The cruise line has unveiled its 2025-26 programme with more than 90 new itineraries
From the pristine waters of Greece to Scotland’s rugged coastline, Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines has been sailing to some of the most beautiful corners of the world for more than 175 years. And with tailored itineraries, guests can experience the best places at the best times. Now, the line is introducing more than 90 new itineraries, setting sail in 2025-26.
Three top voyages
The line’s new itineraries will be on sale from March 5 and include this trio of standout sailings.
Norway’s Arctic Islands and Mountainous Vistas
Setting sail from Rosyth (Edinburgh) on June 17, 2025, guests on board Balmoral will tick off the archipelagos, mountains and lakes of northern Norway. What’s more, the 10-night sailing will coincide with the phenomenon of the midnight sun.
Discovering the Colourful French Riviera
This 16-night voyage is the perfect springtime sailing, visiting the picturesque Côte d’Azur as it bursts into vibrant bloom. After departing Liverpool on June 23, 2025, guests will visit the lively Cours Lafayette market and see the blankets of lavender in Provence.
Scenic Isles and Coastlines of Scotland and Britain
For 10 nights, Balmoral will traverse the dramatic coastline of the British Isles, taking in cliffs, islets and rock formations.
This cruise will set sail from Edinburgh on June 7, 2025, and when passengers reach Cornwall, they’ll be just in time to enjoy the traditional music of the Falmouth Sea Shanty Festival.
“We are seeing from industry trends that guests are searching for immersive travel experiences. Because of this, our team has planned our new itineraries around the best time to go, as well as how that follows through with the onboard experience.”
Geoff Ridgeon, head of sales, Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines
