Borealis

Borealis

Perfectly designed for enjoying scenic cruising of the world's lesser-known waterways, Borealis is a gem of the Fred. Olsen fleet. Whether guests prefer to cruise past remarkable landscapes, basking in the beauty of the natural world, or discover historical sites across iconic cities, the Borealis cruise ship makes sea travel comfortable and luxurious.

Welcome to Borealis

Having joined the Fred. Olsen Cruises fleet back in 2020, Borealis features everything guests could need to enjoy their voyage to top international destinations. Its wonderful series of lounges, bars, elegant restaurants and wide-open deck spaces provide the very best comfort and service, and its beautifully furnished cabins and suites embody the luxury experience for which Fred. Olsen is known.

Taking its name from the cruise line’s Norwegian heritage, Fred. Olsen’s Borealis is a relaxing home-away-from-home anywhere in the world. From the sun-kissed shores of the Mediterranean to the icy landscapes of Alaska, guests can celebrate the romance of cruising all over again on a ship with personality and plenty of new-to-the-fleet features.
