MSC Lirica is an excellent cruise ship for families and first-time travelers offering a casual resort ambiance and welcoming atmosphere. Patterned after the nicest hotels in Italy with detailed design, marble, fine artwork, and plush fabrics, guests are in for a treat once they step onboard MSC Lirica. Highlights include the Lirica Health Center, Beverly Hills bar, The Broadway Theater, Las Vegas Casino, and The Blue Club Disco. MSC Lirica offers two main restaurants where guests can enjoy seven-course Italian dinners along with more casual options such as the onboard pizzeria or Le Bistrot Cafeteria.

“Itinerary was great”

Beautiful itinerary, checking off bucket list items. Some bumps in the road getting on and off ship, mostly due to weather, which could have been communicated better. Great trip on a reasonable budget.
