MSC Cruises

MSC Cruises may be headquartered in Switzerland, but the ambience onboard its 23 ships is very much Italian owing to its owners, the Aponte family.

Ships feature a two-storey Mediterranean-style promenade and Instagram-worthy glass staircases filled with Swarovski crystals.

The line’s flagship is the 6,327 passenger MSC Euribia, which is MSC's second ship to run on liquefied natural gas.

Day 2
Zeebrugge
In 1895 work began to construct a new seaport and harbour next to the tiny village of Zeebrugge, situated on the North Sea coast. Today the fast-expanding port of Zeebrugge is one of the busiest in Europe and its marina is Belgium’s most important fishing port. Many attempts were made to destroy this important port during both World Wars. Zeebrugge is ideally located for discovering the historic city of Bruges, and delightful seaside resorts with long sandy beaches can be visited by using the trams that run the whole length of the Belgian coast. Please note that no food may be taken ashore in Belgium. We shall not be offering shuttle buses to Bruges, but you may visit the city on an optional excursion: those visiting Bruges should note that there may be quite a long walk from the coach to the town centre.
Day 3
Rotterdam
Rotterdam is a city that's a long way removed from most people's stereotypical notion of the Netherlands. There are few, if any, canals to be found here nor are there any quaint windmills. There is, however, a thriving modern city which is one of the busiest ports in the entire world.
Day 4
Cherbourg
Nestled on the rugged coastline of Normandy, Cherbourg enchants with a maritime legacy stretching back centuries. Its fame as a strategic port during historic naval battles adds allure to its story. Blessed with a temperate oceanic climate, Cherbourg offers refreshing sea breezes and mild temperatures, ideal for leisurely exploration. Away from tourist crowds, the town preserves an authentic French ambiance, inviting travelers to savor local delicacies and soak in the charm of cobblestone streets lined with quaint cafes. Cherbourg's maritime museum, showcasing relics from the Titanic, stands as a testament to its seafaring heritage, captivating visitors with tales of adventure and tragedy.
