Cruising is an increasingly popular option for families being the ideal combination of onboard entertainment with the fun of discovering faraway places on shore excursions.
With MSC Cruises, there is a third benefit for families with the offer of free places for under 18s year-round when sharing a cabin with two full-paying adults.
Whatever the ages of the children, there are special clubs catering for their needs – a Mini-Club for the 3-9- year-olds, Junior Club for the 9 -13s and Teenagers Club for the 13 – 18s.
Admission to children’s clubs is free and MSC’s experienced staff are on hand to arrange daytime activity programmes including sports tournaments, treasure hunts and pool games.
