MSC Cruises is known for voyages packed with fun and fascination. Now, the cruise lines newest ship, MSC Meraviglia, is taking this one step further, offering cruises that are sure to inspire all who step on-board.
Meraviglia’s name translates as ‘wonder’ in English – a fitting moniker when you consider the ships size and scale. The largest ship built by any cruise line based in Europe, she clocks in at 1,033ft: catering to 4,500 guests with 2,250 staterooms and countless facilities.
So, what can you find on-board?
Galleria Meraviglia
Galleria Meraviglia forms the central promenade of this Vista Class cruise ship. It is a 96m haven of boutique shops, enticing restaurants and tranquil relaxation spots; perfect for socialising and indulging your discerning tastes. But that isn’t all. When night falls, Galleria Meraviglia comes alive with music, parties and spectacular entertainment.
Cirque du Soleil
Speaking of entertainment, Meraviglia hosts one particular show that will astound and delight everyone on-board. In a first for MSC Cruises (and indeed, the cruising world in general), Meraviglia has an exclusive partnership with Cirque du Soleil.
Twice a night, six nights a week, Cirque du Soleil’s performers will put on a breath-taking show of beauty and acrobatics in the custom-built Carousel Lounge. You can even savour a delectable culinary experience while you watch.
