A major cruise firm has unveiled its Fife scheduled for 2025 including trips to the Mediterranean, Iceland and the Baltic.
Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines will run eight cruises from Rosyth next year.

The company is also giving customers a chance to win a £1,000 voucher with bookings made over the coming days.

Fred. Olsen cruises launches ‘phenomenal programme’ from Rosyth
Speaking at the launch of Fred. Olsen’s 2025 schedule, Martin Lister, head of itinerary planning and destination experiences, said: “This has been a phenomenal programme for our team of journey planners to curate.
“Guests who join us on board can expect to see some breathtaking scenery including eye-catching fjord mountains, dramatic coastlines, icebergs, remote islands and beautiful bays.
“They can visit captivating cities, fairytale castles and charming old towns packed with ornate and striking architecture, and experience natural phenomena such as the Northern Lights, the Midnight Sun, stunning sunsets and flowers in bloom at the very best time to see them.
“Some of the highlights include chances to visit the beautiful Norwegian fjords in the spring, when the waterfalls are at their strongest; to see fields of lavender and sunflowers in bloom in the French Riviera and enjoy a world cruise discovering idyllic islands and cities rich in culture.”
Prices for some cruises start at £1,649 per person.
