I am a 46 year old from Indiana. I traveled with my family which consisted of my wife, my 2 10 year old boys, my 70 year old mother and her 68 year old sister. We have all cruised before on Princess, NCL, Celebrity, Disney, and MSC. This cruise was in March and we had just cruised on the MSC Divina las October. I have no cruise status, but the family does travel alot. Embarkation was in ...
When I set out to find a decent destination for our honeymoon this Feb, after trotting half the globe I stumbled upon the idea of taking a cruise. After comparing various itineraries, reviews on this platform and the overall costing (considering the destinations covered), I decided to take MSC Splendida from Genoa.
Based on the mixed reviews for this ship I read here, I was a little skeptical ...
We sailed on Splendida in January, we have sailed on her before and she lived up to our expectations. If you are looking for a recommendation then there are a few thing to consider before you choose MSC. If you want the English or American experience then read no further, if you are looking for a cosmopolitan cruise where you will meet several cultures and nationalities then it's worth a try. The ...
Chose this cruise as it fit in with our holiday dates and wanted to try cruising. The cruise travel arrangements were perfect including embarkation and disembarkation. The ship is simply lovely and we had nothing but pleasing encounters with staff. The theatre shows were watchable but nothing special. The cabin was clean and we were looked after well by the cabin cleaners. The itinerary was ...
Price point was appealing.... Oh how we regretted our decision.
This is just a glorified transportation vessel /FERRY. You will stop at each port to let off and take on passengers. It does not feel like a special holiday, just like taking a bus trip... No welcome just sales of package upgrades. No information about shows, dining or trips we waited 5 hours for a map of the boat layout. The ...
We had always cruised with Royal Caribbean but were getting more and more frustrated by the dwindling service levels. Along came MSC with the amazing Status Match scheme which allowed us to take our first cruise with them and at their highest loyalty level.
We take a lot of cruises and have already booked five with MSC, before even taking the first (brave or stupid). The Status Match is a great ...
This was our first cruise ever and we loved every single moment of it. I have been working in the Airline Industry for 20 years now as a Flight Attendant, so traveling is nothing new to me. I have stayed in hotels all over the world, but I have never been on a cruise ship.
I was surprised beyond belief. It was just awesome from the word go. Great destinations and the ship itself is just ...
This was the second time i have been on a cruise with MSC, the first occasion was on Preziosa in September 2015. I can honestly say i was once again disappointed with the quality of the food. The food was never hot or even warm, the food was certainly not at the correct temperature of 75 degrees which is the temperature in line with health and safety. I would love to be a health and safety officer ...
We chose this cruise as it was very reasonable and the ports were appealing .
Firstly the flight into Genoa was horrific the turbulence and the terrible landing dare I say by a woman pilot was the worst ever and we are seasoned travellers !
Standard (so we were told) 25 euro taxi transfer to the port
Embarkation was long and arduous people pushing in ,long queues, total disorganisation ...
