MSC Orchestra
Ship Rating:
From the moment you step on the MSC Orchestra, you will be stunned by its understated elegance. Five sparkling pools, a Sports Center, a fully equipped gym and a jogging track will keep you active even while at sea. You can also head over to the MSC Aurea Spa to unwind with Turkish baths, saunas, Balinese massages, whirlpool baths and many more treatments for the ultimate pampering. Catch a live show at the Covent Garden Theater or the Savannah Bar, or head over to La Cubana Cigar Room to enjoy uninterrupted cigar bliss. There are several bars for your enjoyment, as well as the Palm Beach Casino and the Card Room. Other amenities include upscale shops, a photo gallery, an Internet Café and a library. Kids will have the cruise of their dreams as well when they head over to the Jungle Adventure playroom or the Teen’s Club, depending on their age. Couples, singles and families of all ages will enjoy their time on the Orchestra.
