Fred. Olsen are now offering ‘taster cruises’ to Rosyth next summer.

The one-night sailing will depart from Newcastle on June 9 and arrive in Rosyth on June 10.

The experience will give customers the chance to stay on the company’s Balmoral ship and travel up the Northumberland and Scottish coastlines.

There will also be a sailing leaving from Rosyth and travelling to Newcastle which embarks on August 14.

Fred. Olsen’s website states that this is: “Perfect for those looking to travel up or down the country in style, our one-night cruises make for a short yet fulfilling getaway and are a great way to meet our wonderful crew and see what our ships have to offer.

“You’ll have the opportunity to enjoy delicious dining, fantastic evening entertainment and personal, attentive service, all in the company of like-minded guests.

“What’s more, you will get to experience the delights of ocean cruising, from simply breathing in the fresh sea air to stargazing out on deck.”

Prices for cabins on these sailings go from £159 for superior interior cabins and ocean view cabins, up to £259 for a balcony cabin, and £279 for a balcony junior suite.

Bookings for the trip can be made on Fred. Olsen’s website.
