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.
