Schedule

Catering “Full Board” in the main restaurants just on board the ship!

Program:

1 day

Early arrival in Genoa.

Registration / Alarms / Meeting for managers.
Dinner.
Out to sea
Dinner.
Night on the ship.

Genoa the Magnificent, Genoa “Queen of the Seas”: since the prosperity of the ancient Genoese maritime republic has flowed a lot of water. However, the charm of this city remains unchanged. In addition to the famous aquarium (one of the largest aquariums in the world), a wide selection of museums, a huge number of historical and cultural monuments and the famous historical center of the city, one of the most saturated attractions in Italy (after Venice).

2 day – day at sea

Rehearsals of collectives / Competition on nominations / Exhibition of works / Plein Air.
Disco.
Night on the ship.

3 day

Arrival in Malaga, Spain (excursion for an additional fee *).
Rehearsals of collectives / Competition on nominations / Exhibition of works / Plein Air.
Disco.
Night on the ship.

Malaga is a major port city with a charming historical center, which can be explored in a day, and modern areas with high-rise buildings and large shopping centers. Two popular tourist activities logically flow from here: shopping and walking through the winding streets with lots of greenery and flowers. But first of all, Malaga is a resort with excellent beaches, the same hotels and a vibrant nightlife. For a holiday with children, the local coast is not suitable for one hundred percent – the sea may be chilly for them, and everyone else will enjoy the combination of hot air and refreshing water.

4 day

Arriving at the port of Casablanca.
Excursion (extra charge *). Creative meetings.
Disco.

The city of Casablanca, whose name in Spanish means “White City”, is primarily the main business and economic center of Morocco. In addition, Casablanca is considered to be the city of avant-garde and high skyscrapers, and by its appearance and way of life it looks more like a southern European metropolis.

5 day – a day at sea

Rehearsals of collectives / Competition on nominations / Exhibition of works / Plein Air.
Disco.

6 day

Rehearsals of collectives / Competition on nominations / Exhibition of works / Plein Air.
Arriving at the port of Lisbon.
Excursion (extra charge *).
Disco.

Lisbon is the most western capital of Europe. The European continent ends at Cape Roca not far from the city, and then only the endless Atlantic Ocean extends beyond it. In Lisbon there are not so many historical sights – in 1755 the city was almost completely destroyed by an earthquake and the tsunami and fires caused by it, but very soon it was revived from the ruins according to the design of the Marquis de Pombal. Nevertheless, in Lisbon at every step you can find reminders of the imperial past of the city: the majestic cathedrals, elegant palaces, pompous monuments to kings and marquis.

7 day – day at sea

Rehearsals of collectives / Competition on nominations / Exhibition of works / Plein Air.
Disco.

8 day

Arriving at the port of Barcelona.
Excursion (extra charge *). Creative meetings.
Disco.

Proud, narcissistic, explosive, full of geniuses and mediocrity, falling in love and in love, tiring and tired … all this is about Barcelona – one of the most beautiful cities not only in Europe, but in the whole world. Barcelona is Dali’s mad energy, Gaudi’s freakish architecture, stunning outfits, active cycling traffic, awesome parties and endless sangria. It would be insane to begin listing in the introduction to the Catalan capital at least part of its attractions: they are found here at every step, the ancient Roman port breathes history, every stone is ready to tell its legend, and all modern monuments deserve at least a hymn or ode. In short, Barcelona is a city of arts.

9 day

Arrival at the port of Marseille.
Excursion (extra charge *). Creative meetings. Farewell friendly speeches.
Disco.

Marseille is the capital of Provence, one of the oldest cities in France and the second most populated locality after Paris.
On the territory of modern Marseilles lived 30 thousand years ago, in the caves not far from the famous bay-columns rock paintings belonging to that time were found.
Marseille was founded in 600 BC. Greeks called Massalia. Legend has it that the king of the Ligurian tribes was looking for the bridegroom for his daughter Dzhiptis and convened a banquet on this occasion. Dzhiptis chose the Greek Protis, handed him a cup of wine. As a wedding gift, the newlyweds turned out to be part of the coast, where the city of Massalia was laid.

10 day

Breakfast.
Return to Genoa.
Transfer to the airport / hotel accommodation (for an additional fee *)

Interesting about the ship

Initially, the liner was ordered by the son of Muammar Gaddafi Hannibal for 565 million euros for personal use, as the world’s largest private ship.

It was supposed to be called “Phenicia”, have luxurious interiors and even a 120-ton shark aquarium. After the events in Libya, the unfinished vessel was left without a customer.

In June 2011, STX France began to look for a new buyer. In March 2012, it was announced that an agreement was reached with MSC Cruises to purchase a ship for 550 million euros and its new name MSC Preziosa. A year later, the liner was solemnly transferred to the company.
