Relaxed Cruising, Thoughtfully Included

Enhance Your Cruise with a Drinks Package
For guests who enjoy a wider choice of drinks beyond mealtimes, Fred. Olsen also offers optional drinks packages that can be added to your cruise. These are ideal if you enjoy a pre-dinner aperitif, a relaxed drink in the lounge, or a nightcap after an evening show.
Drinks packages allow you to enjoy a broader selection of beers, wines, spirits and soft drinks across bars and lounges throughout the ship, offering greater flexibility and peace of mind during your voyage.
