Additional details

Sail Date: Jan 2017
Cabin: Interior Stateroom

Cruise with mediocre quality, in which almost everything is focused on getting money from passengers. You have to pay for everything.

Since the first night, the staff is chasing you in order to sail water packages (around 30 euros), beer packages (60 euros), or all inclusive drink packages.

The photographer is forced by MSC Administration to run after the passengers, pushing them to get pictures that MSC will try to sell them later.

Cabin Review

Interior Stateroom

It was Ok, it was not the worst thing about the cruise...

Port Reviews

Havana

Perfect - 10 euros / person, more than 2 hours to see all major points of the city. The cruise would charge you 50 euros / persons to do the same...

Montego Bay

Forget any excursion with MSC. You can choose any walk for your own means (taxi, particular and trusthful driver).

Grand Cayman (Georgetown)

Excellent. Indicated by the local public tourist office. 20 euros / person. It will take you to the major points of interest (including dolphins and the beach); the MSC would charge you 65 euros...

Cozumel

Get a taxi to any great beach. You don't need anything else.
