What is it really like trying to get a drink in the bars on MSC Virtuosa when the ship is completely full? Before we came on board, we'd watched plenty of videos and heard that the bars could be packed, seats were hard to find and getting served could be a struggle. So, during our week-long MSC Virtuosa cruise to Norway, we decided to find out for ourselves. Over two days, we visit several of the bars around MSC Virtuosa at different times of the evening, including the Infinity Bar, Starship Club, Atelier Bar, Studio Bar and Sky Lounge. We also take a look at how easy it is to get served, what the atmosphere is like and what's included in the drinks package. But that's not all. As the cruise goes on, we start to question whether we've actually understood our drinks package properly. And on Day 4, we discover that we've made a pretty big mistake... We also visit Måløy in Norway, enjoy a beautiful Norwegian sailaway, have breakfast in the main restaurant, take a look at the buffet, and see the MSC Virtuosa theatre show. This is part of our MSC Virtuosa cruise series, so if you're considering sailing on MSC Virtuosa, hopefully our experience will give you a realistic idea of what it's like on board — the good, the not-so-good and the things that caught us completely by surprise. Have you sailed on MSC Virtuosa? How did you find the bars? Were they as busy as you expected, and what was your experience with the drinks packages? Let us know in the comments — we always love hearing your experiences and it helps other cruisers too. Thanks for joining us!
