8-Day Canary Islands Cruise Aboard MSC EURIBIA

**MSC Euribia – A Very Disappointing Experience**

Our experience on MSC Euribia was extremely disappointing. The panels inside our cabin made unbearable creaking noises, making it very difficult to sleep at night. We reported the problem, but the solution offered was unsuitable for us.

The ship also feels overcrowded and unable to comfortably accommodate so many passengers. There are enormous queues almost everywhere, making it difficult to relax and enjoy the facilities.

On top of that, there is a constant feeling that MSC is trying to squeeze as much money as possible out of its passengers through endless upselling.

Overall, a frustrating and exhausting experience rather than the relaxing holiday we expected. I would think twice before booking with MSC again.

Highly un recommend and the most important feels like my money was spent for nothing. The number of pepole is so big that guest relations doesn't have a chance . It appears they knew about the room problem but they sold in anyway

As a first-time cruiser, I realize this travel style suits families or those with limited mobility, but it severely lacks authenticity. Small Norwegian villages were completely swamped by passengers, though larger cities handled the crowds better.

The ship feels like an inescapable tourist trap. The commercial vibe is relentless: unexpected default service fees, constant upsell (Spa, food, drinks), and a €50 diner package where our prepaid drink package is than invalid, which only make sense if your goal is to rip off people.

Cabins were clean and the staff friendly, though bar service was disorganized with queues at big events. Main dining was unmemorable, and the buffet was a crowded, noisy nightmare during rush hours. The pools and gym are simply too small for these crowds.

Excursions were pricey but well-organized escapes from the fake, Americanized "Club Med" entertainment. Overall, this offered poor value for money. I prefer independent travel.

Stay away from this.

Terrible service, rude staff pushing to get tipped and insisting on getting you to spend more on wine and drinks.

Our first cabin was right next to an engine room where we couldn't sleep and it took us a long time to get assigned another one.

Their way of saying sorry? One spa day when they initially promised the whole week.

We also contacted the customer service to try and get a different time slot for dinner service, imagine our surprise when on board we learn that we still had the early slot? They openly lied to us and this alone is not acceptable.

And now we're stranded in Flam, which is the most disorganized, horrible port I've ever been to. Because of an accident nobody's leaving this place wasting one more day doing nothing instead of visiting.

Will never book again a cruise like this and you should avoid it too.
