Creator's Key Takeaways

I had my own version of a poop cruise.

I absolutely love the fact that MSC use Horizon Port, which is the nearest port to Southampton Central Railway Station.

The show itself absolutely amazing.

I thought the food was substandard.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Pre-book shows to save money.
If you have hand luggage, you can disembark at any time.
