Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines has once again triumphed at the 'Group Leisure Awards', after being voted 'Best Cruise Line for Groups' by readers of leading travel title, Group Leisure magazine, for a record sixth time! The prestigious award recognises the very best groups cruise experience, from the initial booking process to onboard facilities, and the quality of excursions on offer.
Fred. Olsen was recognised at a special awards ceremony at the Hilton Birmingham Metropole Hotel on 19th October 2016, and beat off stiff competition from other finalists Hurtigruten, Norwegian Cruise Line, The River Cruise Line and Thomson Cruises.
The 'Group Leisure Awards' were first established in 1997, and are voted for by active group travel organisers from sports and social clubs, retired associations, special interest societies and other groups, on what they consider to be the best groups experience across 21 categories.
Ellie Fulcher, Sales Manager Groups at Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, said:
“It is such an honour to have been voted 'Best Cruise Line for Groups' at this year's 'Group Leisure Awards'; it is an excellent publication and we are very proud to be associated with it.
