Creator's Key Takeaways
The MSC Symphonia just proved that sometimes smaller can actually mean better.
The intimate size creates a more personal cruise experience where you're not constantly fighting crowds or waiting in long lines.
The ship shows its age in some areas, particularly in the stateroom decor and some public spaces that feel dated compared to newer vessels.
If you prefer a more traditional cruise experience with personal service, and a relaxed atmosphere, this ship delivers well.
