Liverpool - the home of The Beatles - is one of Britain's most iconic and interesting cities.
Spread out over seven hills on the north of the River Tagus, Lisbon is a delightful mix of palaces, art-nouveau cafés, museums, gardens, ancient castles and splendid bridges. Don’t miss a visit to the Centro Commercial Colombo – the biggest shopping mall on the Iberian Peninsula!
Barcelona - Spain's cosmopolitan second city - overflows with interest and its mood is infused with a vibrant Catalan spirit and heritage.
On the Provence coast of the Mediterranean lies historic Toulon.
Known as the “Queen of the Riviera”, Nice is beautiful sun-kissed city that attracts visitors from around the globe.
Discover the many facets of this fascinating principality, home to the world-famous Place du Casino, which has made Monte Carlo "an international byword for the extravagant display and reckless dispersal of wealth".
Best described as glitzy and glamorous, the stunning city of Cannes on the fabulous French Riviera is world-renowned for it's annual film festival, glorious beaches and high-end shopping.
The narrow streets of Mahon have a charming mixture of chic shops, restaurants and bars to be discovered. From here you can discover the beauty of Menorca: the sleepy fishing villages, stunning beaches and Monte Toro, the island’s highest peak.
Cadiz - one of Western Europe's most ancient cities - hugs Andalusia’s sunlit Atlantic coast and is characterised by palm trees, lookout towers and weathered old buildings. Historic and pretty, the city centre is a joy to explore with a fascinating Old Town district containing huge stone walls from the 1500s and a beautifully carved cathedral.

Tour Operator
Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines has defined and refined the cruise experience, and judging by the number of passengers that come back time and again, we seem to have styled it to perfection.
The company originated in Hvitsten, a small town on Oslofjord in Norway, in 1848 when three Olsen brothers – Fredrik Christian, Petter and Andreas – bought their first ships and began an international shipping company.
Now into the fifth generation of the family, they operate companies skilled in various aspects of the cruise and passenger shipping trade as well as aviation, ships’ crewing, shipbuilding and offshore industries.
Aside from the transportation industries, the Fred. Olsen group also has interests in the luxury hotel sector, estate management, property development, and electronics companies.
