Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines is a family-owned favourite in the British cruise market offering guests a traditional cruising experience. For over 170 years, Fred. Olsen have been providing an award-winning service, with their fleet of ships incorporating traditional style and unparalleled elegance while focusing on relaxation, comfort and delicious cuisine. The fleet consists of three classic-styled mid size ships: BalmoralBolette and Borealis - all of which allow for docking in smaller, unique ports of call.

Step on board to a welcoming and intimate setting with stylish suites and cabins, tantalising restaurants and spacious public rooms.
