1. Before my cruise on MSC Poesia, a looked-for Wi-Fi price list but didn't find it. So, i photographed it on the ship for future passengers. You can find it at the end of my review.
2. In general the cruise was very pleasant and interesting because the itinerary that included Greenland. The functioning of the ship was wonderful, without any problems. The food was very good in the buffet Lido ...
Very good service
Everything very well organised
When you arrive, when you leave , good system with the luggage
Leaving the boat for an excursion and coming back was elaborate due to safety measurements
Good food in the buffets and restaurants (Tomi!!), good variety
Posibility for a small forfait to be able to drink freely, recommendable
Nice cabin
Interior a bit over the ...
Our 3-generation family group of 6 enjoyed our weeklong Baltic cruise. We chose this sailing primarily for the combination of itinerary and cost and were not disappointed. We usually travel independently and found embarkation in Warnemunde easy with the local train station a short walk from the modern Port facility. With the exception of St. Petersburg, where a visa is required, we found the ...
We (five adults) wanted to go to the Baltics and MSC Poesia was the best option for us since we were to visit 9 ports including a two day stay in St. Petersburg. First time on MSC. We left from Warnemunde, Germany which is not an easy port to get to nor leave from Berlin. We could have embarked and disembarked in Copenhagen which after our experience in Warnemunde I would recommend. In ...
I would like to give my honest review of the Baltic cruise on the MSC Poesia. We started our cruise in Warnemunde. We spent the night before the cruise in Rostock, Germany. It was a nice town with a strip of shops and colorful houses.
In the morning we made the short drive to Warnemunde. I had purchased parking at Easy Parken for 96 euros for the cruise. It was a breeze. The workers were ...
We have just returned from an 11 night port intensive Baltic cruise on Orchestra and I have to admit we went with limited expectations after reading previous reviews.
A little background and context first which I think is important when reading these reviews: We are in our early 50’s and have mainly sailed with Royal Caribbean, Princess and Oceania.
Our Diamond status on R.C. allowed us to ...
Before I start my review, I’d like to share a little background about myself. I was born in Germany and lived there until I was 21, so I am well familiar with European customs etc.
My husband and I enjoy cruising. We have sailed on Royal, Disney, Carnival, Celebrity and Norwegian.
We chose the 7-Day Northern European Cruise on MSC Opera because of itinerary and price.
Embarkation and ...
Overall... we were quite happy with the cruise. Our expectations were low based on the bad reviews. But although u can't compare food wise to other cruises like Carnival (no lobster night!)... it wasn't that bad. Some nights it was even excellent.
Cabin and steward quality is about the same. Waiter was good as well... allowed us to order what we wanted... short of lobsters of course. Didn't ...
First time with MSC. We found the Baltic itinerary well-balanced with four ports and two sea days. Fellow cruisers for this cruise were overwhelmingly German and Italian, and in the age group 55+. This would seem to have an influence on the entertainment, for example (see below).
We had an Aurea balcony cabin and found it very comfortable and clean. Storage space was ample (with loads of ...
