Established in 1988, the business gathered pace with a series of high-street retail shops in East Anglia, which were later joined by agencies in Dorset and Hampshire. More recently, it has diversified online with the introduction of websites focusing on river cruising, city breaks and even expeditions to Antarctica and the North Pole. This is all provided by the Fred. Holidays brand, which continues to expand its online portfolio with authentic offerings all over the world. Additionally, Fred. Olsen Travel is the UK general sales agents for Star Clippers, Amadeus River Cruises and American Cruise Lines.
