Gluten-free diet on the boat - no problem!

Do you have problems with gluten and are you afraid that you won't eat on the boat or that a sudden allergic reaction will ruin your holiday? Now you don't have to. The ship's chefs do not forget about diners with special requirements. Riviera Tour has now prepared English translations of gluten-free menus, which we will add free of charge to your cruise booking if you wish. The only requirement is to mention this fact already when concluding the travel contract.

Clients with food intolerances and allergies have been increasing in recent months. Therefore, based on the increased number of requests, we have decided to focus more on this issue. These clients are at risk of not being able to enjoy their dream holiday as much as they would like because of food issues.

That's why we decided to translate the basic menus of the restaurants served on MSC Cruises' ships and make their holidays more enjoyable by removing the uncertainty of possible wrong choices due to translation. No more worrying about eating the wrong thing and suffering for days worrying about the food they bring you. With our translations, you'll enjoy your vacation on a boat with everything, including meals prepared by the world's best chefs.

We've tried and tested the gluten-free menus on MSC Cruises ships, so we know what we're offering. The choice of dishes is truly vast and the meals are prepared in such a way that you will hardly notice any difference from the "classic" menus. Every day you can choose from gluten-free breakfasts, lunches and dinners, which the chefs prepare in a separate part of the kitchen to avoid contamination with other food.

On request, it is possible to arrange, for example, vegetarian and lactose-free meals, or meals for diabetics (this type of food must also be requested when concluding the travel contract). Gluten-free menus (breakfast, lunch and dinner) in the main restaurants are available on most ships. Only on MSC Armonia, MSC Sinfonia, MSC Opera and MSC Lirica then guests will find a limited selection of pre-prepared gluten-free snacks such as cookies, croissants, biscuits and muffins.
