As a smaller cruise ship, the Black Prince can travel to different destinations than the larger ships because it is able to enter the smaller ports of call. It also has a more intimate atmosphere in the smaller number of passengers – 421 to be exact, with a crew of 210 giving you individual attention. The cruising style is more relaxed, yet elegant. The ship was built in 1966 and retains the look and feel of a sailing ship but it has all the modern amenities you want to find on a cruise ship. With three lounges, three restaurants, a fitness center and spacious cabins, the Black Prince is truly the cruise ship of choice from the Fred Olsen line. The Black Watch is undergoing a refit as of mid-december.

From the celebration package of Cake, Champagne, Portrait photograph and anniversay gift, to the entire crew, it really was a special occasion. Nothing was too much trouble for anyone. We called at La Caruna, Lisbon, Gibraltar and Vig.... Read full review
