Customer reviews for Borealis
Definitely the best ship I've sailed on so far out of 16 cruises with nearly every cruise line. Very laid back, beautifully decorated, impeccable service. I would say the average age was 75, but that suited me. Would recommend Fred Olsen to anyone.
A fabulous cruise the scenery was amazing. The Borealis ship was great. Tours as with most cruises are expensive and not value for money.
Really enjoyed this ship. Excellent service. Will travel with them again, at the right price.
Fred Olsen has made a great job of refurb on the Borealis its like new. The food was amazing. I would recommend to anyone to try this ship from Liverpool, also Iceland was great too.
