The Experience
Board the impressive 1,560 passenger MSC Lirica cruise liner which offers a traditional and casual resort ambiance. Due to its smaller size, the MSC Lirica is ideal for families and first-time cruise passengers as it can provide a more welcoming atmosphere. Check out the American-style Beverly Hills bar and the welcoming English-style Lord Nelson pub. Take advantage of the world cuisines served at each restaurant. Pamper yourself at the Lirica Health Centre and indulge in beauty and spa treatments as you look out though floor-to-ceiling picture windows and ocean views.
Start the seven-night Mediterranean adventure in the southern French city of Marseille. Marseille’s maritime heritage thrives at the vibrant Vieux Port (Old Port), where fresh-off-the-boat catches are sold each morning. Along the coast, seaside roads and cycling tracks veer around sun-scorched coves and sandy beaches. A range of worldly cuisines, shops, music and cultural celebrations ensure the pace never slows in this busy city, where the mistral wind blows. Cruise on to Tunis, which is an ideal introduction to the unique layers that make up modern Tunisia. The medina’s organic tangle of souqs, squares, mosques and shuttered town houses is surrounded by the straight, colonial lines of the Ville Nouvelle.
Next in the trip in Valletta, Malta, named after its founder, the respected Grand Master of the Order of St. John, Jean Parisot de la Valette. The fortress city grew on the arid rock of Mount Sceberras peninsula, which rises steeply from two deep harbours, Marsamxett and Grand Harbour and still maintains a timeless feel. Adventurers then visit Trapani (Sicily) and Rome - before reaching La Spezia which is situated minutes to the east of Italy’s famous Cinque Terre by train, a collection of coastal towns teetering on the edge of epic cliffs and incredible ocean views.
MSC Cruises

In total MSC cruises have up to six types of cabins, including: Inside, Ocean View, Mini Suite, Balcony Cabin, Aurea Suite and the MSC Yacht Club - Royal suite.
Holidaymakers choose cruising as an alternative to stressful airport travel, multiple hotel bookings and the uncertainty of not knowing exactly what you’re getting. MSC welcomes a diverse array of passengers on board. Honeymooning couples take advantage of all the extra services, like the in-cabin chocolates, aperitifs and à la carte dining. Groups of friends can get together and relax or join in excursion packages. Solo travellers can make friends as they meet like-minded passengers on a themed cruise or on a friendly group day out. With all main meals, entertainment, port charges, gala dinners, children’s club included in the cruise fare, a cruise holiday is ideal for those seeking style on a budget.
