Also, declaring all pre-existing medical conditions to your insurer will reduce your potential for financial consequences.

TIP T WO : Avoid potential loopholes It is tempting to save money and opt for the cheapest holiday insurance. However, many policies have loopholes that will not provide cover for the exact circumstance in the claim. Be sure to investigate what’s covered in your policy.

TIP THREE: Purchase your cover early We advise you to get insurance organised for your forthcoming cruise as soon as you’ve booked. This will give you peace of mind that you’re covered and protect your non-refundable deposit.

F R E D . O L S E N ’ S R E C O M M E N D E D S U P P L I E R I S H O L I D AY E X T R A S We’ve found that – from five years of working together – Holiday Extras provide excellent cover for Fred. Olsen guests. If you’d like a bespoke quote, call 0845 458 0748, quoting ‘FOBR1’ or visit holidayextras.co.uk/fred Holiday Extras Ltd are authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.

V I S A A N D H E A LT H R E Q U I R E M E N T S It may be the case that specific visas are needed for the destinations you’ll visit. As requirements are ever-changing, and vary according to your citizenship, the best course of action is to seek independent advice from a qualified source. Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines’ visa handling partner is CIBTvisas. As well as being fully briefed on our range of destinations, CIBTvisas will give you a discounted processing price. Visit, cibtvisas.co.uk/fredolsencruises or call 0207 593 6223. Please quote the account name ‘Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines’ and account reference ‘FREDOLS’. Similarly, vaccinations can be required when visiting some parts of the world. Your GP can offer advice, or you can contact the Medical Advisory Services for Travellers Abroad (MASTA). General travel advice is available from the UK Government at gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice.

We price our river cruises so you can choose the extras you prefer (like excursions or drinks packages). There’s no need to pay more for those you don’t want. Plus, you’ll find our Juliette Balcony cabins at industry-leading prices.

A-Z AFTERNOON TEA A delicious afternoon tea is served on board daily (except on days of embarkation/disembarkation), providing sandwiches, beverages and sweet treats to fill the gap between lunch and dinner. For an even more indulgent experience, our Premium Traditional Afternoon Tea service – available from just £8.95 per person – combines premium Taylors of Harrogate teas or coffee with an array of finger sandwiches, pastries and warm scones with jam and clotted cream. It’s all served by white-gloved waiters in the stylish Observatory Lounge, with mellow musical accompaniment from our on board pianist. APP Our mobile app contains helpful information to assist you pre-cruise and during your time on board and ashore. Details of daily events, restaurant and bar menus, itineraries, and the top attractions in each port can all be found. You can also use the App to find useful information before you travel and find out more about the Oceans Loyalty Club and its members-only benefits. You can even book your next cruise! A PPL I A N C E S & A DA P TO R S To ensure your electrical appliances are safe to use, please check with Guest Services on board. The voltage on each ship is 110 volts – 60Hz (a U.S.-style 2-pin plug is required) and 220 volts – 60Hz (a Continental-style 2-pin plug is required). Adaptors can be hired on board or purchased from the shop. B AT H R O B E S Bathrobes are provided for guests travelling in Suites; in all other cabin grades these are subject to availability. A refundable deposit is required and a charge is applied to cover laundry costs. THE BOOKMARK CAFÉ The peaceful Bookmark Cafés across the fleet feature a range of speciality coffees and tea blends, accompanied by quality chocolates and other sweet treats. B U R E AU D E C H A N G E All ships operate an on board Bureau de Change, where major foreign currencies may be purchased or sold, subject to local currency restrictions. Exchange rates are competitive and there are no commission charges. C H I L D R E N T R AV E L L I N G O N B O A R D If you are travelling overseas with children under the age of 18 for whom you are not the parent or legal guardian, it is a legal requirement that you obtain the written consent of the parent/ legal guardian and produce this upon request when checking in at the port / airport. A Child Travel Consent Form can be found on our website, or requested from our Guest Services Team. Failure to produce this documentation may result in refusal of passage. For safety reasons, infants must be older than six months to travel. On selected sailings, usually during the Easter and summer holidays, the ‘Little Skippers’ kids’ club operates on board. This offers children aged 5-11 a fun-filled programme of activities each day.* Details regarding the 2021/22 programme will be confirmed on our website in due course. *Please note: The Little Skippers Club also welcomes children under five, however in these cases parents must provide supervision at all times. The club operates subject to minimum numbers being reached.

CHURCH SERVICES On Sundays at sea, the Cruise Director (or Deputy) will lead prayers and readings. During Easter and Christmas cruises and on cruises of 21 days or more, a member of the clergy will lead an interdenominational service. DA N C E H O S T S Dance Hosts are on-hand for all cruises to ensure guests never go too long without the option of a dance partner. There are usually four Dance Hosts available on each ship. D AY T I M E A C T I V I T I E S You’ll find a wide array of daytime activities on all our cruises, from craft workshops to ballroom dancing lessons and games to quizzes. There are gyms, pools and golf nets too (and even a tennis court on Black Watch); you can join in with as much or as little as you wish. Each evening, a Daily Times newsletter will be placed in your cabin, detailing event schedules as well as Shore Tour timings, dress code guidelines and any time zone changes. Daily events are also detailed on the ships’ WiFi portal and on the Fred. Olsen App. D I E TA R Y R E Q U I R E M E N T S We cater for vegetarian, low fat and for dairy, gluten and wheat free diets on board. Please let us know any special requests in advance (giving as much notice as possible). We will do our utmost to source the products required, but cannot guarantee specific brands. It’s worth noting that some requests may not be possible, due to the location of the vessel and availability at local ports. F I T N E S S AC T I V I T I E S There are many ways in which you can maintain your healthy lifestyle while on board, such as taking a walk out on the open deck (five laps is equal to a mile on Boudicca and Black Watch). Our four ocean ships have a fully equipped Fitness Centre, offering treadmills, rowing machines, cross trainers, exercise bikes and a variety of free weights. Fitness classes to suit most levels are available throughout your cruise, including yoga, aerobics and Pilates. All are conducted by qualified fitness instructors. A small charge applies for some classes. It’s worth noting that guests will need to climb steps to access the Fitness Centres on Black Watch and Boudicca as they are not served by a lift. FOREIG N CURRENCY SERVICE Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines has joined with City Forex (FCA ID 524412), a specialist provider of foreign exchange services, to offer a bespoke service for guests. Order foreign currency before your cruise departs (at least a week prior to departure) and you can collect your personal currency pack from Guest Services at the beginning of your cruise.* Advantages of this service include: • Competitive rates • No concerns over postal deliveries or collection from the high street • No commission charges and a buy-back guarantee for US Dollar, Norwegian Krone and Euro notes (only when exchanged on board) • No guesswork with exchange rates, since your rate is fixed at the time of order • No hidden transaction costs For details, terms and conditions, visit fredolsencruises.com.

G A M I N G TA B L E S Our four ocean ships have a small gaming area, where you can try your hand at Blackjack and Roulette. These games of chance are cash only and may not be charged back to your cabin account. GIN Our dedicated gin menu features 18 varieties to pair with your choice of Fever-Tree tonic or alternative mixer. Gin Masterclasses are available on selected cruises on Balmoral and Black Watch for a small fee. During these sessions you’ll enjoy tastings as well as creating a 70cl bottle of your own hand crafted gin to take home. G R O U P T R AV E L If you’re a member of a club, association or corporate group, or you have friends or family looking to see the world together, you’ll find our smaller, friendlier ships ideal for group travel. Very large groups can even have exclusive use of one of our fleet with a ‘full ship group’ booking. Travel with a group and you can enjoy a choice of added value benefits (on request and subject to availability and operational approval). What’s more, if you achieve an agreed group passenger target – usually between 15 and 25 guests, depending on the itinerary – we will give you a free cruise place* as the group leader. We can also offer reduced rates to partners of group leaders wishing to share the same cabin. Our multi-award-winning Group Sales Team can guide you through every stage of holiday planning and tailor everything to match your individual requirements. For more information, call the team on 01473 746 169 (09:00-17:00 Mon-Fri) or email group.sales@fredolsen.co.uk. *The free place is not allocated until the guest target has been achieved, and is a free berth not a free cabin; the target excludes 3rd/4th guests sharing. Free place Terms & Conditions apply. E&OE.

G U E S T S P E A K E R S & P O R T TA L K S On each cruise there are talks or lectures from leading experts. These cover a wide variety of subjects and many are relevant to the specific destination, region and/or theme of the cruise. Our knowledgeable port lecturers will share a wealth of information for your venturing ashore in each port too. H E A LT H A N D H Y G I E N E While we will advise you of any mandatory vaccination requirements for your chosen cruise, health regulations are ever-changing. We strongly recommend you consult with your GP or local medical centre at least 12 weeks before departure. In addition, general travel advice is available from the UK government website www.gov.uk/browse/abroad. To ensure the well-being of all on board, we ask that you to pay close attention to personal hygiene, particularly with vigorous hand-washing with soap and the additional use of the hand sanitisers found around the vessels. ICE CREAM Available in selected venues across all our ocean ships, our menus offer a selection of delicious ice-creams and sundaes – a tasty treat no matter where you are in the world. L AU N D RY S E RV I C E S A laundry and cleaning service is available on board, charged at £12 per bag. All ships also offer a self-service Laundry Room complete with washing machines, tumble dryers and irons. Machine tokens are available at Guest Services, charged at £2. LI BR ARY All vessels have a well-appointed, free-to-use library. LU G G AG E If you are sailing from a UK port, 200lb (90kg) of luggage is allowed. For safety reasons, no one piece should weigh more than 20kg. On fly-cruises, your allowance is subject to the conditions imposed by the air carrier and will vary from airline to airline. On scheduled air services, the free luggage allowance in Economy Class is normally 20kg. You will be advised of your allowance(s) prior to your fly-cruise. Excess luggage charges apply. Please check when booking and on receipt of your holiday tickets. Travel documents, valuables, fragile items and any medication for your journey should always be packed in your hand luggage. You must carry on your dress/suit carriers as hand luggage to avoid any damage passing through the cabin luggage scanners. M E D I C A L FAC I L I T I E S For your comfort, all ships have a Medical Centre offering primary and emergency care. There will be a doctor and/or nurse on call at all times (there are two qualified nurses on each ship). With the centres operating outside of British and European health services, charges are levied for consultations, investigations, prescriptions and cabin visits. A scale of charges is displayed in each Medical Centre, and any incurred charges will be added to your on board account. ‘NEW TO CRUISING’ PROGRAMME If you’re new to cruising with Fred. Olsen, we can offer you a programme to ensure you can relax from the moment you step on board. We’ll organise get-togethers with fellow first-time cruisers and our helpful ‘New to Cruising’ representatives will be on hand to answer questions and offer advice at selected times every day, whether you’re travelling near or far. You can even join a guided ship tour to familiarise yourself with your new ‘home-from-home at sea’. To register, visit our website or advise our Guest Services Department at least 72 hours prior to your UK departure. This programme is not available on Short Breaks (cruises of four nights or fewer).

180

OCEANS CLUB Once you’ve sailed with us, you’ll become a member of our Oceans Loyalty Club and you’ll be awarded one point for every night you spend on board. Oceans Club membership offers a range of benefits, such as 5% discount on cruise prices and special discounts in a variety of retail stores, restaurants and nationwide tourist attractions. The rewards increase with every membership level, so the more you cruise with Fred. Olsen, the more benefits you can enjoy. Of course, there are some membership terms and conditions. We’ll send all the information directly to you when you join. PA S S P O R T S & V I S A S As you might expect, all guests must be in possession of a full passport, valid for a minimum of six months after the final day of the cruise. It should contain several blank pages for the placement of any required country entry stamps. Immigration authorities also require that your passport is not damaged and that no pages are missing. Passport and visa requirements can change at any time. While it is the guest’s responsibility to obtain details of any mandatory visa requirements, we can provide some information, for British citizens, at the time of booking. See page 177 for more information. PAY I N G O N B O A R D The currency on board is Sterling. We operate a credit account system on board, allowing bar drinks, wines in the restaurants, laundry charges, Shore Tour and RIB Tour bookings, shop purchases, medical expenses and any other incidental expenses to be automatically charged to your account. You will be required to register a debit or credit card at check-in, against which your on board account is charged. On board accounts may be settled in cash, however, a debit or credit card must still be registered to open your on board account. Diners Club, MasterCard and Visa credit cards are accepted. We also accept Visa debit cards, but regret we are unable to accept American Express, Solo, Electron, travel agent debit cards or travellers’ cheques or cards. (Selected travellers’ cheques are accepted; please ask for more information before your cruise). PROHIBITED ITEMS To ensure a safe and secure environment for our guests and crew, there are strict regulations regarding items that may be considered to be an offensive weapon (in particular, knives, including skean dhus with a blade of over 7cm). Any such item found will be confiscated. In addition, any alcohol brought from ashore (and any found at embarkation) must be handed to a security crew member for safe storage until the end of your cruise. Should you have any concerns about items that are prohibited, see our website. RIBS Our RIBs (Rigid Inflatable Boats) divert away from the regular tourist trails to reach narrow waterways and natural wonders, getting you even closer to your destinations. Visit the Destination Services (Tours) desk once on board to see the RIB Tours that are available for your cruise. All RIB Tours are subject to availability and service operation. ROOM SERVICE A room service menu, offering light snacks, operates between 10:00 and 22:00 each day (except during embarkation and disembarkation). Beverages are available 24 hours a day. Your menu will be found in your Cabin A-Z folder.

SECURITY To ensure the comfort and safety of all guests and crew, we reserve the right to disembark anyone failing to comply with our on board policies. We know that many of you would like friends and family to join you on board prior to sailing but, for security reasons, no visitors are allowed beyond Security, either in the UK or abroad. SHARING A CABIN WITH MORE THAN ONE PERSON Any adults and children occupying the 3rd and 4th berths in a cabin are eligible for a discount as shown below. This should be deducted from the price shown on the relevant cruise page within this brochure. Any children sharing with one adult in a Twin Cabin will pay the adult fare. Cruise only

S H O P P I N G O N B OA R D The ships’ boutiques offer a wide range of products, including jewellery, perfumes and eveningwear. The shop stocks many essentials, such as sun cream and toiletries, as well as souvenirs. In addition, Flower Shops have been introduced on Balmoral, Black Watch and Boudicca, offering colourful year-round and seasonal flowers, as well as beautiful ready-made bouquets. The shops will be closed in certain ports due to customs regulations. Cigarettes, cigars and alcohol are available for you to take home at tax-free prices via the Cabin Shopping Service. An order form and price list will be in your cabin. Simply complete the form, hand it to your Stewardess or to Guest Services two days prior to the end of your cruise, and your order will be delivered to your cabin on the last day of your stay. It is your responsibility to observe customs regulations. SHUTTLE BUSES Where shuttle buses are provided, they will be free of charge for guests booked on Freedom Fares, and chargeable for guests booked on Saver Fares. SMOKING Smoking (including electronic cigarettes) is not permitted in any inside deck area. Smoking is only permitted on designated open-deck locations and on cabin balconies, with the exception of Terrace Balconies (grades TS, TC and TK). S O L O T R AV E L L E R S Those who travel solo need never be alone as Fred. Olsen has the reputation of operating the friendliest cruise ships afloat. The crew will be waiting to greet you from the moment you arrive, and special activities will be arranged throughout your holiday, giving you the opportunity to meet with fellow guests if you wish. S PA & S A L O N Each Fred. Olsen ship has a well-equipped beauty salon and spa. The Atlantis Spa is open from 08:00 to 20:00 daily, offering a range of beauty and relaxation treatments. These include massages, facials, manicures, pedicures and hairdressing. Demand for treatments is always high, so we advise pre-booking via our website, or as soon as possible once you’re on board.

S PECIAL OCCAS I O N S If you are celebrating a birthday during your cruise, let us know and we will present you with a birthday cake during dinner in the main restaurants. Should you be celebrating a landmark birthday or milestone anniversary, we will even provide a fantastic package with our compliments. We also offer a range of celebration packages, which may be purchased in advance. Treat a loved one to a ‘welcome aboard’ surprise, or perhaps create a bespoke package to suit your own special occasion. What’s more, our smaller, friendlier ships offer the perfect setting for the renewal of wedding vows. We’ll help you mark this special occasion with a romantic ceremony on board, which includes a bouquet and buttonhole, choice of framed portrait, single-tiered celebration cake, a bottle of Champagne and a commemorative certificate signed by the Captain. To find out more, visit our website or contact our friendly Guest Services team on 0800 0355 145. SUITES Our spacious Suites come complete with a range of complimentary benefits we call the Suite Dreams package.* This includes a bottle of sparkling wine and a fresh fruit bowl on arrival, and delicious canapés before dinner each day. There are also luxury towels, bathrobes and slippers. Extras such as laundry vouchers and free pressing for formal wear are sure to come in handy too, particularly on longer voyages. *Suite Dreams benefits are available on all cruises of three nights and above.

S W I M M I N G P O O L S & JAC U Z Z I S Heated pools and Jacuzzis are available and open during key activity hours. Since there are no lifeguards on duty, guests use these facilities under their own supervision. TELESCOPES You can look out for spectacular sights of the night sky – such as lunar eclipses, meteor showers and planets – using the telescopes supplied on board. TENDER SERVICES Some ports require guests to go ashore via a tender. There are 25 steps from the ship to the tender (except for Braemar on which there is a maximum of seven). Please ask about your particular cruise at the time of booking. On safety grounds, wheelchair users or those requiring more than minimal assistance to board a tender will be unable to go ashore on these occasions.

For the safety of guests, and in compliance with International Maritime Regulations, we must limit the number of guests who would require assistance in the event of an emergency. This capacity is set to ten for Black Watch, Boudicca and Braemar, while for Balmoral, we can permit 16. We strongly recommend you are accompanied by an able-bodied companion. On safety grounds, devices weighing in excess of 25kg, that do not dismantle, cannot be carried ashore unless we have the use of an overhead walkway/ air-bridge. Under no circumstances can Fred. Olsen staff carry or lift guests to facilitate embarkation or disembarkation, either at turnaround ports or at ports of call on the cruise. All wheelchair/scooter-use must be pre-booked in advance. Failure to do so may result in refusal at check-in. All wheelchairs/scooters must be presented at check-in and not passed to the luggage handlers with your cabin luggage. At the time of booking, you will be asked to confirm that all persons (excluding fully confined guests) can move around the vessel in a safe and secure manner at all times. Guests unable to comply with this requirement will be unable to travel, and failure to comply with this policy could lead to the loss of the cruise holiday and a total loss of all monies paid. Guests bringing scooters on board may be restricted as to what cabins they can book. Cabins indicated as ‘adapted for wheelchair users’ have private facilities designed for wheelchair users. While there are four adapted cabins on Braemar, space to turn is limited, and therefore we do not recommend these cabins to guests who are fully reliant on a wheelchair. Please note that the Sun Decks on Boudicca and Black Watch are not served by a guest lift. Guests will need to climb steps to access the Sun Deck. Unless able to board a coach unaided, it will not be possible for guests to participate in our organised Shore Tours programmes. However, our Destination Experience Department may be able to arrange private tours that offer adapted vehicles. WIFI WiFi is available throughout the ship: simply connect to the ship’s WiFi signal, register for the WiFi Portal and choose the desired internet package, which will then be charged directly to your on board account. For further information, contact Guest Services. Please be aware that WiFi is subject to service operation and is operated over a satellite connection – with speeds much slower than you would experience at home.

WAT E R S TAT I O N S In support of the nationwide Refill campaign, water refilling stations have been installed across all our ocean ships. We recommend bringing a reusable water bottle with you on your next Fred. Olsen cruise. In doing so, you’ll help prevent plastic pollution from entering the world’s rivers, oceans and seas. WHE E LCHAIRS & RE DUCE D MOBILIT Y We warmly welcome guests with disabilities and/or reduced mobility necessitating the use of a wheelchair or scooter. That said, travelling by sea is not ideally suited to those fully reliant upon such a device or those unable to negotiate a stepped gangway. Other than at our UK turnaround ports, an overhead walkway or air-bridge is seldom available. This means there is sometimes a requirement to use a stepped gangway to embark and disembark the vessel. Subject to tides and local port infrastructure, the angle of the gangway can be steep and requires the negotiation of up to 40 steps.

1. How to book 1.1 Prior to making a Booking you must ensure that you have read and are prepared to accept these Conditions, and have available the information required to make the Booking in compliance with these Conditions. 1.2 A Booking can be made via your travel agent or directly with FOCL: 1.2.1 by telephone: 0800 0355 105 (or 0800 0355 260 for River Cruises); or 1.2.2 through the FOCL Website: www.fredolsencruises. com. 1.3 The Passenger responsible for concluding a Booking with FOCL warrants that they are of at least 18 years of age on the date of the Booking. 1.4 You warrant that you have the authority to make the Booking on behalf of any Passengers named in your Booking.

2. The Booking 2.1 A binding contract will be concluded between you and FOCL only when FOCL confirms acceptance of the Booking. The Booking constitutes the entire agreement between FOCL and the Passenger and, unless otherwise stated in these Conditions, supersedes all other agreements, oral or written. 2.2 You must pay any sum due to FOCL at the time the Booking is made (see clause 4). Where a sum is overdue for payment in accordance with these Conditions, FOCL will have no obligations to supply a Holiday or any other service forming part of the Booking until all amounts have been paid up to date. FOCL may also cancel the Booking. Such cancellation will be treated as a cancellation by you, in accordance with clause 6. 2.3 These Conditions, which incorporate the terms of the Privacy Notices (see clause 23), apply to you and every other Passenger partaking in the Holiday. You warrant that you have the authority to make, amend and/or cancel the Booking on behalf of any Passengers named in your Booking. 2.4 The Passengers under a Booking can only be altered in strict accordance with these Conditions and/or the Package Travel Legislation. In addition the Holiday cannot subsequently be amended or transferred to a lower priced deal or Holiday other than as set out in these Conditions. Bookings must be accepted directly by FOCL and cannot be accepted by any third party. 2.5 FOCL reserves the right to refuse to accept any Booking even if the deposit and the full balance of the Price have been paid by you to FOCL or any third party. 2.6 Children under 2 years of age at the Date of Departure will not be allowed to embark on any cruise where the vessel will undertake a major ocean crossing of 72 hours or longer. Passengers are responsible for ensuring that any children in their care during a cruise are fit and eligible to travel and children on board vessels remain entirely the responsibility of their parent(s) or guardian(s). 2.7 Passengers travelling with children under the age of 18 who are not their parent(s) or guardian(s), will be required to present, at check-in, a letter from the child’s parent(s) or guardian(s) confirming authorisation to take them on the Holiday and to act with full parental authority in the

case of an emergency. This clause 2.7 applies regardless of whether the cruise will leave the child’s home country or not. In the event that a child under the age of 18 has a different surname to their parent(s) or guardian(s), proof of parentage e.g. a birth/divorce certificate must be provided at check-in. Failure to do so may result in denied boarding, with the Holiday treated as a “Cancellation by You” in accordance with clause 6. 2.8 Children less than 6 months old and women who will be more than 24 weeks pregnant at the Date of Departure are not permitted to travel. It is recommended that medical advice is sought prior to booking for children aged between 6 and 12 months. 2.9 FOCL is a bonded tour operator with ABTA Limited (No. W0637) meaning that when you buy a Holiday that does not include a flight, protection is provided by way of a bond held by ABTA Limited. ABTA and ABTA members help holidaymakers to get the most from their travel and assist them when things do not go according to plan. We are obliged to maintain a high standard of service to you by ABTA’s Code of Conduct. For further information about ABTA, the Code of Conduct and the arbitration scheme available to you if you have a complaint, contact ABTA, 30 Park Street, London, SE1 9EQ, tel: 0203 117 0500 or www.abta.com. 2.10 In respect of a Holiday that includes a flight, FOCL holds an Air Travel Organiser’s Licence issued by the Civil Aviation Authority (the “CAA”) (ATOL No. 5016) and as such, FOCL is a member of the ATOL Scheme. All the flights and flight-inclusive Holidays sold by FOCL that are subject to these Conditions are financially protected by the ATOL Scheme. When a Passenger pays for a flight or flight-inclusive Holiday, they will be provided with an ATOL certificate. If they are not provided with one, they are entitled to ask for one and one shall be provided. The Passenger should check the ATOL certificate to ensure that everything they booked (flights, hotels and other services) is listed on it. The ATOL certificate also lists what is financially protected under the terms of the ATOL Scheme and where the Passenger can get information on what this means and who to contact if something goes wrong. Further information on the ATOL certificate not contained in these terms and conditions can be found at www.atol.org.uk/ATOLCertificate / +44(0)333 103 6350 / 45-59 Kingsway, London, WC2B 6TE. 2.11 For the avoidance of doubt, any additional products that are not FOCL products, whether supplied by an agent or Tour Operator or purchased from a third party directly, are not covered under FOCL’s ABTA bond or FOCL’s ATOL licence. FOCL excludes liability to the Passenger in respect of such additional products to the greatest extent permitted by law. 2.12 FOCL, or the suppliers identified on the Passenger’s ATOL certificate, will provide the Passenger with the services listed on the ATOL certificate (or suitable alternatives). In some cases, where neither FOCL nor the supplier are able to do so for reasons of insolvency, an alternative ATOL holder may provide the Passenger with the services they have bought or a suitable alternative (at no extra cost to the Passenger). The Passenger agrees that in those circumstances the alternative ATOL holder will perform those obligations and the Passenger will pay any sums outstanding as part of their Booking to the alternative ATOL holder. However, the Passenger also agrees, that in some cases it will not be possible to appoint an alternative ATOL holder, in which case the Passenger will be entitled to make a claim under the ATOL Scheme (or their credit card issuer where applicable). 2.13 If FOCL, or the suppliers identified in a Passenger’s ATOL certificate, are unable to provide the services listed (or a suitable alternative, through an alternative ATOL holder or otherwise) for reasons of insolvency, the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust may make a payment to (or confer a benefit on) the Passenger under the ATOL Scheme. The Passenger agrees that in return for such a payment or benefit, they assign absolutely to those trustees any claims which the Passenger has or may have arising out of or relating to the non-provision of the services, including any claim against FOCL, any travel agent or the Passenger’s credit card provider, where applicable. The Passenger also agrees that any such claims may be reassigned to another body, if that other body has paid sums the Passenger has claimed under the ATOL Scheme. 2.14 FOCL has no liability whatsoever for flights booked by a Passenger that do not expressly form part of the Holiday. 2.15 In relation to Group Bookings, the person making the Booking (the “Lead Passenger”) warrants that they are over 18 years of age and have authority to contract and accept these Conditions on behalf of all those partaking in the Holiday. Passengers that are subject to a Group Booking (“Group Passengers”) may be required to pay FOCL separately, however Group Passengers will have joint and several liability for all sums due under the Group Booking.

3. Prices and other charges 3.1 Prices are based on operating costs and market conditions at the date they are published and may be revised at the discretion of FOCL at any time. 3.2 Most port and airport charges and taxes are included in the Price of the Holiday. Where these are not included, you will be advised separately. Some overseas charges (including visa charges) and taxes may have to be paid locally by you. 3.3 Subject to availability, discounted prices may be available for Passengers under the age of 18 and in the event, where applicable, a cabin is to be occupied by more than two Passengers. 3.4 All on board accounts will be in Pounds Sterling. Passengers must register a debit or credit card accepted by FOCL at check-in. This applies to Passengers even where they do not wish to open an on board account during their cruise. An on board account will not be granted without a card first being registered. 3.5 All accounts for services, goods, duties, taxes and other costs provided on board the vessel and any other amounts due which are not included in the Price of the Holiday, including amounts for Third Party Services and medical services, must be settled before you leave the vessel, without any set-off or counterclaim. 3.6 Liability for joint on board accounts shall be joint and several between Passengers named on the joint account and other Passengers in any Group Booking (provided such Passengers are aged 18 or over). 3.7 The administration of (including any disputes relating to) on board accounts for River Cruises is the sole responsibility of the owner of the River Cruise vessel. FOCL will have no liability whatsoever in relation to disputes arising from on board accounts on River Cruises, which must be addressed directly to the vessel owner. Further details can be provided on request from the FOCL representative on board. 3.8 In the event that a Passenger fails to settle their on board account on or before completion of the Holiday an administration charge of £75 will apply. FOCL also reserves the right without prejudice to any other remedies FOCL may have under these Conditions or otherwise, to take payment from the debit or credit card registered by the Passenger or any other Passenger that is part of the same Group Booking; cancel any future Bookings the Passenger may have with FOCL; and/or to set off any sums owed to FOCL by the Passenger against any sums due to the Passenger from FOCL. Failure to settle on board accounts may result in legal action against the Passenger or Passengers in question.

4. Deposit and final payment 4.1 Subject to any other terms in these Conditions, the following minimum non-refundable deposits will apply (expressed as a percentage of the Price) and must be paid to FOCL on the dates indicated below. Other payments may also be due at the time of booking. See clause 6.1 below for additional cancellation charges that apply within 90 days of the Departure Date in the event that you cancel your Booking. Fare type On booking 180 days before Departure Date Standard Cruise

15%

Long Cruise

15%

Saver Fare and other Special Offers

100%

The non-refundable deposits reflect a conservative preestimate of the losses and costs incurred by FOCL of remarketing a Holiday following cancellation. 4.2 FOCL must be in receipt of cleared funds for the balance of the Price no later than 90 days before the Departure Date for all Holidays (or such earlier date or time as specified at the time of booking). For any Holidays booked after this date, the full Price must be paid at the time of booking. Alternative payment terms may apply to Special Offers. If, for any reason, any payment due after booking is not received by FOCL by the date it falls due, FOCL has the right to treat this as a cancellation of the Booking by you and to retain any non-refundable deposits in accordance with the terms of clause 4.1 above and clause 6 below. 4.3 Money paid to a travel agent for a Holiday is held by the agent on trust for FOCL, whether or not that travel agent is acting as your agent or as agent for FOCL. Payment of any money to a travel agent or other third party, even if an agent of FOCL, does not constitute acceptance of a Booking by FOCL. 4.4 Prior to acceptance of the Booking and all payments then due, FOCL has no obligations to the Passenger and may return or authorise the return of any payments made with no penalty and without providing a reason.

184

4.5 FOCL cannot accept American Express cards, Electron cards, Travellers’ Cheques or pre-funded cards for any transaction. 4.6 The full Price is payable at the time of the Booking for all Special Offers, including Saver Fares, unless other terms expressly apply. 4.7 For Fly-Cruises, 100% of the cost of the flight element of the Holiday will be payable at the time the Booking is made. Where the cost of the flight is subject to an increase from the price at the time of booking (for example where a Passenger elects to fly from an airport other than the airport advertised with the Fly-Cruise) such increase in price will be payable by the Passenger immediately on demand.

5. Insurance, booking considerations and alterations 5.1 It is a condition of the Booking that travel insurance is purchased before travelling on any Holiday: 5.1.1 Passengers must obtain travel insurance as soon as possible following booking in order to cover cancellation and other possible losses that might arise after booking. This should cover all appropriate travel, non-refundable deposits, cancellation charges, medical treatment, emergency airlift/boat transfer at sea and repatriation liabilities for the Holiday. 5.1.2 FOCL reserves the right to cancel the Booking and/ or refuse embarkation and/or require the Passenger to disembark at the next port of call, without any liability or cost to FOCL, in the event that clause 5.1.1 is not complied with in full by all Passengers under the Booking. 5.1.3 You are obliged to disclose all information to your travel insurer that could be relevant to their decision of whether or not to agree cover or the level of premium they charge, including details of pre-existing medical conditions. Failure to give full, frank and honest disclosure to any insurer’s enquiries will amount to a breach of this clause 5. 5.1.4 Final Holiday documents cannot be released until FOCL has received notification of your insurance policy details. 5.1.5 You will indemnify FOCL against any and all liabilities, costs, expenses, damages and losses (including any direct, indirect or consequential losses, loss of profit, loss of reputation and all interest, penalties, fines and legal and other reasonable professional costs and expenses) suffered or incurred by FOCL arising as a result of: 5.1.5.1 any breach of the condition set out in clause 5.1.1 above; or 5.1.5.2 your insurance being deemed either invalid, inadequate and/or voided; or 5.1.5.3 any other breach of this clause 5; or 5.1.5.4 any claim made against FOCL by a third party for death, personal injury or damage to property arising out of or in connection with any breach of clause 5.1.1 above which is attributable to the acts or omissions of you. 5.2 You are responsible for ensuring compliance with all documentary and health requirements for the entire Holiday, including ensuring that you have: 5.2.1 A full valid and undamaged passport, which is required for all Holidays, including those operating wholly within the UK. Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months after the date of return to the UK. 5.2.2 Any necessary visas for your Holiday. 5.2.3 Any necessary inoculations and appropriate evidence to prove requirements have been complied with. 5.3 At any port or place, FOCL or any other party involved in the supply of services in connection with your Holiday may refuse travel, accommodation, or disembark any Passenger without reimbursement and/or compensation who in the opinion of FOCL or any other party involved might be excluded from landing at any destination by Immigration or other Governmental Authorities. 5.4 Any loss suffered as a result of the Passenger’s failure to comply with this clause 5 will be at the Passenger’s cost (including any additional travel or accommodation expenses or fines). Any cost to FOCL must be reimbursed immediately by the Passenger on demand. FOCL will have no liability to the Passenger whatsoever in the event the Passenger cannot partake in any element of the Holiday as a result of non-compliance with this clause 5. 5.5 FOCL follows guidance from the Foreign and Commonwealth Office when considering the destinations that it offers as part of its cruise packages. However, in the current global political climate, there are many locations which are ostensibly safe but where the risk of terrorism and civil unrest cannot be completely ruled out (including most major cities around the world). Passengers must consider for themselves the safety of their holiday destinations before they book. It is recommended that all passengers review foreign travel advice which can be found on the FCO website: www.gov.uk/government/ organisations/foreign-commonwealth-office. Where the situation changes after the time of booking, the Passenger

is at liberty to raise this with FOCL, whose liability for loss, including death and personal injury arising as a result of terrorism and civil unrest is excluded to the greatest degree permissible by law. 5.6 In the event that a Passenger’s name is misspelt upon booking, this may be corrected free of charge prior to the tickets allowing embarkation of the vessel being issued by FOCL. Thereafter, a charge of £100 will apply per Booking to cover the administrative cost of amending the Booking. Please note the separate provision applying to flight ticket changes at clause 5.8 below. 5.7 In the event that a Passenger is prevented from proceeding with a Holiday, that Passenger shall be entitled to change the name of the Passenger travelling on the Holiday to the name of a replacement Passenger (“Replacement Passenger”), subject to providing FOCL with reasonable notice (in no circumstances less than 7 days) of such name change. FOCL will have no obligation to agree to a name change unless the Replacement Passenger meets and agrees to comply with all terms and conditions to which the original Passenger was subject as part of their Booking. Name changes will be subject to a minimum administration fee of £100 per change, and the Passenger and Replacement Passenger will be jointly and severally liable for this fee and any additional costs incurred by FOCL as the result of the name change, pursuant to clause 5.8 below or otherwise. 5.8 In certain circumstances, the changing of a Passenger’s name in a Booking (including misspelling of a name) may give rise to costs and/or operational difficulties above and beyond the administrative cost to FOCL of amending the relevant Booking. For example, in relation to Fly-Cruises, FOCL will have no control over costs or cancellation policies applied by the airline engaged for providing the flight element of the Holiday. Where additional or nonrefundable costs arise in such circumstances, these must be paid by the Passenger or Replacement Passenger on demand and embarkation will not be allowed until such costs have been paid in full. 5.9 FOCL shall have no liability in circumstances where a name change or other attempt to amend the details of a Booking results in the cancellation of an element of the Holiday by a third party provider. In the event that the actions of a third party provider mean that neither the Passenger nor any Replacement Passenger can partake of the relevant Holiday, the cancellation provisions at clause 6 shall apply. For the avoidance of doubt, under no circumstances may a Passenger resell a Holiday for a sum greater than the full price paid for the Holiday by the Passenger. 5.10 A Passenger’s request to transfer from one Holiday to another (distinct from substituting another Passenger into a Booking) may, in FOCL’s sole discretion, be accepted by FOCL on one occasion per Booking, provided it is made more than 90 days before the Departure Date, or 180 days before the Departure Date for a Long Cruise. Where FOCL consents to such a transfer, the terms and conditions that are relevant at the time of the transfer shall apply, and a £100 per person administrative fee will be chargeable on the completion of the transfer. The applicable terms and conditions may be different from those that applied at the time of the original Booking. Any Special Offers or discounts that applied to the original Holiday will not apply to the alternative Holiday. 5.11 Where a transfer to an alternative Holiday is accepted by FOCL, any payments received in respect of the original Holiday shall be held as the initial deposit payable upon booking for the alternative Holiday, even where they exceed the figure that would otherwise be payable as a deposit for the alternative Holiday under these Conditions. Where the sum payable for the alternative Holiday would be higher at the time the alteration is made, the Passenger must pay the balance due to FOCL immediately upon demand. 5.12 Where the alternative Holiday is cancelled by you, FOCL will be entitled to retain as a non-refundable deposit the higher of: 5.12.1 any non-refundable deposit paid for the Holiday; 5.12.2 any non-refundable deposit paid for the alternative Holiday; and 5.12.3 any non-refundable deposit payable in accordance with clause 6.1 below. 5.13 Where a request is made to alter a Booking to an alternative Holiday within 90 days of the Departure Date, or 180 days for a Long Cruise, or a request is made to alter a Booking more than once, or where FOCL has refused a request to transfer from one Holiday to another, this will be treated as a cancellation and FOCL will be entitled to retain a non-refundable deposit in accordance with clause 6 below. 5.14 If an alteration would result in a reduction of the Price of the Holiday of more than 25% then this will also be treated as a cancellation by you and the provisions of clause 6 will apply. 5.15 Where a Passenger has made a Booking directly with FOCL, such Booking may not be transferred to a travel

agent unless the following criteria all apply: 5.15.1 The Booking was made on-board an FOCL vessel; 5.15.2 The Booking is transferred on-board an FOCL vessel; and 5.15.3 The travel agent to whom the Booking is transferred is approved by FOCL at the time of the transfer.

6. Cancellation by you 6.1 You may cancel your Holiday by providing formal notice to FOCL, either in writing or verbally to the Guest Services department pending verification of having authority to do so, subject to clause 6.3 below: 6.1.1 Where you cancel 91 days or more before the Departure Date, FOCL will be entitled to retain the nonrefundable deposit in accordance with clause 4.1 above. 6.1.2 Where you cancel 90 days or fewer before the Departure Date, FOCL will be entitled to retain a portion of the Price in accordance with the following scale. These percentages reflect a conservative pre-estimate of losses and costs likely to be incurred by FOCL as a result of the cancellation and cost to FOCL of remarketing the Holiday. The figures expressed below include any nonrefundable deposit paid in accordance with clause 4.1: Number of days Percentage of price FOCL will be before departure entitled to retain if the cruise is cancelled by you 90-57 days

60%*

56-42 days

75%*

85%*

15 to 0 days

100%

*100% of the Price will be retained in the event of the cancellation of a Saver Fare Booking and Bookings made subject to certain other Special Offers (see 6.6 below). 6.2 The effective date of cancellation is the date of receipt by FOCL of written notice that the Passenger wishes to cancel. For the avoidance of doubt, these charges will apply whatever the reason for your cancellation, including illness, incapacity, death or any other intervening event. It is your responsibility to ensure that you have insurance in place that covers these eventualities. Where you cancel a Booking, FOCL will make 6.3 reasonable endeavours to resell the Holiday: 6.3.1 You recognise that it may not be viable for FOCL to attempt to do so in certain circumstances, for example where the Departure Date is imminent. 6.3.2 You additionally recognise that, in order to resell, FOCL may, at its absolute discretion, remarket the cruise at a discounted rate. 6.3.3 FOCL will not be regarded as having successfully resold a Holiday until all tickets of a comparable level and characteristics to the resold Holiday (e.g. in terms of price, level of cabin and other additional elements included in the Booking) have sold out for that particular Holiday at the Date of Departure. 6.3.4 Where a Holiday has been successfully resold, FOCL may, at its reasonable discretion, refund all or part of the Price paid by you. In all circumstances, any such refund will be subject to reasonable deductions, for example in order to account for the cost of remarketing and rebooking the Holiday and to account for any shortfall between the Price paid by you and the price at which the cruise is resold. Cancellation costs may be insurable. It is the 6.4 Passenger’s responsibility to make any such claim under the terms of his/her insurance policy. Holiday insurance premiums cannot be refunded in the event of cancellation. 6.5 If you have already started your Holiday but are unable to continue for any reason whatsoever including repatriation, illness, incapacity, death, or any unavoidable and extraordinary event, FOCL may resell any unused services or accommodation without offering any refund to you. 6.6 Where FOCL offers certain Special Offers, it reduces its margin on that Holiday and loses the opportunity to sell the Holiday at full price. Therefore, special terms and conditions apply to Special Offers in order to make them commercially viable for FOCL. Unless otherwise indicated, and subject to clause 6.3 above, no refund will be available in the event of the cancellation by you of any Special Offer. 6.7 No refund will be available for pre-cruise and postcruise land tours where these are cancelled by you 90 days or fewer before your Departure Date. If cancelled 91 days or more before the Departure Date, a nonrefundable deposit will apply in accordance with clause 4.1 above. You will also be responsible for paying on demand any unrecoverable sum paid or payable to a third party supplier in connection with the cancelled pre-cruise or post-cruise land tour. 6.8 Where you cancel a Fly-Cruise (or the flight element of a Fly-Cruise), the airline’s cancellation terms will apply to the cancellation and you will be liable for any costs that result, in addition to any cancellation charges due to FOCL

for the cruise and other elements of the cancelled Holiday, in accordance with this clause 6.

7. Alteration and cancellation by FOCL 7.1 FOCL reserves the right to cancel any Holiday at any time on the giving of written notice to the Passenger. In any such instance the terms of the ABTA Code of Conduct will apply. Your statutory rights remain unaffected. 7.2 Where before the Departure Date it becomes impossible to provide your Holiday (even by making changes) due to a Force Majeure Event or any other circumstances beyond FOCL’s control that significantly constrain their ability to deliver your Holiday, then FOCL will give notice of cancellation of the Holiday as soon as practicable and you will be offered (where possible) the choice of a replacement Holiday of equivalent value or a refund of all monies paid under the Booking. 7.3 FOCL has the right up to 90 days before the Departure Date to cancel any Booking or any part of a Holiday because the minimum number of Passengers needed has not been achieved. 7.4 Published Holiday details in FOCL brochures and any Holiday details notified to you at the time of placing your Booking may be subject to alteration at any time after the Booking has been concluded, where this becomes necessary as a result of events, changes in circumstances or other factors that have occurred or arisen since the Holiday was originally planned by FOCL. FOCL’s priority is to provide you with the Holiday you booked as far as possible for its duration. Alteration may include (without limitation) omitting, substituting or adding ports of call, restricting the availability of any on-board facilities and services available at any time or otherwise changing the itinerary (including routing of the cruise vessel or flights and port of embarkation and disembarkation), schedule, flight class, cruise vessel or other arrangements that form part of the Holiday. Alteration of the Holiday may (without limitation) be made of necessity in the interests of promoting the health, safety, comfort or enjoyment of Passengers or the operational efficiency of the Holiday, for example (but not limited to) the occurrence of a security risk or infectious illness, or any Force Majeure Event. Wherever possible, details of any alterations will be communicated to you in writing. Alterations of the nature described in this clause 7.4 will not amount to significant alterations of the Holiday. Your statutory rights remain unaffected. 7.5 Where after the Departure Date it becomes necessary to curtail your Holiday due to a Force Majeure Event, FOCL or any other party acting as operator will make suitable alternative arrangements to provide a continuation of the Holiday at no extra cost to you. If this is not possible, equivalent transport will be provided back to the place of departure or on to the final destination and where the Holiday cannot reasonably be continued, then for each whole day lost, you will be reimbursed an amount equivalent to the daily cost of the cruise part of the Holiday. 7.6 It is a condition of the Booking that the Passenger will act in good faith towards FOCL at all times. In the event that the Passenger breaches this clause 7.6, FOCL shall have the right to treat the Booking as cancelled by you, and to terminate the Booking immediately. 7.7 Where delay occurs during the Holiday as a result of a breach of these Conditions by FOCL or any other party acting as operator on FOCL’s behalf, then alternative arrangements will be made where required and where possible to ensure the continuation of the Holiday. 7.8 In the event of cancellation, alteration or delay (including prolongation of the Holiday) FOCL will not be responsible for losses arising from individual circumstances or arrangements (for example travel and accommodation booked separately to the Holiday).

8. Conduct, safety and security 8.1 If it appears, in FOCL’s complete discretion, during or after the booking process, embarkation or during your Holiday, that you are, or may become, for any reason unfit to travel or that you may endanger or prejudice the health or safety or comfort of you or anyone else, because of, for example, but not limited to: 8.1.1 aggressive or abusive behaviour; 8.1.2 reasons of personal hygiene; 8.1.3 accident or medical incident prior to departure, including on the way to the port or in the terminal that needs medical attention ashore; or 8.1.4 failure to comply with on-board policies including (without limitation) the Guest Conduct Policy (see clause 8.8 below & FOCL Website), Smoking Policy (see clause 17) and Alcohol Policy (see clause 18), then a duly authorised representative of FOCL or any other party involved in the supply of services under your Booking may deal with you as they consider necessary. Such steps may include refusing to confirm your Booking, cancelling an existing Booking, banning you from future

travel, transferring you from one Cabin or seat to another or restraining, confining or refusing to embark you or requiring you to disembark at any port or place. In such circumstances, you will not be entitled to any refund, compensation or contribution to or reimbursement of travel costs or expenses of any kind and you shall be liable to pay any fines, losses, compensation or other amount due to any third party. In no circumstances shall FOCL have any liability for prevention of boarding of any form of transport due to a decision made by any third party. 8.2 FOCL and any other party with responsibility for Passengers’ safety during a Holiday will have the right to make, enforce and change (without prior notice) rules and policies for the conduct of Passengers relating to matters including, but not limited to, dress, behaviour, alcohol and food. 8.3 No animals, except registered Assistance Dogs (see clause 13 below), dangerous articles, or controlled or prohibited substances may be brought on the Holiday and/ or vessel. 8.4 For safety and security reasons it may be necessary for servants or agents of FOCL to search Passengers, their Cabins or their luggage. You agree to allow this to take place when authorised by the Captain or a security or other officer of the vessel, and to follow any instructions or orders in this regard. 8.5 You are responsible for any loss or damage caused by you or your personal possessions during the Holiday to any property, person, third party or to FOCL, no matter how that loss or damage is caused. FOCL reserves the right to demand immediate reimbursement / compensation for any loss or damage caused by you and/or to require a reasonable sum to be placed on account while the value of any loss or damage is determined. 8.6 You confirm your agreement to the use of CCTV throughout all FOCL vessels and in public areas at ports and terminals. This is for the safety and security of Passengers and crew. CCTV images may be retained by FOCL for a reasonable period of time and you acknowledge that CCTV images may be used as evidence in any claims brought against FOCL by you or against you by FOCL. 8.7 FOCL reserves the right to restrict the use of recording and photographic equipment by Passengers, where, in FOCL’s sole discretion, its use might be perceived as invasive or inappropriate to FOCL, it’s Passengers, crew or any third party or where such activity might amount to a breach of copyright or other intellectual property rights of any person at any time. FOCL reserves the right to confiscate such equipment from Passengers, to be returned at the end of a cruise. In the event that a Passenger refuses to surrender such equipment upon demand, FOCL may rely on clause 8.1 above and require you to disembark the vessel. 8.8 Passengers must read and comply with our Guest Conduct Policy which is available on the FOCL Website and in all Cabins on FOCL vessels and, together with these Conditions, forms part of your Booking. 8.9 When in port, you are responsible for ensuring that you embark the vessel in advance of the advertised sailing times. FOCL will not delay the vessel’s departure should you fail to embark the vessel at the correct time. In such circumstances where you fail to embark the vessel prior to sailing, you will not be entitled to any refund, compensation, or contribution to or reimbursement of travel costs or expenses, and you will be liable to pay any fines, losses and/or immigration costs.

9. Liability 9.1 FOCL and any other party that may be involved in the supply of services in connection with your Holiday (including, without limitation Third Party Service Providers, FOCL’s agents and employees, sub-contractors, medical staff and the owners and crew of any vessels involved in performing the services) shall be entitled, to the fullest extent possible, to benefit from the rights, defences, immunities and exclusions and limitations of liability in these Conditions and any conventions, regulations, rules, directives, laws, statutes, statutory instruments and/or other relevant forms of regulatory codification (whether international, national, local or otherwise) that might apply from time to time, including (without limitation) those relating to: 9.1.1 carriage by sea (e.g. the Athens Convention 1974 (as amended) (“the Athens Convention”)); 9.1.2 air (e.g. the Warsaw Convention 1929 (as amended by The Hague Protocol 1955) and/or the Montreal Convention 1999); 9.1.3 inland waterways (e.g. the Strasbourg Convention (as defined below)); and 9.1.4 hotel stays (e.g. the Paris Convention 1962). Nothing in these Conditions shall be deemed as a waiver thereof. In no circumstances will the total liability of such parties to you exceed that of FOCL’s liability to you under the Booking.

9.2 FOCL’s liability for any act, omission or other occurrence that falls outside the scope of the Conventions will be limited to the greatest extent permitted by law, save that FOCL’s liability for the loss of any money, jewellery, valuables or medication shall not exceed £250 per Passenger per Holiday. 9.3 Passengers are advised, wherever possible, not to pack money, jewellery, other valuables or medication in their luggage and must ensure that their personal possessions and valuables are with them at all times (subject to any laws and regulations that might prohibit this, e.g. restrictions on the carriage of liquids in hand luggage on-board flights). 9.4 Save as provided otherwise in these Conditions, where arrangements are made for the transportation of Passengers, their luggage and personal property, accommodation and other requirements arising from time to time that are ancillary to the cruise element of the Holiday, any terms and conditions, rules and regulations of airlines, owners or operators of any other ship and/or other providers of services such as transfer operators, hotels, etc. shall apply to the provision of the service in question, along with these Conditions. Where there is a conflict between these Conditions and any other terms that might apply pursuant to this clause 9.4, these Conditions will prevail. 9.5 River Cruise Bookings will be subject to the same limits of liability for loss or damage to luggage as ocean cruises, notwithstanding that the Athens Convention may not apply on its own terms. 9.6 FOCL accepts no liability for loss or damage caused to you where such loss or damage: 9.6.1 is attributable to your error or omission; or 9.6.2 is unforeseeable and unavoidable and attributable to any third party provider of services whose services are not part of the Holiday; or 9.6.3 is due to unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances including, but not limited to, a Force Majeure Event or an event which FOCL or another operator or supplier of services could not reasonably be expected to foresee or forestall including but not limited to unusual weather, sea or river conditions, including unusually high or low water. 9.7 FOCL accepts no liability in respect of arrangements or commitments made by you or on your behalf that are not part of the Holiday, including, but not limited to arrangements that you make directly, or via FOCL acting as agent only, with a service provider other than FOCL. 9.8 FOCL shall not in any circumstances be liable to a Passenger for any loss or anticipated loss of profits, loss of revenue, loss of use, loss of contract or other opportunity nor for any other consequential or indirect loss or damage. 9.9 All carriage (by land, air, sea and inland waterway) is subject to the conditions of carriage of the actual operator / carrier. These may limit or exclude the operator’s liability. Save as otherwise provided in these Conditions, the operator’s / carriers’ conditions of carriage are expressly incorporated into the Booking and are deemed to be expressly accepted by the Passenger at the time of the Booking. FOCL shall be entitled to benefit from any limits or exclusions of liability contained within and under no circumstances shall FOCL’s liability exceed that of the operator / carrier in question. Copies of any applicable operator / carrier terms and conditions are available on request from FOCL. Where there is a conflict between these Conditions and any other terms that might apply pursuant to this clause 9.9, these Conditions will prevail. This clause 9.9 does not apply to River Cruises. 9.10 In the event that an unplanned stay of one night or more becomes necessary as a result of a cancellation or delay, FOCL shall use reasonable endeavours to provide adequate accommodation either on-board or ashore, and transport to and from the port terminal and place of accommodation. FOCL reserves the right, at its discretion, to limit its expenditure in these circumstances to EUR 125 per Passenger per night, for a maximum of five nights (excluding transport costs). Passengers may be required to pay any remaining balance in the cost of accommodation.

to provide a full response within 28 days. 10.2.3 If the parties cannot reach an agreement by engaging in the steps set out above, the Passenger and FOCL agree to refer the matter to ABTA’s Dispute Resolution Scheme. 10.2.4 If the parties fail to reach an agreement having exhausted the steps set out above then they may refer the dispute to arbitration, subject to the rules of the ABTA Arbitration Scheme, or issue Court proceedings. 10.3 In the case of any claim for loss, damage or delay to luggage please note that: 10.3.1 it is assumed that luggage has been delivered undamaged to you unless notice is given immediately to FOCL; and 10.3.2 you must immediately claim against the carrier or carriers directly responsible for performing the carriage where the loss or damage happened, when the loss or damage becomes apparent, and in any event within 15 days from the date of redelivery, or when redelivery should have taken place; and 10.3.3 if you wish to make a claim against FOCL, you must follow the dispute resolution procedure at clause 10.2 above; and 10.4 You may be required to assign your rights against any carrier or other third party to FOCL as a condition of any settlement entered into between FOCL and you. 10.5 Any settlement paid by FOCL will be reduced: 10.5.1 to take into account any contributory negligence of the Passenger; and 10.5.2 by the maximum deductible payable under any applicable Convention. 10.6 Unless a longer period is provided for by force of law, any claim shall be time barred if proceedings are not issued within 2 years of the end of the Holiday (i.e. the date that the vessel berths for disembarkation or for any Fly Cruise, the date that the return flight lands at the arrival airport). 10.7 No claims or complaints will be considered by FOCL unless all on-board debts have first been settled in full, in accordance with clause 3.8 above. 10.8 In circumstances where, in FOCL’s sole discretion, the commercial relationship between FOCL and you has irrevocably broken down for any reason, FOCL will be entitled (but not obliged) to exercise its right to cancel any future bookings in accordance with clause 7 above and to refuse to take any Bookings from you in future. 10.9 Third Party Services do not form part of your Booking with FOCL and FOCL is not responsible for any act or omission of Third Party Service Providers. However, as part of its commitment to customer service, FOCL will, at its discretion, take reasonable steps to assist Passengers with issues arising with Third Party Service Providers, subject to the following procedure being followed: 10.9.1 Where possible, you must discuss with the Third Party Service Provider any issues which could give rise to a complaint, as soon as practicable and before escalating your complaint through other channels. 10.9.2 If the issue is not resolved immediately, it should be notified to an FOCL representative on board the vessel, hotel management or the FOCL Destinations Manager. 10.9.3 If the matter cannot be swiftly resolved by following the steps above, the Passenger must address their complaint to FOCL in writing as soon as possible after the cause of the complaint has arisen. 10.9.4 FOCL will take reasonable steps to assist the Passenger to resolve their complaint, either by liaising with the Third Party Service Provider on the Passenger’s behalf, or by putting the Passenger in touch with the Third Party Service Provider. 10.9.5 If these steps do not lead to a resolution acceptable to the Passenger, then it is the Passenger’s responsibility to pursue the matter further against the Third Party Service Provider directly. 10.9.6 For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this clause 10.9 shall be taken as an admission or acceptance of liability by FOCL for the circumstances giving rise to a complaint against a Third Party Service Provider.

10. Claims

11. Medical assistance

10.1 FOCL will respond to issues raised by Passengers in accordance with ABTA’s Code of Conduct. 10.2 Where an issue arises that could give rise to a complaint against FOCL, you agree to comply with the following dispute resolution procedure. Please see clause 10.9 below for the procedure that applies in relation to Third Party Service Providers. FOCL will not consider any claim for compensation from third parties (including lawyers) unless and until sub-clauses 10.2.1 to 10.2.4 below have been fully complied with: 10.2.1 You must discuss any issues which could give rise to a complaint as soon as practicable with the vessel or hotel management, airline staff or other supplier of the services concerned. 10.2.2 If the matter is not rectified to your satisfaction, you must address any complaint to FOCL in writing within 14 days of the conclusion of the Holiday. FOCL will endeavour

11.1 All Passengers must ensure that they have travel insurance that provides adequate cover taking into account their personal circumstances; that all known medical conditions have been declared to their insurers; and that, where necessary, special provision has been made for any medical condition they have, to ensure that they are not left in a position where significant uninsured medical expenses might be incurred. 11.2 Each vessel (River Cruise vessels excluded - see clause 21) has on board a qualified doctor and a medical centre equipped for first aid and minor conditions only. You hereby acknowledge and accept that the medical centre is not equipped like a land based hospital. The medical staff do not have expertise in any specialist fields of medicine, including paediatrics. Neither FOCL, the on board medical staff nor the carrier shall have any liability for losses suffered (including through illness, injury and/or death) as a result

186

of a medical condition, the treatment of which requires expertise beyond that held by the on board medical staff, or requires specialist equipment or medication beyond that which is carried on board. 11.3 Passengers acknowledge that if the risk of them requiring specialist or emergency treatment is elevated to any material extent (however slight) by comparison to a person without the condition in question, then they must not embark the vessel, as to do so could put them and/ or other Passengers at risk. FOCL accepts no liability for Passengers that breach this clause 11.3, and any Passenger embarking on a cruise with such a medical condition does so entirely at their own risk. 11.4 FOCL will afford Passengers assistance during their holiday if they suffer illness, personal injury or death requiring medical and/or overseas repatriation services. Such assistance may take the form of a point of contact within FOCL’s medical repatriation team, and initial advice and guidance where appropriate, subject to FOCL’s complete discretion. Where a Passenger lacks the capacity to decide on any assistance to be provided or where, in FOCL’s sole discretion, the provision of assistance is necessary to ensure the safety of either the Passenger, other Passengers or any other person, the Passenger gives FOCL irrevocable authority to organise any necessary assistance on their behalf. All expenses (including without limitation those associated with medical treatment, repatriation expenses, travel expenses and the cost of local assistance e.g. from a port agent) incurred in providing assistance to Passengers under this clause 11.4 shall be for the Passenger’s account and the Passenger hereby indemnifies FOCL in full for such expenses and undertakes to repay them on demand (whether or not the Passenger has insurance cover for some or all of the expenses). The Passenger gives FOCL authority to contact any third party including their general practitioner or other medical practitioner and/or insurers to obtain any necessary information or documentation relevant. 11.5 It is a Passenger’s obligation and responsibility to seek medical assistance if necessary during the Holiday and the Passenger will be solely responsible for paying for any on board medical services including but not limited to any medical treatments provided and repatriation services, which will be charged on the same basis as private medical health care. Medical services provided on board are outside the scope of the UK National Health Service. 11.6 In the event of illness or accident, Passengers may have to be landed ashore for medical treatment and FOCL reserves the right to charge Passengers an assistance fee, in return for services provided. Should a Passenger decline to pay the assistance fee, then they will be liable for making all of their own arrangements associated with their medical disembarkation or repatriation, for example but not limited to, transport, hotel arrangements, contact with their insurance company and setting up their initial case, etc. with no assistance from FOCL or their agents. 11.7 Medical facilities and standards vary from port to port. FOCL makes no representation and accepts no responsibility for the quality of any medical facilities or treatments at any port of call or at the place at which the Passenger is landed. Passengers acknowledge that it is not possible for FOCL’s employees, servants or agents to remain ashore to provide assistance when a cruise is scheduled to depart from a port of call, nor is it possible for any departure to be delayed. Where possible, FOCL’s head office will provide Passengers with reasonable discretionary support and assistance after leaving the vessel. However, FOCL has no contractual responsibility for this and FOCL recommends you liaise directly with your insurers for assistance. 11.8 The fitness of any Passenger to travel or continue their Holiday shall be a matter for FOCL and the on board doctor to determine at their sole discretion. The vessel’s doctor has the authority to require a Passenger to remain in their Cabin or to issue other orders that are reasonable and proportionate to protect the health, safety and comfort of the Passenger and others on board the vessel. 11.9 In the event that a Passenger fails to remain in their Cabin or to comply with any other instruction given by the vessel’s doctor pursuant to clause 11.8, FOCL shall be entitled to require that Passenger to disembark the vessel at any port of call, and shall have no liability whatsoever to that Passenger for costs incurred as a result (including, without limitation, by way of any refund of the Price paid by the Passenger for the Holiday, accommodation costs or further travel costs). FOCL also reserves the right to cancel and/or refuse to accept any future Bookings from the Passenger in question. 11.10 FOCL and/or any relevant Third Party Service Providers and/or the health authorities at any departure port shall be entitled to administer a public health questionnaire. The Passenger shall supply accurate information, including in relation to any symptoms of any illness experienced, including but not limited to gastrointestinal illness and other similar conditions. Any refusal by a Passenger to

complete a questionnaire will result in denied boarding. 11.11 Some foods served on board FOCL’s vessels and at other times during your holiday may cause allergic reactions and/or illness in those with certain allergies or intolerances. FOCL can provide details of ingredients of food available on board on request but it is the Passenger’s responsibility to bring any allergies and intolerances to FOCL’s attention at the time of Booking as if it was a Material Fact in accordance with clause 22, and before you eat or drink anything during your Holiday. FOCL excludes liability for any loss suffered (including by way of illness, injury or death) as a result of a food allergy or intolerance experienced by you or any other Passenger during the Holiday, to the greatest extent permitted by law. 11.12 Passengers accept that in accordance with clause 13, Assistance Dogs (defined below) may be present on board FOCL vessels. It is the Passenger’s responsibility to bring any allergy or intolerance to dogs to FOCL’s attention at the time of Booking as if it was a Material Fact in accordance with clause 22. FOCL excludes liability for any loss suffered as a result of a dog allergy or intolerance experienced by you or any other Passenger during the Holiday, to the greatest extent permitted by law. 11.13 In the event that a Passenger fails to settle any medical assistance or repatriation costs, FOCL reserves the right without prejudice to any other remedies FOCL may have under these Conditions or otherwise, to cancel any future Bookings the Passenger may have made with FOCL and to offset any sums owed to FOCL by the Passenger against any sums due from FOCL to the Passenger. 11.14 Note the different provisions for River Cruises at clause 21.

12. Mobility and assistance 12.1 Passengers acknowledge that carriage, boarding and disembarking a vessel can be difficult and/or unsafe for anyone with mobility issues and other forms of physical impairment, and those with certain medical conditions, due to the inherent characteristics of vessels, physical requirements of tendering (transfers from ship to shore on-board smaller vessels) and port facilities. The use of a stepped gangway and/or negotiating steep flights of steps and/or unsteady/uneven surfaces may be unavoidable: 12.1.1 Under no circumstances will FOCL’s employees or servants agree to carry or lift Passengers to facilitate embarkation or disembarkation (including for access to flights, shuttle and tour buses and any other service ancillary to the cruise) or at any time while the Passenger is on board (including for access to or out of on board bathing or swimming facilities). 12.1.2 FOCL cannot guarantee the availability of a level overhead walkway at any port on any vessel’s itinerary. 12.1.3 In accordance with EU Regulation EU1177/2010, FOCL reserves the right to refuse carriage and/or embarkation if, in FOCL’s reasonable opinion, the design of the vessel and/or the port infrastructure and/or the nature of a holiday at sea and/or any equipment required by the Passenger would make carriage unsafe or operationally unfeasible, or if carriage or embarkation of the Passenger would risk a breach of maritime safety standards. 12.1.4 It is the Passenger’s responsibility to keep FOCL informed of any issue that poses a difficulty in relation to their mobility and/or physical capability on board, whether this arises before or after the time of booking or during the Holiday. 12.1.5 Where vessel-to-shore tender services are suitable for wheelchair users, only collapsible, lightweight wheelchairs will be permitted. 12.1.6 If a requirement for extra assistance or any other special requirements arise after the Booking has been made then details must be given to FOCL as soon as possible, and in any event, no later than 48hrs prior to departure of the cruise. 12.1.7 Any Passenger refused passage for a reason related to their mobility or physical capability may, having complied with clause 12.1.6, request written confirmation with reasons from FOCL within five (5) working days and may be entitled to an alternative cruise of similar value or reimbursement of the Price. 12.2 FOCL shall make reasonable endeavours to provide any extra assistance where requested. However if such assistance cannot be provided either at all or at a reasonable or proportionate cost, then FOCL reserves the right to deny embarkation and/or to pass such cost onto the Passenger and to treat this as a “cancellation by you” in accordance with clause 6. 12.3 Passengers must read FOCL’s General Mobility Policy which forms part of their Booking (note this does not apply to River Cruises) and is available on request and on the FOCL Website. If you have been asked to complete a General Mobility Questionnaire, you must return this at least 90 days before the Departure Date, or if booking within 90 days of the Departure Date, within seven (7) days of Booking. Failure to do so may result in a delay to the

release of your tickets and/or to you being denied boarding. These circumstances will be treated as a “cancellation by you” in accordance with clause 6. 12.4 If your booking is made less than seven (7) days before the Departure Date, you will be expected to provide necessary information required to complete a General Mobility Questionnaire at the time of booking. If you fail to do so, FOCL reserves the right to refuse your Booking. 12.5 FOCL’s employees, servants and Third Party Service Providers are not trained to provide social or regular nursing care or supervision to Passengers. FOCL does not agree to provide such care under the terms of your Booking. If you require specific/extra assistance, FOCL reserves the right to require a person to accompany you who is able to provide such assistance and/or care. FOCL reserves the right to request confirmation from the accompanying Passenger that they are able to provide such support and assistance. 12.6 FOCL reserves the right to refuse embarkation or require Passengers to disembark the vessel if their presence on board the vessel poses a risk to the health, safety or comfort of themselves and/or other Passengers, including in circumstances where such risk arises from the unavailability of extra assistance on board. If FOCL refuses embarkation or requires the Passenger to disembark the vessel, then this will be treated as a “cancellation by you” in accordance with clause 6. 12.7 Any Passengers requiring the use of a mobility scooter, wheelchair or other similar mobility aid (“Mobility Aid”), must advise FOCL of this upon booking. Capacity for guests requiring Mobility Aids on board is limited by the vessel’s safety plan which has been prepared in accordance with IMO/SOLAS Regulations (“Safety Plan”). Failure to give sufficient notice of the need to bring a Mobility Aid on board will result in the Passenger being refused embarkation. This will be treated as a “cancellation by you” in accordance with clause 6. 12.8 In the event that the need arises for a Passenger to use a Mobility Aid during a cruise, this will only be permitted in the event that the limits under the vessel’s Safety Plan (or any regulations that might apply) relating to the use of Mobility Aids have not been reached for that particular cruise. If such limits have been reached, FOCL or any other operator shall be entitled to require the Passenger to disembark the vessel at the next port of call, and shall have no liability whatsoever to the Passenger for any costs incurred as a result, including without limitation accommodation, flight and further travel costs. 12.9 Any Passenger using a Mobility Aid on board a vessel is responsible for operating it in a safe and appropriate manner. Due care and attention must be given to other Passengers and the user of the Mobility Aid will be fully liable for any damage or personal injury (whether to the user of the Mobility Aid or to other Passengers or crew) caused by such use. Passengers using Mobility Aids are also responsible for ensuring they hold the appropriate insurance for use of the Mobility Aid during their Holiday. All Mobility Aids must be stored in the Passenger’s cabin when not in use. 12.10 Passengers with any impairment to their hearing or sight must provide FOCL with full details at the time of booking so that appropriate arrangements can be made for their holiday, and keep FOCL advised of any changes prior to departure. At the time of embarkation and throughout their holiday, visually or hearing impaired Passengers must either: 12.10.1 be capable of safely moving around the vessel unassisted, or with an Assistance Dog (where permitted under these terms and conditions); or 12.10.2 be accompanied by an able bodied companion, whose assistance means that they can safely move around the vessel. 12.11 If, in FOCL’s reasonable opinion, this clause is not fully complied with or a Passenger’s presence on board the vessel will pose a risk to the Safety Plan, FOCL will be entitled to refuse embarkation or require the visually or hearing impaired Passenger to disembark the vessel. If FOCL refuses embarkation or requires the visually or hearing impaired Passenger to disembark the vessel, then this will be treated as a “cancellation by you” in accordance with clause 6. 12.12 Note the additional provisions for River Cruises at clause 21.5.

13. Assistance dogs 13.1 Subject to the remainder of this clause 13, FOCL is able to accommodate recognised Assistance Dogs on-board its vessels, where this is permitted by law and does not put at risk the health or safety of Passengers, crew or the Assistance Dog in question. Not all Holidays will be suitable for Assistance Dogs and FOCL reserves the right to refuse Booking and/or embarkation of Passengers and their Assistance Dogs, where this is the case. FOCL will provide a full explanation of the reasons for any refusal to embark in these circumstances.

13.2 A Passenger requiring the support of an Assistance Dog must give sufficient notice of such to FOCL at the time of Booking, and will remain fully responsible for their Assistance Dog during the Holiday. 13.3 Carriage of Assistance Dogs on board is subject to compliance with animal health rules and guidelines applicable to the voyage, including in relation to, without limitation: 13.3.1 DEFRA requirements (which can take several weeks to administer); 13.3.2 Vaccinations and pet passports; and 13.3.3 Availability of veterinary services. 13.4 FOCL may require evidence that the Assistance Dog has been appropriately trained.

14. Enjoyment promise 14.1 The Enjoyment Promise excludes pre-cruise stays and Holidays of 4 nights or fewer, and applies only to Bookings made where the Date of Departure is more than 12 weeks after the date of the Booking. The Promise only applies to Passengers who have contracted with FOCL and excludes cruises on vessels operated by FOCL but booked through Tour Operators. 14.2 Should you wish to invoke the Enjoyment Promise, you will need to inform the vessel’s Guest Relations Manager within 48 hours following the vessel’s departure from the original port of embarkation (24 hours for River Cruises). FOCL will arrange and pay for a flight and/or transport back to the UK. FOCL will refund the cruise cost only and will not refund any other costs.

15. Flights 15.1 Prices for Fly-Cruises quoted in any FOCL brochure are inclusive of specially negotiated airfares which are subject to availability. If no aircraft seats are available at the airline’s prices in conjunction with a particular Holiday at the time of Booking then the Fly-Cruise option may be withdrawn or an alternative flight may be offered at an additional cost. Flight upgrades/premium seats for Fly-Cruises are limited in number. They will be allocated at the time of Booking, subject to availability. Aircraft configurations are subject to change and in the event of a flight operator being unable to provide premium seats on any service then any payment of or towards an upgrade supplement will be refunded in full. Note the provisions that apply to deposits for and cancellation of flights and Fly-Cruises at clauses 4 and 6 above. 15.2 All published itineraries are based on current airline schedules or our advised dedicated flying programme at the time of the Booking and may be subject to change at the option of the airline operator prior to the Departure Date. You will be notified of any such changes. Details of which aircraft operator will be used in conjunction with your Holiday, the exact route to be taken and the type of aircraft operated cannot always be given at the time of Booking. 15.3 You will receive confirmation of flight timings and routes with your travel documents, which will be sent out approximately 7 days before the Departure Date. 15.4 If the Booking does not include flights, it is your responsibility to book a suitable flight for and in time for travel to the vessel (including local transfers which the Passenger must arrange). FOCL shall not be responsible for any liabilities or losses arising in respect of flights or transfers arranged by the Passenger. 15.5 It is the sole responsibility of the Passenger to ensure that they check-in on time for the Holiday and any flights to/from the vessel including any interconnecting flights. Flight delays and cancellations are at the Passenger’s sole risk. 15.6 Passengers travelling independently, or via another Organiser, or who have chosen not to use FOCL flights, or to embark/disembark at different ports to the scheduled itinerary, will be required to vacate their Cabin and disembark the Vessel between 0900 to 0930 hours on the morning of disembarkation or earlier if FOCL or the local authorities deem it necessary.

16. Luggage Allowance 16.1 If you are sailing from a UK Port the total luggage allowance is 90kg per Passenger. No one piece should weigh more than 20kg. 16.2 On Fly-Cruises your luggage allowance will be restricted by the airline. It is your responsibility to check the luggage weight allowance restrictions for both your outbound and/or return flights. Any excess luggage charges imposed by the airline providing the flight will be the sole responsibility of the Passenger. 16.3 A passenger’s luggage allowance for River Cruises is one piece of luggage per person, weighing no more than 20kg.

17. Smoking Policy 17.1 Smoking (including electronic cigarettes emitting any vapour, even if only water vapour) is only permitted in certain dedicated external areas of the vessel, including private balconies. Smoking anywhere else is strictly prohibited. Throwing cigarette ends over the side of the vessel is strictly prohibited. 17.2 Any breach of this clause 17 may result in the Passenger being required to disembark the Vessel at the next port of call, without any liability or cost to FOCL.

18. Alcohol policy 18.1 Only alcohol purchased on board the vessel may be consumed on board. Any alcohol not purchased on board will be collected prior to boarding and returned to the Passenger the day before disembarkation. 18.2 The Passenger agrees at all times to drink safely and responsibly for the duration of their Holiday and whilst on board the vessel including during embarkation and disembarkation. 18.3 FOCL, Passengers and any other relevant party responsible for providing services as part of a Holiday must comply at all times (including when on board a vessel outside British waters) with all applicable laws on the sale and purchase of alcohol, including, without limitation, as set out in the Licensing Act 2003. FOCL will not serve alcohol to any person under the age of 18, and no person under the age of 18 may consume alcohol on board a vessel. FOCL may, at its sole discretion, refuse to serve, sell or supply a Passenger with alcohol at any time and for any reason. 18.4 FOCL and any other operator responsible for providing services as part of a Holiday reserve the right, in their sole discretion, to confine Passengers to their Cabin; breathalyse Passengers; take blood samples from Passengers; treat Passengers medically; disable Passengers’ Cabin accounts; require Passengers to leave the vessel at the next port of call (at Passengers’ sole liability and cost); exclude Passengers from future cruises; and/or cancel any Bookings already made by or on behalf of any Passenger, if deemed necessary, as a result of a Passenger’s alcohol consumption and/or any associated behaviour. Where a Passenger is asked to leave the vessel at the next port of call, the Passenger will not, in any circumstances, be entitled to any refund for their Holiday or other compensation whatsoever. 18.5 FOCL and any other provider of services as part of a Holiday reserve the right to charge the Passenger for all costs (including but not limited to any medical costs) and/or damage caused to property resulting from the Passenger’s consumption of alcohol. Such costs and expenses will be payable by the Passenger on demand.

19. Add-ons and special offers 19.1 From time to time, FOCL may offer add-ons to the basic Holiday booked under these Conditions. Addons may include excursions, land programs, tips and gratuities, spa products and shuttle bus tickets. Unless stated otherwise, add-ons will be subject to these Conditions. However, additional and/or alternative terms and conditions may apply to certain add-ons and will be accessible on the FOCL Website. Add-ons may be subject to an extra charge. 19.2 FOCL may, from time to time, make available Special Offers. These Conditions shall apply to such Special Offers unless otherwise stated. In the event of a conflict between the terms of the Special Offer and these Conditions, the terms of the Special Offer shall prevail. 19.3 The “All-Inclusive Drinks Package” shall include, where possible, selected beers and ciders, house wines and spirits, the Cocktail of the Day, draught soft drinks and mineral or spring water by the glass. Passengers who purchase the All-Inclusive Drinks Package can also save 50% off any drinks not included within the Package, with the exclusion of Champagne, dessert, special selection and sparkling wines, and hot drinks served from the Bookmark Cafe. House spirits will be served in single measures and one drink is to be ordered per person, per transaction. For the avoidance of doubt, any Passenger entitled to the All-Inclusive Drinks Package must order each drink for themselves. The quantity of drinks that FOCL can carry on board any vessel is limited by the size of the vessel and it is possible that certain drinks included within the All-Inclusive Drinks Package may be unavailable from time to time, in which case the Passenger shall not be entitled to any refund. 19.4 The “Dining Drinks Package” available on FOCL’s River Cruises includes only a choice of red and white quality house wines by the glass, European lager and bitter (300ml servings) and selected branded bottled soft drinks. 19.5 Passengers may bring bicycles with them on board any cruise vessel, subject strictly to the terms of the FOCL

188

Cycle Policy, a copy of which can be found on the FOCL Website. Passengers should note in particular: 19.5.1 All bicycles are brought on board entirely at the Passenger’s risk and FOCL excludes all liability for loss, damage and/or injury sustained or suffered by the Passenger, any property or third party (including other Passengers and crew), of whatever nature, to the greatest extent permitted by law. 19.5.2 Passengers will be liable for any loss, damage and/or injury caused by any bicycle that they have brought on board a vessel, at any time throughout the Holiday (including during any shore excursion), including, without limitation, damage caused to the vessel, its fixtures and fittings. 19.5.3 All bicycles brought on board must be of a fold-up or collapsible design, in a bicycle bag, and brought to the attention of FOCL at check-in. 19.5.4 Passengers must carry their bicycle on and off the vessel themselves and store it in their cabins. FOCL is unable to offer any additional assistance in either regard. All bicycles being carried on and off the vessel must be in a bicycle bag. 19.5.5 FOCL reserves the right to refuse to allow a bicycle on board a vessel, without explanation, and to restrict the dis/embarkation or use of bicycles at certain ports and destinations for health and safety reasons.

20. Employees, servants, subcontractors and third party service providers 20.1 The liability of FOCL’s employees, servants, agents, sub-contractors and Third Party Service Providers and the owner and crew of any vessel that arises in connection with the provision of any Holiday is set out to its complete extent within these Conditions. 20.2 FOCL exercises reasonable skill and care in the selection of Third Party Service Providers. However, it has no direct control over the Third Party Service Providers in the performance of their services. FOCL’s liability for loss, damage and injury incurred by the Passenger as a result of the act or omission, whether negligent or otherwise, of any Third Party Service Provider, is excluded to the maximum extent permitted by law. 20.3 In assessing performance and/or liability of any Third Party Service Provider, local laws and regulations will apply. Please also refer to the Shore Tour ‘Important Information’ which can be viewed on the FOCL Website and appear in the Tour Programme. 20.4 Where Third Party Services (including, without limitation, the provision of bicycles by the operator of a River Cruise) are available during a Holiday, they are not part of the Booking, unless otherwise notified by FOCL. Where FOCL makes available Third Party Services, it does so as agent for the operator of the Third Party Services and any amount paid is not part of the Price, whether or not the Third Party Services are booked or paid for at the same time as, or before, or during the Holiday. FOCL’s liability to Passengers for Third Party Services organised on this basis is excluded to the greatest extent permitted by law. However, should FOCL, its employees, servants, agents or sub-contractors, the owner or operator of the vessel or any other person involved in the supply of services in connection with the Holiday be deemed to have any liability in connection with such Third Party Services, this shall in all cases be subject to these Conditions. 20.5 Tours operate subject to minimum numbers of participants. If any tour cannot operate as a result of low numbers, a refund of any money paid in advance will be made, but otherwise, no compensation shall be payable.

21. River Cruises 21.1 “Strasbourg Convention” means the Strasbourg Convention of 2012 on the Limitation of Liability in Inland Navigation. 21.2 This clause 21 applies to River Cruises only. For the avoidance of doubt, save insofar as it is otherwise indicated, the remainder of these Conditions also apply to River Cruises. In the event of a conflict between this clause 21 and any other provision in these Conditions, this clause 21 shall prevail. 21.3 FOCL do not recommend River Cruises for children under 12 years of age as the facilities on board have not been designed with younger children in mind. All children will be subject to the full adult fare. 21.4 There will be trained first-aiders on board River Cruise vessels. However, there will be no medical centre or medical professionals on board. 21.5 Embarkation and disembarkation of River Cruise vessels can be particularly challenging due to the inherent characteristics of the vessels used for River Cruises and the quays and jetties used. Dis/embarkation may involve traversing other vessels moored parallel to the quay including substantial steps from the quay on to the vessel and on board the vessels themselves. Consequently, River

Cruises cannot be safely accessed by Passengers who rely on wheelchairs or scooters and others with moderate to severe mobility issues. Save insofar as it conflicts with this clause 21, clause 12 above applies. 21.6 All Passengers with any reduced mobility who plan to embark on a River Cruise must provide full details before booking and keep FOCL updated of any changes to their mobility prior to departure of the River Cruise. This is essential to ensure the safety of all Passengers, the crew and the vessel. It is the Passengers’ responsibility to ensure they are physically capable of embarking and disembarking River Cruise vessels before they book a River Cruise Holiday. 21.7 Unusually high or low water conditions may necessitate changes to the itinerary of a River Cruise, dis/re-/embarkation or transfer by means of inland or alternative river transport. The Passenger acknowledges that such circumstances are an inherent part of river cruising and that neither FOCL nor any River Cruise operator shall have any liability should such circumstances arise. 21.8 Clauses 9.9 and 9.10 above do not apply to River Cruises.

22. Material facts 22.1 It is a condition of the Booking that all material facts concerning the Passenger’s fitness or suitability to travel have been disclosed to FOCL as if FOCL was an insurer. A material fact is a fact likely to influence insurers in the acceptance or assessment of insurance (for example, details of your state of health or that of a close relative). Where there is doubt as to whether a fact is ‘material’ then it should be disclosed at the time of booking, including but not limited to any disability, mobility issue, allergy, or any other condition requiring special care, specific assistance, attention or treatment. If any such condition arises after the Booking is concluded then written notice must be given to FOCL as soon as possible and in any event, no later than 48 hours prior to embarkation. FOCL shall make all reasonable endeavours to provide any specified assistance when requested.

23. Personal data 23.1 In order for FOCL to deliver your Holiday, it is necessary for you to provide us with certain personal data. All such data will be handled in accordance with the terms of FOCL’s Booking and Marketing Privacy Notices which form part of your Booking and can be found on the FOCL Website: http://www.fredolsencruises.com/privacy-andcookies-policy. 23.2 Personal details supplied to FOCL may be used for marketing purposes, in accordance with the Marketing Privacy Notice. Marketing communications from FOCL will allow you the opportunity to opt out of further communications.

24. Severability 24.1 The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of these Conditions shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of these Conditions, which shall remain in full force and effect.

25. Rights of third parties 25.1 Unless otherwise stated under these Conditions, a person who is not party to a Booking shall have no rights under or in connection with it by virtue of the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999.

26. Law and jurisdiction 26.1 These Conditions and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them, or their subject matter or formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with English law. 26.2 Subject to clause 10.2 above, the parties irrevocably agree that the courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute or claim that arises out of or in connection with these Conditions, or their subject matter or formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims).

27. Variation 27.1 No variation of these Conditions shall be effective unless in writing and signed by FOCL.

I T ’ S E A SY T O B O O K W I T H F R E D . O L S E N Once you’ve chosen your cruise, you only need to take a few steps before you can begin looking forward to your holiday: 1. W E N E E D J U S T A F E W D E TA I L S T O C O N F I R M YO U R B O O K I N G Your full name as it appears on your passport; date of birth; address; and contact telephone number are all details we’ll need when you book. Please also have this information for any guests travelling with you. 2. D O N ’ T F O R G E T YO U R C R U I S E INSURANCE AND TO CHECK IF VISAS ARE NEEDED Please ensure you have appropriate cruise insurance cover; it’s a mandatory requirement for sailing with us. You can find out a little more on page 177. Visas may be required for your chosen region. We’ve provided some helpful information for this, too, on page 177.

3. N O N - R E F U N DA B L E D E P O S I T All cruises are secured by a non-refundable deposit. This is typically set at 15% of the cruise cost (this varies when booking close to your departure date, and when booking cruises more than 27 nights in duration). 4. W E ’ L L S E N D C O N F I R M AT I O N S T R A I G H T AWAY There’s a little more information we’ll require before you travel, such as your insurance, emergency contact details and passport details, and naturally final payment is needed ahead of your cruise. We’ll send details of this with your confirmation invoice as soon as you make your booking.
