I sailed on Fred Olsen Cruises flagship Bolette. This is what I saw.

This is how a review should be, clear detail, and unbiased opinion, well done. Unlike the many couples trying to be entertainers…..and failing miserably. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK 👍👍

Glad you had a positive experience of Bolette. Having sailed happily on Balmoral and Borealis, we have a great affection and admiration for Olsen as a cruise line, and Bolette is bound to be calling us to here decks sometime soon.

I’ve returned from a cruise on the Bolette at the start of the month, and found the ship to be perfect for those who do want the “older” way of cruising. We saw no trouble, drunk passengers or wayward youngsters (all of which we’ve seen on larger cruise ships). The staff were lovely, the food plentiful and of the right mix. Fred. Olsen doesn’t try to match the other companies, it sails alone (pun intended), and I reckon more people return to them because of their stance in the market. I am so glad we found FO because we can look forward to sensible, relaxing and personal cruises in future. Your video hit the right spot, and others will appreciate the knowledge you’ve given them. 12:26 For those who want noise, over-crowding, late night drinking, possible trouble, go elsewhere, you’ll be disappointed with this lovely ship and its demographic of mid-60 year-old age groups !! Thanks FO.

Thanks Phil

Thanks for your very informative review. Bollette strikes me as my kind of ship and perhaps quite similar to the Ambassador Cruise Line ships.

I've never yet been on a cruise. I find the big, modern ships utterly off-putting. But I have booked this year to sail with Fred Olsen on Bollette, a 27 night cruise to Canada, Greenland and Iceland. I'm travelling alone, as usual, so I m hoping that the experience will be a good one. I have heard excellent reviews of Fred Olsen cruises, and it seems like a good fit for me. Looking forward to it!

Very surprised to see myself on your video. Our first experience of a cruise, which enjoyed and found very relaxing.

I do try to not get too many people in the videos. That said, when random people do get into shot I do make sure when editing that there is nothing that could be any invasion of privacy. Glad you enjoyed the cruise - I'm off on another one next week

@@RobSlaterNJT It was fine you only saw the backs of our heads sitting in the library looking out of the window. Hope you enjoy your next cruise.

Although we loved Bolette unlike you, we did find it rather hectic, people were running from the theatre in time for the quiz as it was hard to get a seat. Even sea days , no time to sit and read with all they had to offer, so much to do and people were rushing to do it...Maybe as only 4 nights they wanted to fit everything in.
