When we got on board in Durban everything was excellent, curtesy from proffessional staff, our luggage well taken care, lunch already prepared, safety aspects observed and the takeoff entertainment exceeded my expectation.Just wanted an experience a cruise so can plan a holiday with my family, also just have fun and a weekend away. It has been the best experience in my life, now i will be planning to take my whole family. Every thing about the cruise from embarkement, the ship itsself, food entertainment and also hassle free disembarkement was excellent. Portuguese island Msc Lodge was spectacular, entertaiment, security, vibe all was world claas. I came with my friend but everything was worth the price. Loved different people with different cultures on board with their caring, helpful and friendly nature. Big up to your team and staff. Iwould like to take my son to have this life time experience, Well done MSC.
