Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines' Braemar to explore lost lands of Prussia in 2022

The latest cruise to feature in Fred. Olsens 2022 programme will take guests on a 10-night voyage across Prussia in August of 2022.

Among the many highlights will be the chance to explore two former Prussian capital cities. From Baltiysk, guests can venture to Kaliningrad, the city once known as K?nigsberg. The Braemar will also call into Szczecin and Gda?sk, where guests can visit the largest castle in the world, the UNESCO-listed Malbork Castle. 

Guests booking before January 29, 2021 can receive up to ?150 per person to spend on board. 

Head of itinerary planning and destination experience, Martin Lister, said:  ?This is set to be a really immersive, cultural sailing aboard our wonderful Braemar. At its peak, Prussia once included half of Poland and almost all of Germany, and while it was abolished in 1947 there is still some fascinating evidence of its existence remaining. This 10-night cruise visits lesser known places off the beaten tourist track, allowing time and space to absorb the history within the palaces and other significant sites without being crowded by thousands of other cruise guests. It will culminate with a scenic transit of the narrow Kiel Canal, through the German countryside, passing through the locks and cruising under the low bridges, showcasing small ship cruising at its finest.?

The 10-night 'Revisiting Prussia' cruise departs from Edinburgh on August 19, 2022, with prices starting at ?1,499 per person. Calling at Edinburgh, Szczecin, Gda?sk, Baltiysk, Sassnitz, Rugen Island, Travem?nde, Kiel Canal Transit and returning to Edinburgh. 

This is the fifth itinerary of Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines' 2022 programme, with the entire programme to be released in March 2021.
