About your MSC Cruises cruise on MSC Lirica

Make the most of your upcoming MSC Cruises sailing aboard the MSC Lirica with high-quality, top-rated tours and experiences matched to your exact itinerary.

After departing Piraeus on 08 Dec 2025, MSC Lirica will take you and your travel party to remarkable destinations - and FindMyExcursions is here to help you experience more in each port.

We've partnered with the world’s largest tour marketplaces, including Viator, to offer a curated selection of excursions that go beyond what’s available in your MSC Cruises planner. Our intelligent matching system analyses your port times and schedule to recommend only the best-rated, time-compatible experiences — so you can relax, explore, and get back to the ship with confidence.

From scenic adventures and cultural immersions to foodie tours and historical walks, each excursion is selected because it's highly-rated by previous users, and tailored to fit the time you actually have ashore. With convenient port pick-up and drop-off included in most experiences — and a “Worry-Free Shore Excursion” policy available on selected tours — you’ll enjoy a seamless, stress-free outing every time you step off the ship.

Best of all, our selection often includes more variety — and better value — than the limited options offered directly by your cruise line.

Let FindMyExcursions turn your MSC Cruises cruise aboard the MSC Lirica into a truly unforgettable journey. Start browsing now and discover the excursions that will take your trip to the next level — port by port.

About Piraeus

For cruise passengers, Athens is where ancient history blends with vibrant modern life. The iconic Parthenon, perched atop the Acropolis, has stood for over 2,500 years and offers stunning views of the bustling city below. Within easy walking distance are the ancient Agora, Roman sites, and charming districts like Plaka, with its narrow streets, traditional taverns, and Cycladic-style houses. Explore the lively Monastiraki market or relax in tree-lined cafés near Syntagma Square. The National Archaeological Museum displays Greece’s rich heritage, while nightlife thrives in trendy areas such as Psirri and Gazi. Though Athens can feel chaotic, its mix of history, culture and contemporary energy makes every visit worthwhile. Whether admiring timeless ruins or browsing vibrant markets, cruise travellers will find Athens a fascinating and memorable stop on their Mediterranean voyage.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the ‘Worry-Free Shore Excursion’ on some of the excursions?

Viator’s Worry-Free Shore Excursion policy means that if your tour runs late and you miss your ship, they’ll arrange transport to the next port at no additional cost to you. This offer applies only to shore excursions specifically marked with the ‘Worry-Free’ badge on Viator. When you use FindMyExcursions, we help match you with these eligible tours where available, so you can book with confidence knowing you're covered if unexpected delays occur.

Why choose FindMyExcursions?

FindMyExcursions is designed by cruise travellers for cruise travellers. Here’s what sets us apart:

  • We match your itinerary to top-rated excursions from Viator, one of the most trusted global tour platforms.
  • We filter by time-in-port, so you only see tours that fit your schedule.
  • Many tours offer port pick-up and drop-off, removing the guesswork.
  • We highlight tours with excellent reviews, local expertise, and clear cancellation policies.
  • You book direct with Viator, benefiting from their trusted payment platform and customer service.

In short, we make discovering and booking cruise-compatible tours easier, safer, and more tailored to your plans.

What are the risks of booking with third-party providers?

When you book excursions independently (i.e., outside of the cruise line), you’re responsible for managing your time ashore. If you miss the ship’s departure, the cruise will not wait, and you’ll have to make your own way to the next port.

That’s why FindMyExcursions only features tours that fit within your port timings, with enough buffer to get you back in good time. Many also offer port pick-up/drop-off for added convenience and peace of mind. You get all the flexibility of third-party booking, with smart, cruise-specific filtering built in.

Will I get a refund if the ship doesn’t dock or our itinerary changes?

If your ship is unable to dock or your itinerary changes at short notice, most tour providers on Viator offer a full refund if you cancel at least 24 hours in advance. However, cancellations within 24 hours usually aren't refundable. We recommend checking each tour’s cancellation policy before booking, as they can vary. Also, having comprehensive cruise travel insurance is key. Some policies may cover missed ports or excursions, but this usually depends on the circumstances and how much notice the cruise line provided. We’re not qualified to offer legal or financial advice so always check the fine print of your policy or speak to your insurer for specifics.
