1-10 of 36 MSC Musica Cruise Reviews for Romantic Cruises to Europe
We were guided by our Cruise company to book this one as it fitted the dates and they said it was a good itinerary and lovely ship.
The departure city, Venice is breath taking and it is worth spending time having a look around or booking an extra night before or after, but be careful where you stay as lugging suitcases around Venice over bridges is not easy.
The Ship, looked nice until you ...
We choose this cruise due to travel dates and destinations.
However if I’d known the minimal standard of this ship I would of seemed alternative options.
On embarking it was chaos it clearly states on boarding papers that it commences at 11.30am. However didn’t get on board till 2.30pm. No crew took charge provided any updates.
On board it clearly states where smoking is allowed and ...
Have you ever been to a buffet where the labels are in place, promising tasty treats and then you find that all the food is already gone? That is how this MSC cruise felt in most respects. There is definitely potential and in better hands this could be a great cruise, but MSC and its employees just turns this into a bad experience.
Embarkation in Venice was slow. There is a shuttle bus from ...
We have recently returned from the MSC Musica repositioning cruise from Durban South Africa to Venice. We have cruised with MSC previously so are perfectly aware of some of their 'foibles'. The main reason we chose this cruise was for the wonderful itinerary - we visited Reunion, Mauritius, The Seychelles, Aqaba, Suez Canal Transit, Katakolon, Kotor & Split.
We had hoped that over the years ...
From the beginning things were terrible. Our cruise cards were not correct. We had the drink package and they put it on the card wrong. So we had to go the guest services to correct all three cabins cards. Then you have to wait in line to activate your card with a credit card. Why not do this at embarkation like other cruise lines. Cabin bed was not put together like on reservation. Another ...
We chose this cruise because of the itinerary, embarking in Venice and sailing through the Suez Canal, disembarking in Durban Sth Africa.
There was a long 7 days at sea and unlike other cruises we have been on, there were very few interesting activities to keep the passengers occupied. They seemed to think everyone would just want to lay by the swimming pool, which many of the European ...
Departure from Venice Italy. Food is awful the breakfast is terrible. Egg cold hard and forget the benedictine egg. The diner is not good also. The fish terrible and the steak very bad. I did 8 cruise before and I talked to many people on the ship and they was all agree with me the food is very bad. The service at the restaurant is awful. The server bring the food to me and the two people at the ...
This was our 2nd time on MSC and the first was bad. So why did we go again? The destinations....
Embarkation - This was too many people in too small an area being "assisted" by too few staff. I am disabled, and both myself and my wife (who also has a stick to help walking) were left in a long queue for nearly half an hour before we even got into the cruise terminal. This soured even the start ...
