What our customers say
"The Balmoral is an excellent ship. Outstanding crew, good entertainment and an all round experience such that we have booked two further cruises on her this year with plans for more in the future. Our only error was booking through Planet Cruise where the service is atrocious and the entire experience execrable. By all means book a Fred Olsen cruise- I thoroughly recommend it; but be careful to book it direct or through a better agent" view more

Customer reviews for Balmoral
The Balmoral is an excellent ship. Outstanding crew, good entertainment and an all round experience such that we have booked two further cruises on her this year with plans for more in the future. Our only error was booking through Planet Cruise where the service is atrocious and the entire experience execrable. By all means book a Fred Olsen cruise- I thoroughly recommend it; but be careful to book it direct or through a better agent
We were lucky with the weather and the northern lights. The food on the ship was good The ship was very clean and all the staff and crew were very friendly and helpful. As for the itinerary, we would have preferred 2days at Tromso in place of 2days at Alta.
Nice ship, just the right size with a great crew. I had a problem with my cabin floor being uneven and uncomfortable to walk on. When I complained I was offered another cabin but this was unacceptable. The carpet and underlay was replaced the next day. Otherwise no problems. Weather was very good overall. Food onboard was very good and accommodating to my diet.
Everything was excellent. Staff were amazing, food was really good. Cabin, and in fact the whole ship, was scrupulously clean. We had a wonderful time.
