We Boarded the UK’s Oldest Cruise Ship - Fred. Olsen Balmoral
In this video we share our first impressions of Fred Olsen’s Balmoral as we join the ship in Malaga at the end of a 56-day cruise. We talk you through embarkation day, travelling by flight from the UK, boarding the ship, and what it feels like to join a cruise part-way through a long voyage. We show you our cabin, share our early thoughts on Balmoral as an older and smaller Fred Olsen ship, and give an honest account of our first evening on board, including the buffet, main dining room experience, and how dietary requirements and food allergies were handled on the first night. We also discuss how much we paid for this cruise, including flights and onboard credit, and whether we think it represents good value. With recent experience on Fred Olsen Borealis, we begin to compare the two ships and explain why Balmoral feels very different so far. If you are considering a Fred Olsen Balmoral cruise, joining a cruise by flight, or wondering what embarkation day is really like, this video gives a realistic look at day one on board. This is the start of our Balmoral cruise series, where we’ll be sharing honest reviews of the ship, food, cabins, entertainment and destinations as the week goes on.
