Jan 08, 2007
FORT LAUDERDALE, FLA. (Jan. 8, 2007) – Time is running out to savor the Brazilian carnival spirit with MSC Cruises.
In Brazil, Carnival is the celebration of the year, a colorful mix of tradition and folklore, of ancient customs, beliefs and modern rhythms. A nation dedicated to enjoyment explodes in February, showcasing colorful processions and exciting music.
Cruising with MSC Cruises is the best way to experience the Brazilian carnival spirit. Showcase your carnival outfit as you enjoy the onboard masquerade and the selection of the Queen of Carnival before diving into a sumptuous pasta buffet at midnight. The night continues to the sounds of samba in the disco until dawn as you watch the most amazing sunrise while cruising along the South American coast. Relaxation is also available at the Beauty Centre / Spa and in the Jacuzzis on the pool deck.
Savor the Italian style and take pleasure in the onboard facilities. Enjoy the finest Italian hospitality and traditional cuisine in an ambiance reminiscent of the top European hotels.
Hop on board an MSC Cruise for an exhilarating and unforgettable experience. MSC Armonia’s Carnival sailing is sold out, but limited space is still available on MSC Sinfonia’s 9-night sailing that departs Rio de Janeiro Feb. 15 and visits Brazil, Uruguay and Argentina.
MSC Sinfonia’s first call is at Santos. The ship then cruises for a day before arriving in Uruguay’s luxurious harbour town of Punta del Este, known for its upscale hotels, fine dining, and upscale boutiques. From here, you head to Buenos Aires, the exciting Argentinean capital.
As you head back to Brazil, the ship calls at the island of Ilhabela, where you can soak up the sun on a magnificent beach, explore the shops or ride a bike along the shoreline. Next stop is Buzios. Once a fishing village, Buzios has been transformed into a popular resort, complete with a championship golf course, art galleries, excellent restaurants and beautiful beaches. Return to Rio Feb. 24.
