The 804-guest ship will begin with a seven-night Lochs of Scotland sailing, and in total will offer eight cruises from Rosyth until 14th October 2017. An increase of one call to the port since 2016.
Fred. Olsen will be offering various different itineraries including a seven-night ‘Scenic Fjords of Norway’ cruise, a 10-night ‘Cultural Cities of Northern Europe’ sailing and also a 16-night ‘Landscapes of Portugal & The Canaries’ getaway.
Plus Fred. Olsen has also included two river cruises ‘German Waterways’ and ‘French Rivers’, both of which have not been offered previously from the Scottish port.
Clare Ward, Director of Product & Customer Services at Fred. Olsen, said: “Black Watch’s forthcoming cruise season from Rosyth builds upon Fred. Olsen’s already-close relationship with this convenient, regional Scottish port.
“It is rewarding to see that cruising with Fred. Olsen is now well-established as the ‘holiday of choice’ in the minds of so many local people, as well as attracting guests from further afield on our more adventurous itineraries, such as our 13-night ‘Greenland, Iceland & Norway Exploration’ in August.
“The Port of Rosyth is quite unlike anywhere else that we visit in the world, boasting spectacular scenery and three iconic bridges, and Black Watch’s guests will be amongst the first to sail under the new Queensferry Bridge, which will be opened officially by Her Majesty The Queen this September.”
