MSC Cruises introduced a new shore excursion program named Family Explorer Club which is specifically designed to engage parents and kids in joint activities during port calls in Northern Europe and the Mediterranean.
The new interactive activities turn young passengers into “explorers" and “detectives” with the goal of accomplishing a mission that is unique to the culture and history of a destination. Children set out on the trips armed with explorer maps and incentives for accomplishing the tasks. The shore excursions start later in the morning and last 3 to 4 hours.
The Family Explorer Program rolls out to MSC Seaside and line's new MSC Seaview, due to debut in June with some noteworthy new features. The cruise ship will welcome approx 1,300 kids on each voyage this summer. MSC Seaview will also introduce Dore Summer, a new mascot who will feature in new exploration game onboard. New teen activities, including Summer Selfie Contest, are also coming soon along with a live family show for kids ans parents, DOREMI Summer Game and DOREMI Summer Parade.
The webseries, “Kelly & Kloe on board… a Seaview vacation,” is to be filmed onboard MSC Seaview during summer months and all young cruisers will have the chance to audition and become the next stars.
Line's Kids Sail Free Program provides discounts and free passage on some itineraries, based on the age of the kid.
