Excerpts from MSC's Website
about the Sinfonia
MSC Sinfonia, the latest addition to MSC's fleet, was built three years ago and is now a fully fledged member of MSC's modern 4-star cruise vessels. She boasts Italian elegance, central to the MSC family offering, comfort with wide open public spaces, excellent facilities from bars to cafes to restaurants to the casino and nightly entertainment plus lots more too. MSC Sinfonia has been inspired from the musical notes of the greatest symphonies of our classical European composers. A traveller from the romantic symphonies of Beethoven through the moody notes of Mozart to the contemporary Debussy's music and Tchaikovsky's opera plus those of Brahms
There are a total of 132 suites with balcony and 649 outside and inside cabins. Throughout the cabins and public areas MSC Sinfonia's distinct decor, in true tasteful Italian style, will ensure that the 2065 guests will embark on a comfortable and memorable cruise.
The ports of call that MSC Sinfonia will be docking into could be described as a string of Mediterranean pearls: from the sweeping Bay of Naples on Italy's stunning Amalfi Coast, to the 13th century Moorish architecture and bustling souks of Tunis; the gleaming holiday island of Palma to the stylish Catalan capital Barcelona and the classic elegance that is the South of France. In the autumn, there is also the possibility of taking in the wonderful climate of the Canary Islands and Madeira teamed with the south western Spanish cities as well as classic ports of call on the North African coastline - a combination that will entice those looking for shorter winter sun escapes.
