Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5

omg what a surprise to see a huge crowed line just before the dinner room! I didnt witnessed anything of that kind on my previous cruises. I was surprised that there one only a mexican restaurant (delicious meat that thing said, yet the only decent meal to me lol). Our first dinner was awfull and again, a huge amount of time ... waiting for the meal to be served. Quite a shame, i wont even talk about the morning self just avarage to my taste.

@Gohunter : you are right. I should have cruised with them while the children are not on holidays and… buy a MSC Yacht Club which I certainly will if I don’t find an itinerary that suits me other than with MSC.

We love MSC. Far better than several supposedly 5 star cruise lines that we have been on. Out of 27 cruises so far, 11 have been with MSC. Loved every single one. No, we don't have young kids either. We're in our 60s and go cruising when the kids are all in school!

It is rather a 3 stars than a 4 but the stars I gave on the computer to the cleaning or other stuff were good. Yet to me it is more a 3 stars!^^
