We have had a fantastic cruise aboard MSC Fantasia. Everything was perfect. A beautiful ship as always with MSC. Really outstanding service from the crew. There were few guests aboard and the crew made up, by going the extra mile to make us all laugh and feel welcome and entertained.
One person in particular impressed me, this is a young man on his first contract and 23 years old called Adi ...
I have to say that I am not a fan of short cruises during school holidays and my recent cruise on the MSC Fantasia confirmed this. Firstly I commend MSC for the cleanliness and the overall level of maintenance of this older ship. The crew – as on all cruises I have taken were welcoming, full of smiles and ready to go out of their way to satisfy cruisers. Being a round-robin Mediterranean trip ...
Sailed with a friend on this winter sailing round the Med from Barcelona, and can't recommend MSC Yacht Club experience enough.
From the moment you arrive and make your self know to any of the butlers, you will have the most beautiful time, MSC beat any other cruise line, hands down with the attention to detail and service for YC guests.
We booked a YC Grand Suite, which was originally just ...
Subject: Our experience on board the MSC Fantasia cruise ship.
Embarkation in Genoa (Italy) on November 2, 2019, disembarkation November 20
2019 in Santos (Brazil).
On November 2, 2019 we flew with the KLM to Milan. That went well.
Then we drove a shuttle bus to Genoa, a journey of more than 2 hours.
We had a cup of coffee on the plane around 10 a.m. and then nothing more.
We did ...
This was not my first cruise with MSC,in fact it was about my 7th or 8th mostly transatlantic from Santos, Brazil to Europe apart from one to the Caribbean. Prior to this I had done a mini cruises with Fred Olsen. To be honest,after my first cruise with MSC in 2013 I was quite impressed and wanted to go again,which I did more or less ever year following. In 2014 cruising again from Brazil to ...
We were all waiting a large warehouse type building up to 6 hours to acess ship!! No explanation, no apologises. Then once on the ship, we were ordered to take part in the health and safety exercise, when most of us were exhausted and hungry. Organisation in disembarking for excursions, were chaotic & disorganised. An excursion to Rio was not included as part of the itinerary. Sorry, there was an ...
I have been on eight cruises and have cruised with Royal Caribbean, Norwegian, Carnival, Costa, and Viking River. All have been great. This MSC cruise, however, would turn anyone against cruising.
I chose this cruise because it began in Buenos Aires and featured two days in Rio de Janeiro, the two places I most wanted to see in South America. What MSC does not tell you is that this ship is ...
Veteran cruiser this was our 5th with MSC. Sadly they seem to be going backwards with Entertainment, food and service.
I gave this review 2 stars, out of the dozen or so cruises I have taken this was by far the least enjoyable.
This is the reason for each star I knocked off.
1. Lets start with entertainment. It was bad, the shows they put on were cheap and the crew performing were poor. ...
I don't normally post reviews but in the case of MSC I found other people's opinions useful so thought I'd add my brief thoughts on MSC Fantasia.
We booked mainly because of an attractive itinerary that included a land tour to Machu Picchu with a price that was too good to miss. We joined at Barcelona with the itinerary including Malaga, Madeira, Tenerife, San Salvador de Bahia, Ilehus, Ilha ...
the destination in combination with the price. Our travel agent organised connecting flightswith KLM so everything looks good. The ship is very nice, the crew friendly and the food is good
The main problem is: TOO MANY PEOPLE it cost appr. 3 hours for embarkation waiting and stand in a line.
Waiting and stand in a line for almost everything as: breakfast, shore excursionslunch in the ...
