A great cruise to some superb Ports.
"Casablanca & Rabat was a full 11 hour day which included an excellent lunch at the Movenpick in Casablanca, it was about £110 but was a great day with an excellent guide and was worth the cost, some guests had taken the MSC shuttle bus tour which cost €30 but took them to the Mosque after it was closed and basically drove around Casablanca with no commentary, so this is one to avoid.Aix-en-Provence was an easy 30 minute drive from Marseilles but was disappointing, just another busy town, albeit a pretty one, perhaps we had been spolit by Casablanca and Funchal?..."Read More

MSC Magnifica is just magnificent . They made our spring break super fun and memorable. Food, hospitality, entertainment, events everything was spot on . Their entertainment manager Graham had another level of energy to keep the entire group engaged. Variety of food was great. Shopping experience on the ship was also great. Pools were nice and clean. Gym was nice and especially protein shakes ...

I read a lot of horror about msc and the magnifica and is it luxury, not at all; does it have flaws, of course, was it enjoyable, very. Have an open mind because not everything can and should be perfect 1. Embarkation- very easy, we embarked an hour before scheduled time and it was totally fine. Once on board you go straight to your room (if it is ready) and you get your key card and we were ...

We went a weekend and we really had a good time because in the end it's a vacation but inside the cruise very bad service the food was fatal too many people to such an extent that there were endless queues I would never repeat. You had high expectations and I left very disappointed it's really my experience I made the mistake of not checking the comments first and for me the worst thing was that ...

Embarkation and walk off disembarkation were great. Overall, the rest was a bit of a mess. It was nice to have the key cards on the door waiting for us. It would have been nice to know that our assigned dining room and fun pass were on our key cards. Communication and information go a long way. We were not informed that our dining room was assigned, or that it was listed on our key card. We went ...

We had an amazing time on the Magnifica. We initially booked a Fantastica balcony but upgraded to a Premium suite Aurea about a month before Embarkation. Our suite was fantastic. We had plenty of room and loved the layout and having a tub in the bathroom. One thing to note, you must request washcloths as they are not provided. We loved the small and easy to navigate layout of the ship and had ...

Ship was in better shape than I anticipated considering its age. The housekeeper service was fantastic. Every time I left the room with my daughter she would clean and organize everything in no time. I gave her a good tip. Bars sometimes get too crowded and the bartenders can't put up with the flow. Managers should move bartenders around to meet guests needs and expectations. Food is good. The ...

We have been on about 15-20 cruises in our lifetime. We’ve traveled on Carnival, Celebrity, RCCL, Norwegian and now MSC. We are in our late sixties, married 35 years, live in So. Fla and cruised mostly to the Bahamas, Caribbean & Mexico as it’s the best vacation value w/out dealing with air travel. Port of Miami & Ft Laud have all the cruises you want right in our backyard. We don’t mind spending ...

We had a few vacation days to use up and decided to book a last minute cruise to Key West and Cay Bay. We had extremely low expectations based on some of the reviews and were pleasantly surprised. The ship was clean, the staff was pleasant, the entertainment was great, and the food was fine - not great, but fine. We’re looking forward to another cruise on MSC in the future. The lines at the ...

Overall the staff made the difference. The ship met expectations. Nods to our room steward Dewa, Bibi in various places and Patrick and Prabash (Jootoo) our regular servers in Quattro Venti. Be cautious of online deals from the website as our wifi and drinks were not included and we had to purchase on first day of trip on the ship. The Aurea deck was wonderful , the atmosphere of the ship was ...
