Musica

From Venice MSC Musica points her bows to Bari on Italy’s Adriatic coast and from there heads south-east to Katakolon in the Peloponnese, where ancient Olympia beckons. Next the Cycladic island of Santorini, a thrilling outpost of whitewashed houses clinging to vertiginous volcanic rock with breathtaking views across Homer’s ‘wine dark sea’.

You can have too much of a good thing but, when it comes to picturesque Greek Islands, it’s difficult! Mykonos is always a welcome stop, there’s plenty to do, great places to eat and drink and… it’s as pretty as a postcard. Piraeus is your gateway to Athens, the cradle of modern civilization and never anything less than an experience. In Corfu you can relax on the brilliant beaches or head inland to see more of this surprisingly diverse and lovely island. You might be heading home now, but Dubrovnik will lift your mood once again; this wonderfully preserved Medieval port always lives up to her ‘jewel of the Adriatic’ reputation.

Best of all you’ll be seeing all these wonderful ports of call from the open decks and expansive public areas aboard MSC Musica where, from the moment you step aboard, we guarantee you’ll be impressed! And, make no mistake, MSC Musica is impressive, from the dazzling central foyer where a waterfall drops three whole decks into a pool of luminous water and a piano appears to float in space, to the expansive open decks around the Copacabana and La Spiaggia pool.

Elsewhere the La Scala would put many land-locked theatres to shame while the Sushi Bar could hold its head up high in down town Tokyo. Options abound from a la carte dining, cigar bars and wine bars, cafés for food and the internet, plus spa and sporting options that many resorts simply cannot equal.
