We flew from Cape Town to Durban to embark on the MSC Sinfonia for the April school holidays. When we arrived in Durban the MSC staff was ready and waiting for us which made embarking very easy and quick which i was impressed because we went on 2 boat cruise prior to this one and we waited a while to embark on the other cruises. Even at customs/harbour everything went very smoothly. The ship is beautiful but that is what you can expect from MSC.
On this cruise i took my son with and was a bit worried about space in the cabin but once again i was suprised. I must take my hat off to the cleaning staff always on time and very efficient. As for the dining, what can i say, its was awesome.The food is always fresh and nice and of course you can eat as much as you want. As for the entertainment really fantastic even the activities for the kids. My son was in the "teen club" which he enjoyed cause they always had stuff for them to do.
The shore excursions was very nice and enjoyable. If you really want a value for money holiday without the stress of parking, food and entertainment for your family then a boat trip is the best way and MSC make it easy. I loved my boat trip and will definately do it again and again.
The cabin was very nice, as always. I had the 3 berth cabin because i took my son with us on this cruise and its very comfortable i was a bit worried about it being too small but that was not the case. I received good service from the cleaning staff.
Very beautiful place. We had a great time at Portugese Island.
Very efficient and smooth sailing exoerience
