BE OUR GUEST
Welcome on board your MSC cruise; your holiday is about to start! Open the window in your thoughtfullydesigned cabin, take in the stunning sea views and listen to the sound of the ocean. Unpacking just once, the world is waiting to greet you!
Whether it’s a suite, a duplex apartment or interconnecting rooms for families, every detail has been carefully considered to ensure you’ll feel wonderfully rested and pampered. This relaxing haven of comfort and entertainment will be home for the next few days. All settled in? It’s time to take a peek at the daily programme to find out what’s in store. Oh, tonight’s gala night, so head to the professional hair and nail salon or barbershop to be glammed up. Then, it’s time to shine as you walk down the Swarovski staircase to start your journey in style. Finally, don’t forget to order room service for a lazy breakfast in your cabin tomorrow morning.
READY, SET, GO!
There are so many thrills and spills at your fingertips that the days spent at sea will be just as memorable as those in port. The only tricky bit will be choosing what to do.
First, it’s time for some family fun. From shopping to sipping cocktails by the pool and whirling down the waterslide , there’s something for all ages. Want to climb in the MSC Formula Racer simulator? Sure! As the sun sets, there’s even more to do. Tonight you are booked in at the chef’s table before heading to a quiz and a party.
IT’S SHOWTIME!
After a busy day exploring all the extraordinary sights onshore, you’re back on board for a spectacular evening of fun and entertainment. After another delicious meal, you’re spoilt for choice with the range of night-time activities every night.
First, check out that top-end show you love, featuring an international line-up of artists in the Broadway-style theatre. Then, catch that live band as you enjoy a digestif. If that’s not what you feel like doing tonight, then why not hit the casino for a night of glamour and roulette or dance the night away at a disco?
Or if you’re looking to spend some quality moments with the kids, then why not head to the bowling alley and arcade for some classic family time? Oh, and don’t forget to sign up for the ever-popular MSC MasterChef cooking competitions. The schedule’s packed with fun!
A cruise is about making unforgettable memories: offshore and onboard. There’s so much to do that every second will be one to treasure. Memorable moments await whether you choose to do as much or as little as you want.
