Our smallest ship, Balmoral, is a classic gem, offering an intimate cruising experience. She has wonderful facilities - five beautiful restaurants, seven bars and lounges, two pools and lovely wide open decks which are perfect for when Balmoral is scenic cruising.
Thanks to her smaller size, Balmoral is perfectly suited to sailing narrow waterways and docking closer to the heart of destinations that larger ships can’t reach.
She can navigate Norway’s scenic Åkrafjord, sailing beneath a low-hanging cable that blocks bigger vessels, and reach Langfoss – widely regarded as one of Norway’s most spectacular waterfalls. In France, Balmoral can journey along the scenic River Seine, winding past picturesque countryside and charming villages en route to the beautiful town of Rouen in Normandy. She’s also able to sail the Kiel Canal – passing through its lock and gliding beneath low bridges (with her mast lowered), while larger ships must divert north of Denmark to access the Baltic.
Balmoral's crest proudly replicates the British royal family's Scottish residence Balmoral Castle, with a nod to Fred. Olsen's historic links with Scotland and where the family still have an estate today.

Colours & Tastes
Our Colours & Tastes restaurant features a tempting journey across Asia, blending bold spices, fresh flavours and the fragrant aromas of the East. From delicate stir-fries to rich curries and creative fusion dishes, every plate is crafted to excite the senses. Embrace the spirit of Italy, where timeless recipes and beautifully balanced flavours take centre stage, bringing together comforting pastas, bright seasonal notes and thoughtfully prepared sauces; or experience the full flavour of the grill, where every steak is hand-cut by our in-house butcher, selected by the chef, seasoned with precision and perfectly seared to lock in the flavours. From juicy, succulent steaks and tender, meaty prawns, to delicious plant-based steaks. Each plate delivers the deep, satisfying tastes of an exceptional grill experience.
Colours & Tastes will offer Asian, Grill and Italian menus on a rotation basis.
The price to book before you cruise will be £20pp, or £25pp if booked on board.

Thistle Restaurant
The Thistle Restaurant is designed with a light and airy feel, offering guests a more informal and relaxed dining experience, boasting a fresh layout, with stylish soft furnishings. The casual, self-serve dining experience with table-service drinks is perfect for those who prefer not to dine at a set time in the Ballindalloch, Spey and Avon restaurants, or those looking to indulge in a late night snack. You can expect to find an abundance of indulgent dishes, expertly prepared by our on board chefs, with various breakfast, lunch and dinner options, and a tasty selection of complimentary afternoon teas with sandwiches, scones and tempting cakes. There will also be the opportunity to try various dishes in our Treats of the Region section, which are local to the destinations you're visiting on your Fred. Olsen cruise.

For those times when you’d like a little something more, you can also order room service* up until 11pm every day.
