Fred Olsen Cruise Lines’ Borealis set sail on first Mystery Cruise

Guests can venture into the unknown as Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines sets sail on its first Mystery Cruise since 2019.
This November, smaller ship Borealis will take guests on an 11-night voyage of adventure from Southampton, with all ports of call a closely guarded secret until the ship’s arrival.
Clare Ward, Commercial and Product Director at Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, said:
“We’re very excited for the return of our Mystery Cruises. We know they are always a fantastic experience for our guests, combining the beauty of cruise travel with the added anticipation of surprise, as they venture into the unknown.
“The sense of anticipation builds from the moment the guest steps foot on board. They’ll have to wait each day to find out whether the Captain is guiding them north or south, perhaps to somewhere they’ve always wanted to visit or an undiscovered gem.
“While the itinerary is a surprise, guests can be certain that the on board experience will be just as they expect with warm, attentive service, delicious cuisine and quality entertainment.”
While on board, guests will have the opportunity to join astronomers from Go Stargazing to view the night skies from the middle of the ocean where there is little light pollution.
In 2025, Borealis will be setting sail on a Mystery Cruise from Portsmouth in November, while Bolette will be departing on a seven-night adventure from Liverpool in December.
Guests can enjoy a free drinks package on Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines’ Mystery Cruises, for all new bookings made by 31stOctober inclusive.
