“Cruising South Africa with MSC Cruises: Creating Memories, Inspiring Dreams for more than 30 years!” – Charles Robbie III – General Manager of CSA
We are the…
Official MSC Cruises Shuttle Service since 1992
In 1992, our Cruising South Africa founder, Charles Edward Robbie III, bought the life-long shuttle contract for the then Starlight Cruises from his dear friend Mrs Cassie Perioli and the acquisition was granted by Mr Alan Foggitt of Starlight Cruises.
When Starlight Cruises was taken over by MSC Cruises, we continued as the official contractor to them. We have now safely conveyed more than 1.5 million passengers to cruise ships in Durban and Cape Town without a major incident and we are truly honored and proud of this amazing achievement.
