Was a cruise to South America with Msc Magnifica. Not that great. Brazilian crew was horrible. Bad manners. Bad humour. Arrogant. Avoid this cruise.

Review summary

As the idea is to make easy for all type of people have this kind of tourism, the contrast of cultures and behaviour are huge.

Embarkation

2 out of 5
The idonesian and phillipines crew were great. Brazilians, disgusting!!! Punta de Leste I guess they include this city in the tour just to make more money with the excursions. 5 or 6 hours is not enough to get out of the ship and enjoy anything. Actually, you have around 3 hours out. Horrible. Montevideo the same. The ship arrived at 7ham. At 12h30 you have to be inside the ship. The stores and most of places open after 10h or 10h30. Buenos Aires, run away of the excursions and plan the visits on your own.
