Small ships, big destinations


Family-owned favourite, Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines offers a traditional cruising experience like no other. For over 170 years, Fred. Olsen has been providing award-winning service, with their fleet of ships incorporating traditional style and unparalleled elegance while focusing on relaxation, comfort and delicious cuisine.

The Fred. Olsen fleet consists of three classic-styled mid size ships; Balmoral, Bolette and Borealis. The smaller size of their ships allows for a more personably, friendly, comfortable and cosy atmosphere than you may find on larger ships. They also provide the option to dock in smaller, more unique ports of call meaning you have a whole host of new destinations to visit.
