MSC Cruises has launched exciting new West Africa itineraries departing from Livorno in Italy and Durban in South Africa which combine the relaxation of a long ocean cruise with a tremendous variety of ports of call and special excursions

The new West Coast itineraries and excursions have been carefully designed to offer a stimulating and varied combination of city life, ancient sites, wildlife, beaches and beautiful landscapes.

Casablanca, for example, offers the typical winding streets and bustling squares of friendly yet refined Morocco, with visits to the magnificent Mosque and an impressive market, where there is many a traditional bargain to be found.

The excursions in Africa concentrate as much on the incredible landscapes and wildlife as on the fascinating cities and villages. Dakar, for example, offers a city tour that includes visits to the local craft market and Presidential Palace, but also excursions to the desert dunes, RoseLake – which really is the colour rose - and baobab woods. In addition, Walvis Bay boasts flamingo watching and oyster tasting, as well as a whole array of excursions, including 4x4 tours to explore the desert.
