MSC Virtuosa
MSC Virtuosa is one of the World's leading cruise liners with something for everyone!
​
For families there are kids clubs including a LEGO club, a games arcade and splash pools!
​
For adults there's a spa, a casino, and a plethora of bars which are open day and night.
​
For everyone there's a huge shopping promenade, a whopping 5 pools including waterslides and an outdoor adventure area, and outstanding entertainment day and night!
Life On Board
Start your day by visiting the buffet for breakfast before heading for a stroll on the deck or maybe hitting the gym. If the sun is shining, grab a lounger at the outdoor pool and enjoy the ship's entertainment whilst sipping on cocktails. If the weather's not so great, fear not, there's a huge indoor pool area where you can grab a lounger looking out to sea or chill in one of the many jacuzzi's.
​
Lunch is served all afternoon from the poolside pizza bar or the World buffet, and things pick up in the afternoon with happy hour on deck!
​
Head back to your cabin to freshen up and get your best outfit on for the night, which starts with a drink from the champagne bar before a sit down A La Carte dinner. The night is then yours to enjoy - hit the casino, dance away in a Silent Disco or catch a show! The opportunities are endless!
​
The best part? It's all included!
