Itinerary

Day 1 Dec 20, 2026 Los Angeles, CA Departs 16:00 Los Angeles is a huge city with a thousand facets and attractions, one of the most stimulating urban centers that can be visited ever. Your MSC World Cruise will take you on the discovery of a place that has no equal, with its golden Pacific beaches, theme parks from the film world and walks down Sunset Boulevard with the Walk of Fame and its various museums. Los Angeles is perfect for those who enjoy shopping, entertainment and relaxation for a truly unforgettable vacation. What will the main stops on your MSC Cruises excursion be? No doubt a visit to Beverly Hills, the exclusive center of fashion and beauty where you can admire a multitude of homes in full California style. This residential area is famous for its proximity to Hollywood and for being home to many movie stars, as well as for hosting some of the most beautiful restaurants, shops and hotels in the world. And how could you not visit impressive Malibu, the seaside town in the west of the coast of Los Angeles. The beaches here are the best for swimming and sunbathing, thanks to the beautiful landscape that accompanies them, the jagged mountains of the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area. Not far from Malibu is Santa Monica, another glittering attraction known for its famous Luna Park that was built on the pier in 1909. This bustling city is also popular for its climate, the beauty of the coast, the efficiency of its services, its clubs, shops and lively pedestrian streets that are full of street artists who have made Santa Monica one of the main destinations of Los Angeles. With MSC Cruises, you will have the chance to see one of the most beautiful cities in the world with your own eyes. Los Angeles, CA port guide Search cruises visiting Los Angeles, CA

Day 4 Dec 23, 2026 Mazatlan, Mexico 07:00 – 17:00 10.0 hrs ashore Book a Mexico Cruise with Holland America Line and sail to the port city of Mazatlán, where the best of traditional Mexican architecture, food and culture is found alongside contemporary conveniences, amenities and attractions. There's a reason why Americans and Canadians flock here, particularly in winter: It's a warm and welcoming place with plenty to keep visitors entertained for a vacation getaway. Cruise to Mazatlán and explore an array of activities on a Mazatlán shore excursion. There really is something for everyone here, from golfing, fishing and zip lining to sampling agave-based spirits on a distillery tour or learning more about local history at the archaeological museum. There are plenty of cultural opportunities, too, from performances at the Teatro Ángela Peralta to witnessing death-defying cliff dives that will make you hold your breath until divers resurface from the churning surf. On a cruise to Mazatlán don’t forgot to taste some local cuisine. Mazatlán keeps visitors' appetites sated; thanks to the city's coastal location, seafood is freshly caught, and shrimp-based dishes are a particular specialty in local restaurants. And if you can't head home without a souvenir, there's locally made liquor or handmade crafts that can fit neatly into your luggage.

Day 5 Dec 24, 2026 Puerto Vallarta, Mexico 07:00 – 15:00 8.0 hrs ashore Located in the center of Mexico's Pacific coast, Puerto Vallarta is one of the country's most picturesque cities and holiday destinations. Its cobblestone streets and red-roofed, white adobe-style buildings nestle between palm-covered mountains and the vast Banderas Bay. Stretches of white sand beaches are among the best in Mexico and the climate is consistently warm and sunny. For years, vacationers who had discovered the beauty of Puerto Vallarta tried to keep the "good news" from spreading. The arrival of a major film company and two of the world's best-known stars, Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton, changed Puerto Vallarta from a laid-back town to a famous getaway destination almost overnight. In addition to its visual appeal, Puerto Vallarta offers a variety of cultural entertainment and a lively nightlife. Take time to see the sights of the city. Downtown spreads around the small Isla Cuale, which lies in the middle of the Cuale River; the heart of the city is a few blocks north around the Municipal Square. A crown-topped cathedral, dedicated to the Virgin of Guadalupe, rises behind the square; a wide seaside promenade, known as the Malecon, hugs the oceanfront. A seahorse statue welcomes visitors to the downtown beach area. The statue and the prominent church tower have become symbols of Puerto Vallarta, or PV as locals call their town for short. Puerto Vallarta grew from an existing fishing village with a history dating back some 100 years. Because of its veritable heritage as a Mexican pueblo, the town tends to offer more of the country's artistic and cultural tradition than other Mexican resorts. The origin of the charro (traditional costume), the national beverage tequila and the typical music of the mariachi bands are credited to Puerto Vallarta. It is considered the most Mexican of all the country's resort towns. Puerto Vallarta, Mexico port guide Search cruises visiting Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

Day 6 Dec 25, 2026 Cabo San Lucas 06:30 – 14:00 7.5 hrs ashore Found at the tip of Baja California, Cabo San Lucas is where the desert meets the ocean. Although it has received a makeover of modern Americana in recent years, this place is still a world away from everywhere else in Mexico. A trip to Cabo (the San Lucas is optional) will not leave you disappointed. With swaying palm trees, turquoise seas and long ribbons of white sand, this is a resort that ticks every box: great food, great nightlight which equal great times – for some. Others may prefer to scratch the surface just a bit deeper and travel along the peninsula that is known for its dramatic scenery of desert terrain and rugged coastline marked by many unusual formations. The sweeping views of the bay are simply sensational. A quick turn inward takes you to San Jose del Cabo, Cabo San Lucas’ older and more grown up sister. Offering a very much calmer and much more authentic atmosphere, just half an hour along the coast leaves you in its desert terrain, and leaves a very different impression from the lively beachfront bars and cafes of San Lucas. Perhaps one of the most stunning ways to see Cabo though is from the water. With the Arco de Cabo San Lucas featuring highly on many must-see lists, a trip around the bay is a must. The braver among you might also like to indulge their inner adrenalin junkie and swim with whale sharks – a memorable and totally risk-free experience if there ever was one. End your day of sightseeing with a fabulous sunset, a (tequila) sunrise in hand, watching the fishermen come home from their adventures.
