Sail and save this summer

DFDS Seaways has designed a range of special offers tailored for couples and families meaning you can set sail to Europe for less this summer. A Mini Cruise during July and August provides the perfect short break option and a great way to get away for less during the summer.

For couples travelling overnight from Newcastle or Harwich your break begins the moment you step onboard. A DFDS Seaways Mini Cruise provides the perfect relaxing break with your partner this summer and can take you to the cosmopolitan city of Amsterdam where you can explore its world–famous canals, or Stavanger and Bergen – Norway’s two stunning cities by the sea.

Each of these cities are also ideal for family breaks away. Children can keep themselves amused onboard with their own play area, videos, ball pool and Pirate’s Club with treasure hunts and competitions. If you’re looking for an entertaining short break with the family, DFDS Seaways offers something different to do with the kids this summer.

Mini Cruise breaks with your Loved One

A short break to Amsterdam with your loved one is a wonderful way to explore this sophisticated city. Wander around the pretty canals and visit the main attractions to find out why Amsterdam is one of Europe’s top destinations, before re-boarding the ship for the return journey back to Newcastle.

Alternatively, spend some time in the charming city of Bergen – the perfect way to enjoy Norway’s famous west coast, or take a Mini Cruise break to Stavanger that includes a return overnight sea crossing and a day to explore this wonderful city.

Saving up to 25% prices start from only £55 per person for a two night Mini Cruise break to Amsterdam and Stavanger based on two people sharing. While for a three night Mini Cruise to Bergen, prices start from only £65 per person.

Departures are on selected sailings throughout July and August.

Family Matters

Take the whole family away this summer for less on a two or three night mini cruise break to Norway and Holland this summer. During July and August two adults and two children can enjoy delightful city breaks to Bergen and Stavanger in Norway or Amsterdam in Holland.

As European Capital of Culture 2008, there has never been a better time to take a short break to Stavanger. Watch the world go by at one of the many bars and cafes in the historic harbour or wander around the colourful streets and shops. A visit to the vibrant city of Amsterdam provides things to see and do for the whole family. Soak up the atmosphere with the whole family and take a trip to the Nemo Science Museum, Vondel Park or the Van Gogh Museum.

Prices start from only £130 per family and kids go half price which means a fantastic saving of £60 during the peak summer months.

Sail and Drive

A group of four can travel to Stavanger or Bergen in Norway as well as Esbjerg in Denmark, giving you the chance to explore the entire breadth of stunning Scandinavia in your car.

Saving up to £68 each way prices start from just £278 and include two adults and two children based on travelling from Newcastle to Norway including carriage of one vehicle.
