Profile
Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines has special appeal to discerning travellers seeking a polished and traditional cruise experience on smaller ships with unusual itineraries and a gracious, but not stuffy, British ambience. Passengers return time and again to enjoy the intimacy and sophistication extended by the world's longest held (150 years) family-owned cruise line. Tradition and quality are the very fabric of company culture.

Fred. Olsen cruises are classy. Flagship Golf, avid bridge players and a dignified game of carpet boules are among the very British touches you'll find on Fred. Olsen's three stylish vessels, Black Watch, Braemar and Black Prince. These unique ships are bound by their excellence, offer gracious informality and capture an aura of days gone by. Two of them are well known in North America and have been beautifully refitted. Spacious cabins and a wide promenade are found on Black Watch (former Royal Viking Star), custom built for world cruising. Braemar (former Crown Dynasty) was acquired in 2001 and has never looked better. The intimate Black Prince is known as the friendliest ship afloat.

Renowned for its worldwide itineraries featuring unique ports, Fred. Olsen sails from England to Africa, Baltic, Canary Islands, Caribbean, Mediterranean, Scandinavia, South America, Europe, and Around the World.
