I go on The Balmoral in a few week to the Norwegian Fjords and the videos you have about her were very useful and has got me more excited! My first ever cruise! Thank you.
Back from my trip to the Norwegian Fjords on Balmoral and fell in love with her. She may be an old lady buy she's a goodie!! Loved her homely feel. Thanks to your videos I took some of your tips and that added to my enjoyment of the trip. I want to get booked up again!
Lovely video, Mate - and very helpful. Nice to see a smaller ships. (Wild horses would not get me on one of the floating apartment blocks based in Miami).
Just watched your other vlog where you mentioned the afternoon tea was £12.00 but £13 on this one. i know its just £1 difference, I am going on a 14 night cruise with Fred Olsen and found this vlog informative , thanks
My husband and I were booked onto a Fred O cruise but Covid really ruined that. (Itinerary change) but I do love the look of them. Not this year, as I’m taking my daughter to the Caribbean, probably not next year as it’s our _big_ wedding anniversary and we have ideas. But sometime.
Matthew, thanks always for your tips. Lucy and I will cruise on Balmoral to Cornwall etc in May this year. Will definitely try a vegan afternoon tea for the price of 1 as my Lucy doesn’t count, of course. June
I got up to go to the bathroom and the carpet squelched...rather off putting!! I'd been really ill and even my Dad was phoning on my behalf to try toget us moved incase I relapsed! Then my husband got ill so we weren't allowed to leave our drying out cabin at all. Eventually it was agreed I could walk around the deck, but not go anywhere inside on board. It was the cruise from hell.
Sorry to hear that! Although she's an older ship, she's fantastically maintained and we had lots of fun onboard! Not boring at all, but hope you find a ship that suits you 🚢❤️

Aw amazing thank you so much!
We love small ships, so this would be wonderful for us. I'm also dairy free, so it's nice to see the cruise line that caters to that.
As far as I’m aware, all cruise ships can and do cater to food allergies and intolerances. You just need to let the Maitre’d know what you *can’t*eat.
She's a wonderful little ship 🚢 Yes Fred Olsen are fantastic at food intolerances, but as Julie said other lines are good at it too!
Balmoral is a lovely small cruise ship ,just the right size for me
She sure is and a wonderful size too!
We go nov so looking forward to it Never been on this size ship before ,can’t wait .Thank you for your wonderful review .
Glad you found it useful! Hope you had a great timea

Glad you had a fantastic time! Couldn't agree more, aw I'm so glad the video was useful!
Excellent video, I'd love to try Fred. Olsen. Thank you for pronouncing 'Ballindalloch' correctly as well 😊
Thank you! Hope you manage to ❤️
Glad I did! There were many tales to get that one right 😂😅
Lovely video, Mate - and very helpful. Nice to see a smaller ships. (Wild horses would not get me on one of the floating apartment blocks based in Miami).
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it ❤️
This looks wonderful. I love small ships and not a lot of activities. Will book in the distant future.
She sure is a wonderful ship ❤️ Hope you get to go onboard one day soon!

Sorry to hear that COVID messed things up for you :( They're a fantastic line, hopefully you get to sail on them soon!
Thanks for this. I’m spending 13 nights down to the Canaries on the 24th this month.
That sounds fantastic! Glad you enjoyed it
Did you enjoy the ship. We're going on her for the first time at the end of August. Excited to try Fred Olsen too.
Sure did! Fantastic traditional cruise with friendly staff
Great video, looks like there are some great spaces onboard!
Thank you so much!
Going on Balmoral April 2024. Well done. Great video. Very interesting. I like to tip individually so is this possible ?
Thank you so much!
I believe it is :) Just speak to guest services when onboard
Matthew, thanks always for your tips. Lucy and I will cruise on Balmoral to Cornwall etc in May this year. Will definitely try a vegan afternoon tea for the price of 1 as my Lucy doesn’t count, of course. June
Eh?
My pleasure! Hope you enjoy it!
Have they solved the leaks? This is the only ship I've been on and experienced a flood along with noyovirud
Oh dear doesn't sound like you had the best experience 😞
We had no issues onboard!
I got up to go to the bathroom and the carpet squelched...rather off putting!! I'd been really ill and even my Dad was phoning on my behalf to try toget us moved incase I relapsed!

Sorry to hear :(
Very in
Thanks if you meant *interesting 🤔♥️
I was considering to book a cruise on Balmoral, but looks so boring and outdated...
