Top 5 reasons cruise from Southampton;

1. There's no need to travel abroad to board - It's easy to travel straight to Southampton cruise port by car, taxi, or public transport, such as coach or train.

2. You can pack as much as you like - With no air travel (or any other international transfers), you won’t be restricted by airline baggage rules.

3. It’s easy for all members of the family - Traveling to the port with babies or young children can be difficult, while air travel may also not be an option for elderly or less-abled family members. Departing from Southampton immediately solves that stress when living in the U.K. and means the whole family, whatever age and interest, can enjoy the cruise holiday of a lifetime.

4. Explore the local area beforehand - Planning your arrival in Southampton with some extra time to spare before embarkation is a great idea. This means you can explore the old port city itself, taking in the likes of Sir Harold Hillier Gardens, Southampton City Art Gallery, the Tudor House or even the nearby historic city of Winchester. 

5. Then explore incredible destinations further afield - With so many destinations to choose from, deciding where to cruise to first will be the most difficult part of your holiday.


Your Ship: MSC Virtuosa

MSC Virtuosa’s namesake comes from the word virtuoso, meaning someone highly skilled in any field of activity, and so MSC Virtuosa was named to pay homage to the skill and expertise of the MSC Cruises architects and shipyard partners at Les Chantiers de l’Atlantique who designed and built this innovative class of ships. This new cruise ship is one of the two largest in MSC Cruises’ fleet, along with her sister ship MSC Grandiosa, boasting an impressive array of guest features all coming together in perfect harmony to deliver the ultimate cruise holiday experience.

Environmental Stewardship:

MSC Virtuosa is one of the most environmentally-sound ships at sea and an energy-efficient role model for modern cruising.

Air emissions

• 98% reduction of sulphur oxide (SOx) and 90% reduction of nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions thanks to the most advanced technologies.

Energy efficiency

• Wide range of energy-saving equipment to maximise efficiency such as smart heating, ventilation and air conditioning.

Wastewater & Protecting Marine Life

• Advanced wastewater treatment system with higher purification standards than most wastewater treatment facilities ashore.
