I would not recommend this Ship to anyone unless you are Italian every thing was aimed at the Italians other nationality's where not catered for, it was also the worse food I have ever had on a Cruise Ship, the so called buffet restaurants where more like a canteen same thing day after day, staff very slow in all bars also reception staff not very helpful at all also no British rep on board had to make do with anyone who could barely make out what we wanted I also know that I was lied to by at least one of the reception staff, entertainment was awful, I could go on and on but don't have that much time to spare, This review is only of the MSC Lirica and staff not the destinations we visited which where great I would say do a Dubai Cruise but not with MSC Cruises.

O' nearly forgot we where not getting picked up to go to Airport till 10.30 AM but we where put of the ship at 8.45 AM to either wait in the sun or the building that they use for Embarking in fact some people where not getting picked up till 1 PM and guess what we where all British.
