The Natural Wonders of Iceland
Circumnavigating Iceland’s rugged lands, uncovering beautiful scenery and natural wonders throughout your journey, makes for an unforgettable, simply spellbinding cruise adventure. Stopping at Reykjavik for an overnight stay affords ample time for an in-depth exploration of the astonishing Golden Circle, to feel the heat from bubbling geysirs and hear the roar of thundering waterfalls; and for a visit to the beautiful Blue Lagoon, to bathe in its soothing, mineral-rich geothermal waters.
At Ísafjörður and Seyðisfjörður – only accessible to smaller ships such as Balmoral – some of Iceland’s most remote, hard-to-reach treasures await. Ísafjörður is your gateway to remote Vigur Island and Hornstrandir Nature Reserve, an unspoilt wonderland of lush tundra, towering cliffs and waterfalls; and a visit to Seyðisfjörður will present you with panoramas filled magnificent, simply unforgettable scenery. For an experience of a lifetime, you could also join a whale watching adventure – to look out for whales, dolphins and porpoises living freely in their unspoilt natural habitat – from Akureyri, which is also the starting point for tours to glorious Godafoss waterfall and Lake Mývatn.

About Your Ship
Balmoral, carrying up to 1,350 guests is small enough to navigate narrow waterways such as Kiel Canal and bring inspirational sights and experiences closer to you.
Like the rest of the fleet, Balmoral retains a warm, welcoming atmosphere and features comfortable accommodation and lounges, stylish restaurants and plenty of open-deck space.
The Fred. Olsen Difference
Our size advantage means we can take you to places that some of the larger cruise vessels simply can’t. We dock close to the heart of some of the world’s most beautiful cities and can take you on scenic cruising adventures showcasing inspirational landscapes. Our itineraries are expertly crafted to make the most of this advantage.
Aboard our smaller, friendlier ships you'll find there's plenty of room to stretch out by the pool, enjoy a drink and great conversation with like-minded guests, and make the most of your time away. Sailing with hundreds, not thousands, of others allows you to get ashore faster too, and make the most of each destination.
Each member of the Fred. Olsen team has been carefully selected for their warm and welcoming personalities. The quality of our people, supported by training and development, ensures they will give you a great holiday. In fact, 97% of guests rated Fred. Olsen’s friendly, attentive staff ‘Excellent’ or ‘Good’.
