Cruises from Edinburgh (Rosyth)

Balmoral sailing out of Rosyth, Scotland
Balmoral sailing under the bridge in Rosyth, Scotland

Norway’s spectacular fjords, or uncover hidden treasures closer to home, including the picture-perfect Scottish isles. Meanwhile, our summer 2026 cruises from Rosyth offer our guests the opportunity to explore the scenic coastlines of Ireland and Scotland, and thanks to her smaller size, Balmoral can sail right into the heart of the charming French river cities of Rouen and Bordeaux. During August 2026, Balmoral will also embark on a cruise to Iceland, timed to coincide with the total eclipse of the sun, so you can experience this dramatic phenomenon from the vantage point of her wide open decks.

Every itinerary is thoughtfully crafted to provide a wealth of enriching experiences, bringing the world closer to you. Just 40 minutes from Edinburgh, the Port of Rosyth is an ideal starting point for your holiday, perfectly situated near the iconic sights of Scotland’s capital. It also offers easy access to Fred. Olsen’s smaller, friendlier ships, ready to welcome you aboard from Rosyth and other ports in northern England.
