Your cruise at a glance
Hand-crafted highlights
Sail aboard Balmoral to exciting cities where cultures intertwine at a less busy time of year with fewer crowds and winter warmth. Visit the Pyramids of Giza on a special tour, stay overnight in Istanbul and take time explore Hagia Sophia and Topkapi Palace, and browse bustling markets from Limassol to Marmaris. You can discover the lesser-known ports of Kalamata and Trapani, offering a relaxed Mediterranean charm, contrasting perfectly with Morocco’s lively souks and Berber culture. Wander Tangier’s medina and sip mint tea, and visit historic sites like Agadir’s Kasbah, Kalamata Castle, and Athens’ Acropolis. A highlight of this Balmoral cruise is the Fred. Olsen fleet reunion in Las Palmas, where you can immerse yourself in specially planned activities. You can also discover Lanzarote’s volcanic landscapes and Madeira’s botanical gardens before exploring Lisbon by tram and enjoying Porto’s renowned wines.

Visa and health requirements can change at any time. It is your own responsibility to ensure that you check with a professionally qualified source and comply with such requirements. UK passport holders will need visas for certain Fred. Olsen cruise holidays and will be advised at the time of booking. Your cruise booking information will also detail any requirements applicable to your holiday.
On certain sailings we offer two types of cruise fares; Freedom and Saver Fares.
