Review summary

MSC does a great job of taking care of their guests. They get a bad rap in the US because of the cultural differences between European and US ways of doing things. They treat guests with sincerity and respect.

Best port of the trip. Arrived a day early and went to Sagrada Familia and it was amazing. Ate at one of the best tapas restaurants and will definitely be back for an extended stay.

Ajaccio, Corsica

3 out of 5

Wasn't much to Corsica. Reminded us of Nassau. Half the shops were closed and nothing really memorable.

Civitavecchia (Rome), Italy

4 out of 5

Too much to see in too little of time. City was also chaos. Figure you will only see 1/4-1/2 ood the series you think you could get fit into one day.

La Spezia (Cinque Terre), Italy

5 out of 5

Stayed in town instead of long bus rides to Florence or Pisa. What an awesome little town with great seaside views, shopping and dining.

Thumbs Up 1

Genoa, Italy

5 out of 5

We rented a scooter and drove all around to a palace, castle, neighborhood flea market, and breakfast and lunch. Had the time of our life.

Thumbs Up 3

Cannes, France

4 out of 5

Cannes was great when you walked off the strip. Those 10' wide streets with cafes and shops made you feel like you were on a movie set.

Thumbs Up 4

Palma De Mallorca, Balearic Islands

5 out of 5

Another great port. Went to the cathedral and all up and down the scenic sidestreet shops and restaurants. Around up in the biggest small little restaurant that served us one the best meals we've ever had.
