Creator's Key Takeaways

I found her to have a very nice interior and a bit of a throwback to the old era of cruising which Fred Olson does so well

this particular ship here had some lovely charming spaces on board and I think you'd really enjoy a long duration voyage on board the Fred Olson Vertica

she is a little bit more dated in her design than the Braemar

the observatory has a distinctly nautical feel with the nautical a themed carpets they're showing ships wheels compasses and sexton's

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Visit the bookmark cafe for a quiet afternoon with books and coffee

YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

Welcome aboard Fred Olsen's Boudicca Cruise Ship. In this video tour I'll take you on a walk through the Boudicca Cruise Ship to check out what makes Fred Olsen's small ships a memorable experience. Fred Olsen's Boudicca was built in 1973 and entered service as Royal Viking Sky. Boudicca has had a storied past, operating for several cruise lines including Norwegian Cruise Line, Princess Cruises and Iberocruises. In 2005 the ship was acquired by Fred Olsen Cruise Line, renamed Boudicca and given a major refurbishment to lengthen the ship. Today Boudicca is one of four smaller ships with Fred Olsen. She undertakes long duration cruises and world cruises. On this video tour of Boudicca with Chris Frame we take a look around the ship and check out all of her major public rooms, including dining rooms, bars, lounges, activities areas, sports centre, swimming pools, shipboard shops and much more. Enjoy a tour of Boudicca and check out a balcony suite as well as the buffet breakfast, a walk on Boudicca's teakwood boat deck and views of the ship's funnel. My thanks goes to the team at Fred Olsen both ashore and aboard for the wonderful visit to the ship. ** Thumbnail Image of Ship thanks to Andrew Sassoli-Walker. ** Music thanks to YouTube Audio. ** Camera: iPhone 7 / Editing: iMovie If you like the video please remember to subscribe and thanks so much for watching.
