Canaries Escape with the Fred. Olsen Fleet Fiesta with Go Stargazing

The reunion of the Fred. Olsen fleet in Las Palmas promises to be the highlight of this memorable sailing to the Canary Islands and Portugal, bringing with it a unique atmosphere of celebration and camaraderie. Yet beyond this special event, there’s a wealth of relaxation, discovery and adventure to enjoy throughout the voyage.

Soak up welcome winter sunshine on beautiful beaches such as Gran Canaria’s Maspalomas, famed for its sweeping golden dunes, explore the dramatic volcanic landscapes of Lanzarote, and uncover Fred. Olsen’s historic connections with the Canary Islands. Along the way, savour local flavours, from rich Malvasia wines to traditional mojo sauce served with the islands’ famous wrinkled potatoes.

An overnight stay in Madeira offers time to experience the island at a leisurely pace, whether wandering through colourful botanical gardens, exploring scenic levada trails or admiring spectacular Atlantic views. In Portugal, discover Lisbon’s charming streets, iconic yellow trams and delicious pastéis de nata, before calling at Matosinhos, gateway to Porto’s rich culture, historic riverside quarter and world-renowned port wines.

As darkness falls at sea, the experience continues overhead. Guests will be joined by an astronomer from Go Stargazing, offering fascinating talks and guided tours of the night sky, helping you discover constellations, planets and celestial treasures in some of Europe’s darkest maritime skies.

Blending vibrant destinations, rich cultural experiences and unforgettable moments beneath the stars, this cruise offers a journey of discovery both ashore and at sea.
