What our customers say
"The Sinfonia is a lovely ship, the service was excellent, the food was very good - very Mediterranean as you would expect. The Buffet restaurant was good, but hectic at peak times - expected on most ships in our experience. We marked the activities as Average because they were mainly dance and exercise, but we were in a new port every day (except one), so lots of activities weren't necessary on this trip. The dress code was advisory rather than enforced, which we preferred. The whole cruise was very relaxed and friendly. We were lucky enough to have a drinks package included in our price and this made it excellent value for money." view more

Customer reviews for MSC Sinfonia
The Sinfonia is a lovely ship, the service was excellent, the food was very good - very Mediterranean as you would expect. The Buffet restaurant was good, but hectic at peak times - expected on most ships in our experience. We marked the activities as Average because they were mainly dance and exercise, but we were in a new port every day (except one), so lots of activities weren't necessary on this trip. The dress code was advisory rather than enforced, which we preferred. The whole cruise was very relaxed and friendly. We were lucky enough to have a drinks package included in our price and this made it excellent value for money.
This was my first ever cruise and I had an amazing time wttg my mum. The only thing that I wasn,t happy about was the drinks package far too expensive. Also fresh orange juice told ad on the menu free.a after all the grow on the trees out there. Will definitely take another one if I can negotiate a better better deal on the drinks package!
Excellent entertainment programme and wonderful dancing activities! Did not take part in any of the excursions but heard good comments about them! Felt at home on the ship- not too big and not too busy. Shame we couldn’t dock in Malta but had extra time in Messina! I guess it is to be expected at this time of the year. Overall very happy with the cruise!
