Cruise · 10 nights · with Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines
A ten-night Fred. Olsen cruise aboard Bolette from Tenerife to Lisbon and Southampton, with a lively day of gatherings in Las Palmas and visits to Madeira and Portugal’s northern coast.
Highlights
Day of festivities in Las PalmasWith Bolette and Borealis
Visit to Funchal on Madeira Island
Calls in three Canary Islands ports
Two days along the Portuguese coastIncluding Lisbon and Matosinhos
Final call at Southampton
This ten-night cruise with Fred. Olsen’s Bolette sets off from Santa Cruz de Tenerife, looping through the Canary Islands before calling at Funchal on Madeira. Las Palmas hosts a day of festivities where Bolette joins Borealis, a rare chance to catch two sister ships in one port.
From the volcanic sands of Arrecife in Lanzarote to Lisbon’s mix of wide plazas and pastel-hued buildings, the route balances island landscapes with city streets. A call at Matosinhos brings you close to Porto’s neighbours on Portugal’s northern coast, shifting the pace before the ship sails north to Southampton.
The cruise tackles some distance, so expect a couple of longer sea days. The Canary Islands’ winter sunshine is a draw, and Madeira’s laurel forest hints at a very different Atlantic island. The route closes where it starts, in Tenerife’s capital, with its blend of colonial and modern flair just steps from the sea.
