I will never understand the negative reviews of MSC. My past 9 or 10 cruises have been with them, and I won't even consider another cruise line. I've been on Divina four times and you're correct - she's absolutely the most beautiful, elegant ship. MSC for Me!
@@timdalewag before I cruised with MSC, I read the reviews and I read some bad ones but I don’t see why! The ships are beautiful, great service, great food, a few negatives just like every cruise line but I would definitely cruise with MSC again! Thanks for watching, Tim!
Great video to see what can be done in 2 days! We’ve done MSC 7 times and just booked a mini cruise on Divina for October 2025 for less than €60pp pn! Can’t wait
Thank you, Tara! You’re totally right, you’ve just got to go go go! 😂 I liked MSC a lot, I don’t understand the bad reviews! Enjoy your cruise! That’s an amazing price! (You should make more vlogs 😁)
@@TravelWithBen121 Exactly! We enjoy other lines we have tried like Princess, Royal, NCL and Celebrity but sometimes for the price of MSC it can’t be beaten! The food is perfectly fine and we enjoy it not exquisite but I don’t expect that for price so we enjoy it a lot 🛳️ the more cruising the better! Haha thanks! I plan to do my vlogs but I always forget too busy enjoying the moment on the ships😂😂
Another informative video, Ben. That ship does look amazing. One observation: I know that the NCL app also lets someone tag select activities that will then appear on a "my list" so one can view only these chosen activities.
Ah, really enjoyed this one - I'm dying to try the MEGA SHORT cruises that MSC offer in the Med - such a great opportunity to get on and try a new ship without paying a fortune!
It was a great experience, Fraser! Amazing to see what the ship how to offer and what you get for the price is great! We definitely got our money back just from eating 😂 thank you for watching!
An inside cabin in Yacht Club is very affordable. Even more if 2 to 3 nights . Treat yourself! Enjoy life 🎉 Ive done the YIN category twice . 1 x on the Meraviligia and on the Seaview. But you need to book ahead. They soon go!
Nice cruise, Ben ! Our moms normally do not enjoy our best time even though they fed us and washed our diapers ! You are a wonderful son ! I can see you played soccer as a kid the way you handled the ball ! I went to the lake this morning. It was still dark I had two poles, coffee and nuts and watch the fogs rising slowly. I felt so relaxed , too !
It looks like you and your mom had so much fun, and of course the ship is going to be elegant if Sophia Loren is the inspiration. It’s a beautiful ship. 🚢 And I followed you on Instagram 📷
Your videos really make you feel like your their. Your Mother is so cute. What a Beautiful ship. Out of all the Msc Ships you traveled on which is the most Beautiful?
Hope you’re still enjoying your time on the Norwegian Prima, Ben! Thanks for keeping us occupied with videos while you are traveling! Just finished my first solo cruise which started coincidental on the same day. (I swear it had nothing to do with a guy on the internet extolling the virtues of solo cruising.) 😀 Strangely enough, we ran into the MSC Divina in port! Take care!
When did you go on this cruise? We just watched the safety video in our cabin, then called #881 and waited to go to our muster area and scan our key cards . Then we we're good to go. No need to sit and watch it again😮
MSC have and are, sending the remainder of their best ships to the USA, which I understand , they are trying to win the market there. But as European, I'm a tad miffed.
@@TravelWithBen121 they so lied🤣🤣🤣🤣maybe I should go back and have another look...but Sophia is famous for her dark brown hair that she wears down in waves...oh well..not so important in the big picture I guess...
your mom! haha she knew you when you were little before you had furry arms 😀 the buffet has so many colorful tiny foods....i suppose slopping a giant ladle of stew onto a metal partitioned tray would ruin the classiness what did you do for ship work? did you dance on a stage? that seems like a fun and tiring job... "these announcements take so long...it was bad before but for goodness sake now in dolphin? i don't even see any in the audience....humph" i know i know...just because someone looks human doesn't mean they weren't raised by dolphins 🙂
Your mom is gorgeous! Soo sweet ya'll went on vacation together. ❤
@@vbmorris81 she says thank you so much, Vera! 😁 we had a great cruise for sure! ☺️

Your Mum looks beautiful and young. I would have taken you both for a couple! Do you ever get people thinking that?😊❤
No 😂
Love this!! so many things to do on ship, I missed a lot but, next time 👍🏻🤣
@@shirleyjones270 it was amazing, Shirley! Beautiful ship 😁

A beautiful ship and fun cruise with your mum. It was so short, I think you owe her another one. 😀
I agree, Fredwina 😊
Ben you seem to be so excited to have your Mom with you🫶🏼She’s beautiful!
We had an amazing time, Cheryl! 😁 she says thank you!!
That is a beautiful shop!
I agree, Pamela!

@@TravelWithBen121 Thanks, Ben ! " The journey is long !" From Chaucer !
Got your beautiful eyes from your beautiful Mom eh?😍
@@ychaps yes, I did 😂
Thank you so much for your reply. Divina it is. Ive cruised Msc Seashore was opulent.
Amazing!
Thank you for your reply. Divina it is
Great!
It looks like you and your mom had so much fun, and of course the ship is going to be elegant if Sophia Loren is the inspiration. It’s a beautiful ship. 🚢
And I followed you on Instagram 📷
I agree! Thank you 😊
A world cruise 🔥 yes
I would do it! 😊
Your videos really make you feel like your their. Your Mother is so cute. What a Beautiful ship. Out of all the Msc Ships you traveled on which is the most Beautiful?
Thanks, Gene! I’ve only been on the Orchestra and Divina. Divina is nicer 😊
Seems to be the same layout as fantasia

HAHA 😂 thanks, Jeanne! I hope your cruise was so great! 😊
I have been unable to find any solo cabins available for 2024 or 2025😢
What cruise line and what area? I booked about six months in advance, but they upgraded my room so I never saw the solo cabin. Thanks!
"who you gonna call?" LOL am I the only one who caught that?
@@eealec2138 no one else mentioned it so yes, you are 😂
When did you go on this cruise? We just watched the safety video in our cabin, then called #881 and waited to go to our muster area and scan our key cards . Then we we're good to go. No need to sit and watch it again😮
This cruise was at the beginning of May 😊 maybe different ships do things differently but our experience regarding the safety drill wasn’t great!
@@TravelWithBen121 ohhh. We did the same drill in the USA as in Europe (Seaview from Barcelona)
MSC have and are, sending the remainder of their best ships to the USA, which I understand , they are trying to win the market there. But as European, I'm a tad miffed.
MSC is definitely trying to compete but they need a fix a few things first! But we enjoyed it very much 😊
Not Sophia Loren... wasn't it Gina Lollobrigida???
@@ychaps Sophia Loren is god mother of the MSC Divina, Gina is god mother of the MSC Lirica 😁
@@TravelWithBen121 I was so sure that picture you showed was Gina...it honest to gawd was not Sophia 🤔
@@ychaps they told me it’s Sophia!
@@TravelWithBen121 they so lied🤣🤣🤣🤣maybe I should go back and have another look...but Sophia is famous for her dark brown hair that she wears down in waves...oh well..not so important in the big picture I guess...
You have an unusual accent, I can’t quite place it. Bit of a South African twang, maybe USA.
It's a mystery, Jonathan!
Mom!? Whaaaaat mum looks like she’s in her 20’s
Your comment made my mum very happy 😁😁
Sooo the first class aka yacht club will get the better life boats if the ship goes down 🤔🙊☠️
It depends how fast you are, Dorothy :)
your mom! haha she knew you when you were little before you had furry arms 😀
the buffet has so many colorful tiny foods....i suppose slopping a giant ladle of stew onto a metal partitioned tray would ruin the classiness
what did you do for ship work? did you dance on a stage? that seems like a fun and tiring job...
