Entitled ‘Captains in Cádiz’, this get-together will include celebrations and festivities on four special themed cruise itineraries.
Mike Rodwell, managing director of Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, said: 'In July last year, we brought our four ships together for the very first time in Bergen, Norway, and it was one of the most celebrated events that we have held at Fred. Olsen since the shipping line’s inception in 1848. To mark our milestone 170th anniversary in 2018, we will be looking to build upon the tremendous success of our ‘Four Ships in Bergen’ event with ‘Captains in Cádiz’ – so-called because the ships’ Captains will be leading on many of the day’s activities.'
Fred. Olsen has been calling Cádiz since 1997. 'The city is renowned for its historical architecture, warm welcome and generous hospitality. This port’s excellent facilities within the city will allow all four Fred. Olsen ships to berth alongside each other,' added Rodwell.
Fred. Olsen’s new itineraries in Autumn 2018, featuring the ‘Captains in Cádiz’ event, are: Braemar’s 14-night Spain cruise departing Southampton on August 31; Black Watch’s 14-night 'Portuguese Explorer’ cruise, ex Liverpool on September 1; Balmoral’s 14-night Spain & Portugal cruise, ex Newcastle on September 2, and Boudicca’s 15-night 'Island-Hopping to Suez’ fly-cruise, ex Dover on September 5, ending in Aqaba, Jordan.
