MSC Cruises

MSC Magnifica

Combine a pleasant walk in the fresh air with an exploration of some of Barcelona's most notable sights on an outing that begin with a short coach ride from the port. You'll then set off on a guided stroll, with the first landmark being the Columbus Monument at the lower end of La Rambla avenue. The 60 m/197 ft. monument was constructed in 1888 in honour of Columbus' first voyage to the New World. You'll then continue down La Rambla en route to Barcelona's Barri Gòtic and the Neoclassical town hall at Plaça Sant Jaume. Next up are outside views of the Gothic Cathedral of Santa Eulàlia - Barcelona Cathedral - and information on this key site. Last on your walking itinerary is Plaça de Catalunya in the middle of town, just the place to indulge in a little retail therapy. At this point, you can choose whether to remain in the city and make your own way back to the ship or to join your guide on the walk back down La Rambla to board the coach for the transfer back to the port.

Get up close and personal with the streets and iconic sights of Barcelona, from the saddle of a bike. As you follow your bike leader around the city's network of cycle paths, you'll find it's a really relaxed way of exploring. Enjoy great views of the harbour and have a glimpse of Montjuic castle from below, marvel at Antoni Gaudí's unfinished masterpiece, the immense Sagrada Familia, and trundle past quirky boutiques, antique shops, and tiny tapas bars in the city's Gothic Quarter. Cycle to the Museum of Art, and past the Olympic Harbour, and see the Statue of Columbus, the Arc de Triumph and Gaudí's wave-shaped Casa Mila townhouse. You'll also visit Las Ramblas, the famous boulevard buzzing with flower sellers, street artists and buskers, and there'll be time for a refuelling stop at a tapas or seafood bar along the way too.

E stands for easy-going, entertaining, and electrically assisted - three terms that also describe the nature of this half-day tour, which sets out to present the very best of Barcelona from a variety of perspectives. The first of your electrically assisted exploration aids will come in the form of an eBike, which you will pick up and then use to ride through the city and up to the cable car station at the top of Montjuïc Hill, the best vantage point for views of the city. You will also get to have an outside look at the 17th-century Montjuïc Castle before heading back down the hill by cable car to reach the seaside to taste tapas with a drink. You will then pass through Ciutadella Park and the magnificent Arc de Triomf en route to one of Antoni Gaudí's most celebrated architectural designs: the Sagrada Família. You will have some free time to explore before moving on to the elegant Passeig de Gràcia, one of Barcelona's most notable boulevards with external view of Casa Milà.

End your cruise on a high note by taking this opportunity to touch base with the fascinating city of Barcelona before you catch your flight at El Prat International Airport. You'll be able to relax on board a modern coach while the sights of Barcelona are paraded past your eyes. The route will take you past the Passeig de Gràcia boulevard, Gaudí's unfinished Sagrada Família and Plaça de Catalunya in the centre of town. Then, heading out of town, you'll reach Montjuïc Hill for a photo stop to enjoy incredible views of Barcelona. Returning to the city again, you'll then get to stretch your legs on a guided walk through the old Barri Gòtic and have some free time to spend on your own. The tour ultimately draws to a close with your transfer to El Prat International Airport.

An entertaining day of cultural sightseeing awaits you here, starting with a 1.5-hour coach ride to the historical city of Girona. You'll head for the excellently preserved Jewish quarter for an external look at the Isaac el Cec Jewish Centre, the site of 12th-century Romanesque baths, also called the Arab Baths due to their Moorish appearance. Moving on again, you'll then head for the town of Figueres, the birthplace of Salvador Dalí. Once in town, you'll first have time to get lunch on your own, after which you'll pay the fascinating Dalí Theatre and Museum a visit. The museum incorporates the building that housed the town's theatre during Dalí's childhood and is also the place where one of the young artist's first public exhibitions was staged. Apart from giving you a chance to view a huge collection of Dalí works, including 3D installations like the Rainy Taxi and the anamorphic room  the Sala Mae West  in which the face of Mae West is revealed when viewed from a certain angle, the museum is also Dalí's final resting place with the crypt located under the stage. The tour then wraps up with your return to Barcelona and your ship. Please note: this tour is not recommended for guests with walking difficulties or using a wheelchair.

Make a date with Barcelona to explore the beautiful cityscape, enjoy a taste of Iberian flavours and take a ride on the underground on this culture-centric outing. After meeting your guide, you'll first take a shuttle bus to reach the drop-off point in the city centre. Then you'll continue your journey by underground to take a look at the amazing Sagrada Família, masterminded by the visionary architect Antoni Gaudí and yet to be finished. You'll also have some time to spend as you please before continuing on by underground to Plaza Universidad, the perfect starting point for a stroll down the famous Las Ramblas avenue. Moving on again, you can then check out the bustling Boqueria Market on your own after a briefing by your guide. Next up is a real taste of Barcelona at Moniberic, an establishment founded to showcase delicious Iberian hams. Try three jamóns plus a drink before walking through the historical Barri Gòtic to El Born, where mouth-watering tapas await you. Finally, you'll catch a shuttle bus back to the ship.

This family-friendly tour offers half a day of seeing the best city sights, but without putting the usual strain on your feet since you will mostly be comfortably seated on a modern coach. The tour begins at Barcelona's Columbus monument, situated at one end of La Rambla Avenue. You'll then head down the equally magnificent Passeig de Gràcia boulevard before continuing your sightseeing with more attractions on the list including the Sagrada Família, Casa Milà and Casa Batlló, all designed by Antoni Gaudí: your guide will call attention to them as you pass by. After passing through the Olympic ring, splendid views of the city follow from Montjuïc hill, where a short photo stop is scheduled. You will then move on to the Port Vell district to visit Barcelona Aquarium, a huge facility that supports around 11.000 animals representing 450 species of marine wildlife. Be sure to check out the shark tunnel and tanks with rays and other large fish during your unguided visit, after which you'll still have time to do some shopping at the co-located Maremàgnum shopping mall. The tour then wraps up with your return to the ship.

Spend a few hours off the ship to discover the historical town of Sarzana, which you'll reach after only a short coach transfer from the ship. The medieval town centre is perfect for a leisurely walk and checking out the numerous artisanal workshops selling high-quality antiques and typical local products. The sweet highlight of your visit will then be a chance to try some of the town's characteristic cakes in a historical bakery in the centre of town  a truly delicious experience. The scenic coach ride back to La Spezia and your ship finally brings the outing to a relaxing close.

Settled since pre-historic times, gateway to the Cinque Terre region, key commercial and naval harbour as well as Liguria's largest town, La Spezia has much to offer and this enjoyable walking tour will acquaint you with its main sights. Starting at the new cathedral, consecrated in 1975, you will head for the old town and the 13th-century Abbey Church of Santa Maria Assunta, whose various restorations and marble sculptures inside serve to chart La Spezia's history. Your walk continues, taking you down Via del Prione en route to the 13th-century Castello di San Giorgio. You will also visit the co-located Civic Museum, which was founded in 1873 and currently showcases zoological and historical exhibits, including maps, documents, parchments and artefacts found at the nearby Lunigiana archaeological site. You will then return to the old quarter and complete your guided tour of the town, after which you can choose to stay in town on your own or take the shuttle back to your ship.

Famed as Galileo Galilei's 16th-century place of birth and as the home of the world's best known tower, the city of Pisa is your destination on this transfer-only tour. First enjoy lovely views during the approx. 1-hour coach ride, then get set to explore Pisa at your own pace. You'll be given a useful map to help you find your way around, with must-sees surely including Piazza dei Miracoli with its iconic Leaning Tower, which is the free-standing campanile or bell tower of Pisa Cathedral, and the Pisa Baptistery. Whatever you choose to do or see, the coach will be waiting at the appointed time for the scenic return transfer through the beautiful Tuscan countryside.

Founded during Roman times, the birthplace of the Italian Renaissance, home to a legendary artistic heritage, the capital of Tuscany and a city where a dialect is spoken that counts as the parent language of modern Italian: the place is Florence  and your destination on this all-day tour. Best of all, you will have a chance to explore at your own pace and check out only the sights you really want to see. The outing begins with a 2.5-hour coach ride through the wonderful Tuscan landscape, after which Florence awaits in all its splendour. From magnificent architecture and impressive churches, through the Uffizi Gallery and Pitti Palace right up to the famous Ponte Vecchio over the River Arno, Florence provides a never-ending stream of attractions from which to choose. Whichever way you prefer to make the most of your time in this romantic city, just be sure to return to the pick-up point at the given time to catch the coach back to La Spezia and your ship.

Immortalised by artists like Monet, Degas and van Gogh, the entrancing Tuscan countryside is one you can savour during the initial drive from La Spezia to the little town of Lucca, your destination on this entertaining tour. Founded by the ancient Etruscans and still enclosed by a set of fully intact Renaissance walls, Lucca offers visitors a step back in time. A walk through the historical streets will take you past Piazza dell'Anfiteatro, built on the site of the former Roman amphitheatre, en route to an inside visit of the Church of San Michele in Foro. First mentioned as early as A.D. 795, then rebuilt post-1070 by order of Pope Alexander II and finally given its current ornate façade onwards of the 13th-century, the church features a nave, two aisles, a semi-circular apse and mullioned windows. Next up is Lucca's Cathedral of San Martino, whose construction began in 1063 in Roman style, while the present-day building is Gothic due to 14th-century restoration work. You'll then have some time to spend as you please before an approx. 30-minute drive takes you to Montecarlo, a small community and wine growing region noted for producing the "best Tuscan whites". Your destination is a local farmhouse for a taste of homemade food and a chance to visit the wine cellars, the wine production and olive oil pressing areas. This special treat will be followed by your return trip to your ship, which ends the tour.

Leave the ship, board a coach and prepare to enjoy 2.5 hours of glorious Tuscan views on your way to Florence, home to an unsurpassed artistic heritage, a key centre for haute couture and your destination on this all-day tour. After meeting your guide, you will embark on an informative round-up of Florence's main artistic, cultural and architectural sights, including Michelangelo Square, from where you can enjoy fabulous views of the city and the surrounding Tuscan hills, the lovely city centre and the 15th-century Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore  all of them well worth photographing. You will then have a chance to stretch your legs on a walk to Piazza di Santa Croce to see the 14th-century Basilica of Santa Croce, a beautiful white and gold building. Next, you will have time to explore at your own pace, go shopping or choose one of many nice restaurants to have lunch (not included in the price of the tour).

Treat yourself to an enjoyable half day off the ship for an exterior viewing of one of the world's most famous buildings, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, along with other notable buildings and the town itself. A coach journey will first see you reach Pisa to meet your guide, after which you will first continue on to the Piazza dei Miracoli. Not only is this the site of the notorious tower, the cathedral, and the baptistery, but is also the place where Galileo Galilei conducted his ground-breaking acceleration experiments. In addition to seeing the tilting tower, if there is enough time, you will also have a chance to explore the inside of the beautiful 13th-century cathedral and to have an external view of the no less spectacular marble baptistery that boasts a large Romanesque dome. Pisa's pleasantly compact city centre is next, where you will find a whole host of appealing piazzas, buildings, shops, and restaurants to occupy the time you will have to spend as you please. You coach will then be waiting to return you to La Spezia and your ship, with more breathtaking views of the Tuscan and Ligurian landscapes to enjoy as you go.

This appealing outing gives you a chance to team a little gentle exercise with seeing the sights of Palermo, Sicily's capital city, on foot.

Then, climb the impressive stairway that leads to Sicily's largest castle, whose origins can be traced all the way back to the Carthaginians. As part of your visit, you'll get to watch a brief medieval enactment that even gets the kids involved when imposing the sword and oath, after which you'll move on to the on-site workshop-museum of peasant civilisation.
