MSC Canary Islands Cruise Reviews

So this is our 4th MSC cruise , and have sailed with various other lines to compare to. Generally a great cruise, beautiful ship, good food and great staff. Here are a few key bits... Boarding- We boarded at Tenerife in the mid point of a 21 day cruise so there was only 200 others boarding today. Took 5minutes! Brilliant Ship at 50% capacity so nothing was busy anywhere! Not sure what ...

Boarded at Southampton, prebooked ABP parking at half price with MSC discount code, 100 yards walk from car park to cruise terminal. Early priority boarding, minimal queues for luggage drop-off and security. Passports, vaccination status and Covid tests were checked, then cruise card was issued, on-board within 15 minutes. On board staff consistently wore masks throughout. Guests were ...

Some poor reviews and left me with what turned out to be unfounded concerns about to expect on this cruise. Our embarkation went like clockwork as did pretty much everything else on the cruise. We had a mini suite on Deck 12 and it was fantastic. The balcony was more than adequate for two people, our bed was comfortable and tonnes of storage. Everything very clean throughout the ship. Our ...

My wife and I have sailed on MSC Fantasia and MSC Splendida which are the biggest ships flying the MSC flag and decided at Easter15 to have a week in Santa Cruz, Tenerife and a weeks cruise on the newly refurbished MSC Armonia sailing the Canaries and up to Casablanca. Looking at other reviews there is a real mixed bag of good and bad re MSC. We had fantastic cruises on Fantasia and ...

Yes we were among the Gatwick 40 that sailed on the Msc sinfonia from the 2nd of April instead of the 31st of March first landing at Pisa instead of Genoa airport and the ship not waiting for us. We were among the group of 16 that was turned of the Msc coach. We had to sort our selves out and make arrangements to get to Gibraltar at our own expense. The only good thing about Msc was the rep, they ...

MSC sinfonia, shambles .... Before I start this was not the first cruise I have done with MSC albeit the first on sinfonia. The holiday started poorly and did not get much better. Flight into Genoa was not able to land so 40 ish passengers were flown to Pisa and told by MSC a coach will be waiting to transfer us to Genoa and that the ship would wait for us. Wrong..... Two hours in Pisa air port ...

Travelling as a solo passenger, I have just returned from a cruise to the Canary Islands and Morocco with MSC Armonia. We usually sail with Thompson but the MSC cruise seemed a cheaper option as there is little no single supplement surcharge. Here are my thoughts and impressions. The ship and services After its recent upgrade I found the ship to be well maintained and modern. My cabin (an inside ...

We have just returned from a 7 day cruise on the MSC Armonia from Gran Canaria. The cruise embarkation actually begins in Tenerife and sails to the Canary Islands and Morrocco. The ship is very clean and all of the public areas are well maintained and comfortable. Our cabin 9125 was of a good size and very well furnished with comfortable bedding including a duvet. The bathroom towels were changed ...

we have been on 46. Cruises before this one,embarkation was very good,the first shock came with the cabin,the ship had a section added to the centre of the ship in November,we where allocated a NEW cabin in this section,the wardrobe is 18 wide,my wife managed to get some of her dresses hung in the space,but there was no room to hang any other clothes,my formal night wear was left in our suitcase ...

I must admit was a bit wary about going on a MSC cruise after reading views therefore went with an open mind which I am glad I did as it exceeded my expectations. We are a couple in our 40s and 50s and this was our 8th cruise having cruised Royal caribbean, Celebrity and Thomson previously. Everything was organised by our travel agent Barbara from cruise.co.uk including flights, hotels and ...
