As the largest privately owned cruise line in the world, MSC Cruises has been taking millions of people on journeys at sea. Inspiration leads the journey and passion for great hospitality continues to fuel the vision of MSC Cruises. It is the pure essence of being at sea that drives the desire in every individual to see the world.

  • I could never stay long enough on the shore; the tang of the untainted, fresh, and free sea air was like a cool, quieting thought – Helen Keller
  • We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop – Mother Teresa
  • Ocean is more ancient than the mountains, and freighted with the memories and the dreams of Time –  P. Lovecraft
