Imagine waking up in the lap of luxury and looking out of the window to a new view every day — the turquoise waters and white beaches of Greece one day and the historical sights and aroma of fresh espresso in Rome the next. Is there anything more exhilarating than travelling the globe in opulence? Enter MSC Cruises. A far cry from cheap cruises that conjure images of crowded decks, organised fun, and bland buffets, MSC Cruises is redefining cruising as a sophisticated and deeply memorable experience.
What started with a single ship back in 1970 has flourished into a rich portfolio of boats and carefully curated itineraries that promise the experience of a lifetime – starting, of course, with the best ships in the business. Blending classic aesthetics with modern innovations, each is designed to create a warm environment akin to a luxury hotel.
The MSC Cruises fleet
MSC World America is the newest addition to the MSC fleet, setting sail in Spring 2025. A contemporary fusion of European and American design sensibilities, the ship is powered by LNG, one of the world’s cleanest marine fuels. Book your trip now and look forward to an incredible stay thanks to the ship’s spacious cabins, sweeping illuminated promenade, roller skate arena, and a plethora of gourmet restaurants.
Another impressive recent addition to the fleet is MSC Euribia. Named after the ancient Greek goddess Eurybia, who harnessed the winds, weather and constellations to master the seas, the ship is built with sustainability in mind. With artist Alex Flämig’s marine life-inspired artwork on the hull, the ship features numerous swimming pools and an on board waterpark, alongside a relaxing Balinese spa and an exclusive yacht club complete with private cabins and pools.
MSC Bellissima, meanwhile, is certainly among the most gorgeous cruise ships on the high seas. It boasts a seemingly endless promenade complete with boutiques and restaurants and lit by a spectacular 80-metre-long LED dome that creates an environment akin to a charming European street. Worn out from all that strolling? Take a break at the Broadway-style theatre or head to the Carousel Lounge where a fantastic programme of immersive acrobatic and dance shows is on offer.
And that’s only a taste of the vessels on offer. With a vast fleet of ships, MSC Cruises ensures each one has awe-inspiring features to take every holiday to the next level. Whether you’re making memories in the pool, enjoying a romantic stroll on the promenade, relaxing in the spa, or indulging in quality time with the family, there’s something for everyone. Oh, and did we mention the scrumptious menus on offer? You’ll be spoilt for choice with dishes spanning delectable cuisines including Mediterranean, Italian, and Asian.
MSC Cruises destination
While there’s so much entertainment on board you may never want to leave the stunning ships, MSC Cruises’ curated itineraries are just as enticing. Immerse yourself in the historical and cultural allure of the Mediterranean or treat your tastebuds with a foodie sojourn to Asia. For a truly special adventure, sail to the Caribbean with a retreat at MSC Cruises’ own private island, Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve, in the Bahamas. For those willing to take a longer plunge into the world of luxury cruising, there’s even a 121-day journey that stops in 31 countries around the world, making you a bonafide globetrotter without the hassle of packing and repacking at every destination.
What’s more, with unique offshore experiences, such as trekking through the Norway fjords, hiking around Stonehenge, snorkelling in Bermuda or indulging in retail therapy in Dubai, you can create unique memories that will last a lifetime.
With a treasure trove of experiences on offer and a world-class fleet designed to offer a fabulously luxurious stay, MSC Cruises is changing the way you experience life on the water. So, what are you waiting for? The world is your oyster and MSC Cruises is waiting to help you explore it.
