Posted by Africa Getaways on Jul-14-2010

 

STUDENTS AGED 18-35 COME CRUISING AND LIVE THE LIFE! GREAT STUDENT RATES!

 MSC Sinfonia LinerMelody 

New Picture (1) New Picture New Picture (2) New Picture (3) New Picture (4)

MSC Cruises will set a new cruising record in South Africa this coming 2010/11 summer season with two cruise liners scheduled for a bumper  69 departures out of local ports to offer the greatest variety of destinations ever.

The elegant 2087 capacity MSC Sinfonia,  described as the finest floating hotel to operate out of South Africa, will be back for a second extended season cruising mainly from Durban to Mozambique and the Indian Ocean Islands from November through to May 2011.

Cruising simultaneously and offering new Atlantic and Indian Ocean destinations from December through to March 2011 out of Durban and Cape Town will be the more intimate 1500 capacity MSC Melody.  Already known locally this well loved ship sets the standard for classic cruising comfort.

MSC Melody will be a regular visitor to Cape Town this coming season and offer new cruise destinations and a total of 11 departures out of the Mother City.  Included are 3 X  four night cruise to the old whaling port of Walvis Bay on Namibia’s famed Skeleton Coast and 2 X  three night cruises to the Southern Cape’s popular holiday resort of Mossel Bay with views en route of the world renowned Cape Point and  Africa’s most southerly point, Cape Agulhas.

Other shorter cruises aboard MSC Melody include four scenic three night cruises between Cape Town and Durban and three fun two night “cruises to nowhere”  out of Cape Town promising sightings of dolphin and whales  and glorious Atlantic ocean sunsets.   

Longer more exotic cruises aboard MSC Melody, include a five night cruise to Tuleur in Madagascar a lively market town also known for its maritime museum housing a preserved prehistoric “Coelacanth”, a six night cruise to the tropical picturesque  port of Fort Dauphin, Madagascar, and an 11 night cruise which includes a stop at, the Indian Ocean’s little France -  the volcanic island of Reunion and Port Louis, the vibrant capital city of the island of Mauritius and a call at Fort Dauphin – Madagascar.

The festive season includes a 9 night cruise to Mauritius and Reunion and the new year cruise visits the lost continent -  Madagascar

MSC Sinfonia will mainly depart out of Durban and continue to offer the popular three night cruises to the uninhabited pristine beaches of  Portuguese Islands. Also on offer are the  four night cruises of contrasts that includes stops in Mozambique’s bustling capital city of Maputo,  the trendy Barra Lodge water sports resort or the idyllic turquoise waters of Portuguese Islands. 

The ultimate indulgence in elegant top class cruising can be enjoyed with MSC Sinfonia’s special  festive season six night Christmas cruise and 11 night New Year cruise which embrace all the wonders of cruising the tropical waters of the Indian Ocean islands.

Special student rates for oceans of fun cruising with friends

Students will be able to go cruising aboard the luxury MSC Sinfonia and MSC Melody cruise liners from as little as R550 per person during the upcoming 2010/11 summer season in Southern Africa.

The highly affordable youth rate announced by MSC Cruises today makes for an exciting ocean-going holiday alternative for students aboard the two ships which are scheduled for a bumper 69 departures offering the greatest variety of destinations ever from local ports.

The offer is valid for four people sharing a cabin and is one of the best ways to enjoy fun, socialising with friends in a sophisticated environment where all live entertainment, accommodation and the finest of meals are included in the fare. They can dance the night away in discotheques with 270 degree sea views, be spoilt for choice with bars, restaurants, indoor gyms, Spas and a myriad sporting activities on deck or simply laze about and soak up the sun at the pool and Jacuzzis.

The special discounted rates available to students on the elegant MSC Sinfonia or the more classic MSC Melody gives South Africans of all ages the opportunity to enjoy the unique MSC Cruise’s experience at sea.

Students, aged 18 – 35, will be able to cruise from R550 per person per night if sharing an inside cabin, and R650 per person per night for an ocean view cabin. The fare excludes mandatory port and insurance charges. The offer does not apply to high or peak season cruises.

MSC Sinfonia returns to South African waters from November 2010 through to May 2011 and will be offering cruises mainly from Durban  to Mozambique and the Indian Ocean Islands. MSC Melody will be a regular visitor to Cape Town this coming season and offers new exciting cruise destinations plus a total of 11 departures out of the Mother City.
