MSC Cruises has revealed plans to return to Tunisia starting from this summer.
The Italian cruise line initially cancelled cruises in March to Egypt, Tunisia and Bahrain through winter 2012. But MSC chief executive Pierfrancesco Vago said it would be calling at the Tunis port of La Goulette on a regular basis, starting from July.
“The country is back to normal, security is now stable and we are glad to offer our guests one of their favourite destinations again for this summer’s seven-night cruises in the Mediterranean.

“Tourism represents one of the biggest resources for this country’s economic revival and we are proud to be making our contribution.”
MSC Fantasia and MSC Lirica are scheduled to return to La Goulette on July 5, with MSC Splendida and MSC Sinfonia calling at the port the day after.
The line will also be offering Tunis as a winter destination on MSC Splendida’s six seven-night cruise sailing between December 2011 and March 2012, departing from Genoa.
