Around the World Cruises & Grand Voyages
At Fred. Olsen, we share your passion for travelling the world with our Grand Voyages. Each year, our talented Journey Planners craft a programme of exciting cruises sailing around the world on board our smaller ships, taking you to explore the furthest corners of the globe and experience a variety of unique cultures.
The warm waters of the Mediterranean will welcome Balmoral on an awe-inspiring 2025 Grand Voyage visiting scenic coastlines and islands in abundance. See intricate architecture at Barcelona’s Sagrada Familia and Istanbul’s Topkapi Palace, experience natural wonders like scenic Lake Bled and embrace the beautiful clifftop towns of the Amalfi coast and Greek islands, with their jewel-like colours standing out against lush hillsides. For those guests who would like to sail around a particular region, you can embark on one of our Mediterranean fly cruises, flying from London or Manchester into the heart of the destination, so you can begin exploring straight away.
Meanwhile, in early 2026, Borealis will sail to South America and the Antarctic on an epic journey of exploration, where you can see penguins in the Falkland Islands, experience the Rio Carnival at the Sambadrome, and discover the awe-inspiring Chilean fjords, flanked by snow-capped peaks.
Later in 2026, set sail on Balmoral on an unforgettable journey to iconic destinations like Istanbul, Piraeus (for Athens) and Valletta. Explore hidden treasures like Marmaris, Kavala and Syros, and make the most of extended stays in Limassol and Crete for even deeper discovery. Balmoral will also take you on scenic cruising of the Bay of Kotor, the Amalfi Coast and Strait of Messina.
