Fred Olsen has unveiled a new 87-night cruise, the Amazon and Antarctica Adventure, which will visit 28 ports across 17 countries and five continents. The voyage, aboard the Borealis, departs from Southampton on January 5, 2028, and is priced from £11,499 per person.
First Amazon Cruise in Nine Years
This marks the first time in nine years that Fred Olsen has offered a cruise to the Amazon, and it remains the only cruise line sailing from the UK to do so. The itinerary includes stops in the Canary Islands, Jamaica, Costa Rica, Brazil, Chile, and the Antarctic Peninsula, among others.
The cruise line highlights the wildlife opportunities, stating: "Time ashore brings you closer to lush rainforest, with toucans, butterflies, monkeys and pink river dolphins among the wildlife to look out for."
Pricing and Inclusions
While the price tag is substantial, the cost works out at under £140 per night, including travel, accommodation, full-board dining, selected drinks, and onboard activities such as swimming pools, fitness classes, expert talks, and evening shows.
For those seeking a more budget-friendly option, Ambassador's Caribbean Sunsets and South American Secrets cruise offers 45 nights from £3,233 per person, with 30% off current prices, sailing from London Tilbury in January 2027.
Other Fred Olsen Cruises
Fred Olsen also offers a 98-night World Cruise with Japan and Hawaii, departing January 2027 from £13,999 per person, and a 71-night Exploration of the Mediterranean, departing this September from £9,999 per person.
