Food & Drink
Do you offer a children's menu and are there high chairs in your restaurants?
In the main restaurants on board we offer a Children's menu featuring a selection of appetising choices for our younger guests.
What are the dining times / restaurant opening hours?
We endeavour to make mealtimes on a Fred. Olsen cruise as flexible as possible - after all, you are on holiday, so you should be able to dine at a time that suits your schedule.
Can I bring my own alcohol on board?
Fred. Olsen does not permit guests to bring their own alcohol on board for consumption.
How much do drinks cost?
Unlike some other cruise lines, we don't charge a small fortune at the bar. We want you to relax and enjoy your holiday, and we know that many of you prefer to have a drink in your hand while making the most of your time away.
What's included in the All Inclusive package?
The Fred. Olsen All Inclusive Upgrade is a great way to save on the cost of your trip. Guests can enjoy a selection of beers, wines, spirits and soft drinks from just £19 per person, per night* (£35 per person, per night on cruises of five nights or less and Speciality Sailings). By upgrading to All Inclusive, you can also treat yourself to premium drinks and cocktails at half price.
What style of dining should I expect on board?
Each of our ships feature a selection of stylish dining venues, all serving a range of indulgent, expertly-prepared dishes. At breakfast, lunch and dinner, you’ll always find delicious treats which will tempt your taste buds. And, as all food is included on your cruise, you can indulge as much or as little as you like.
Do you have a non-alcoholic drinks package?
A selection of soft drinks are available in the All Inclusive package, however we do not offer a non-alcoholic drinks package.
Do your cruises cater for guests with specific dietary requirements?
On board all of our ships, we do our best to accommodate most dietary requests. So, vegetarian, vegan, low fat, low cholesterol, low salt, dairy-free, lactose-free, wheat-free and gluten-free food are all catered for.
What is the premium Traditional Afternoon Tea service?
Nothing beats the quintessential experience of afternoon tea on board a cruise. Guests who take the opportunity to enjoy our premium Traditional Afternoon Tea service will take in views from our stylish Observatory Lounge with musical accompaniment from our on board pianist and other classical musicians. A selection of premium teas from Taylors of Harrogate will be offered, served in porcelain pots, along with elegant finger sandwiches, dainty pastries and warm scones with jam and cream.
