Borealis, 23 November 2026
15 Night Africa Cruise

Borealis is a mid-sized cruise ship offering a relaxed, traditional style of cruising with plenty of modern comforts. Originally launched in the late 1990s, she joined Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines in 2020 and was renamed Borealis. With space for around 1,350 guests, Borealis is small enough to access ports that larger ships can’t reach, making her a great choice for travelers who want to explore less crowded destinations. Whether cruising around Norway’s fjords, Iceland’s rugged coast, or the Mediterranean, the ship offers a good balance of size and comfort. Onboard, you’ll find a variety of dining options, including a main restaurant and specialty venues that serve a mix of international and classic dishes. There are several lounges and bars where guests can relax, as well as a spa and fitness center for those looking to unwind or stay active. Cabins range from cozy inside rooms to spacious suites, many with private balconies. The ship’s atmosphere is friendly and welcoming, with entertainment that includes live music and talks to enrich your journey. Borealis is perfect for those who appreciate a quieter, more intimate cruise experience with a touch of tradition but all the modern amenities.
