Review summary

The staff at Msc made this trip the best I have ever been on. As my mother and I planned this to celebrate my 25th birthday the staff is who truly made it special it was how well the staff cared about every little detail of our entire trip and they would do whatever they could to make sure we had the best time.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
My mother and I ate at les Dunes every night and we had the best staff Jermine, Ronzellen, Mark, Febar, and Shinta truly made sure we were taking care of. one of the best staff I have ever had the pleasure of spending every meal with. As well as at master of the sea Jorobert, Norman and the singer winning joubert they were very welcoming as we closed down the bar with the almost every night. speakeasy Krystel was absolutely fantastic as well as everybody else the hostess and the gate keeper made it feel as if you stepped back in time! Even at guest services Malik Jeridi made sure what ever we needed was handled. At excursion Hassan gave the best knowledge and advice on what trip would be the best fit for us.

Ship tip

Get to know all the bartenders and staff, they truly will give you the best insight on how to make the most out of your vacation!

Ports of call

Barcelona, Spain

5 out of 5
This port was perfect as you were close to the airport close to hotels the staff really know how to get you on and off within a timely manner.

Marseille (Provence), France

5 out of 5
Our tour in Marseille was truly one of a kind. We had a fantastic tour guide with a good amount of free time that really left you exploring and getting to know the city.

Genoa, Italy

3 out of 5
We did a panoramic tour. Unfortunately, we did not have a great tour guide, still got to see the city, but it was more from a bus as you sit on the bus, they take you to different spots you get out for 15 maybe 30 minutes and get back on the bus.

Naples, Italy

5 out of 5
We went to Sorrento and it was absolutely gorgeous with 100% recommend for everyone to go and to see the limoncello factory and go shopping in the city

Messina, Sicily

5 out of 5
We went to Taormina and it was the best city we got to visit. the Arancini bruschetta and gelato were hands-down better than any where we’ve been as well as going to the private beach, getting a massage and dipping our feet, and Mediterranean was truly an experience like no other.

Valletta, Malta

4 out of 5
We went on the blue lagoon tour to all the different lagoons. Our experience may differ as we got pulled over by the police, but this did not take away from the beauty of the lagoons. It takes a little while to get out there, but snorkeling in the crystal clear water was an experience unlike anything else.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Disembarking was very simple, they give you a time and you are off the ship within 20 minutes of that time frame
