The MSC Musica is set to dock in Cape Town on Wednesday (12 March) for the second time since 2018.
About 3200 passengers will disembark at the Cape Town Cruise Terminal at the V&A Waterfront.

Cruise holidays are unique, and you don't have to pack much. "Your hotel moves with you," explains Volk.
Cruising brings a large number of people into an area, impacting local economies significantly, adds Volk.
"It's really a cosmopolitan space and it really encompasses what we all want to see which is a great party, a great celebration had by all celebrating life and enjoying themselves," says Volk.
