Sail Date: Nov 2012

This was our second 'relocation' cruise (the transfer of ships from the Northern Hemisphere to the Southern Hemisphere for the summer and then vice versa in March / April); this time from Genoa to Cape Town and many exotic places in between. Last year we travelled on MSC Opera from Venice to Buenos Aires and had a similar experience. We both agreed that this year's cruise was even slightly better, in that MSC seemed to take on board our recommendations from the earlier cruise and implemented them. For example, the laundry package could now be renewed. This is essential on a 19- night cruise. Additionally, there were improved hygiene precautions at the water dispenser, lower sound levels in the theatre shows, and several other minor, but important changes, put into effect by MSC.

As with all MSC ships, their hallmark is impeccable cleanliness and Sinfonia is no exception.

Embarkation was painless in Genoa with modern facilities, a queue for on-line check in and another for non-online check in. Both moved quickly. We were able to book excursions and, for those who wanted to, buy drink packages before going onboard.
