Bolette, Borealis, Balmoral and Braemar will embark on their respective cruises before coming together at Madeira’s garden island, where passengers will have the chance to join a quayside fiesta or explore the rest of the fleet.
Fred. Olsen's ‘Four Freds in Funchal’ was planned for April 4, 2020 but cancelled due to the pandemic.
A new-look fleet
‘This is set to be an incredible day in our history, as it will be the first time that our new-look fleet will be in port together since we set sail again last summer,’ said Peter Deer, MD, Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines. ‘What better way to mark it than with a celebration with our guests?’
He added, ‘Our teams here are already busy curating a programme of events, and will be working very closely with the team in the Port of Funchal to ensure it is a truly memorable day for all.’
