When I was at cruise 360 I took part in a seminar that was all about touring the Galapagos with Celebrity. They have a new ship that has just debuted called the Celebrity Flora. This ship will ONLY be in the Galapagos, she was designed just for that area and she sails year-round
Every angle, every view every deck of this ship will showcase the view and the wonderful scenery that is the Galapagos.
Picture yourself sitting here enjoying the sunset while you feast on your dinner, and soak up the view. I wouldn’t want to leave!
See those steps that lead to the zodiacs? That makes it so much easier to get in and out from Flora’s aft. If you have limited mobility or reduced mobility these are for you!
If you love nature, then get extra SD cards for your camera!
I would use my DSLR and get those once in a lifetime shots!
My husband used to do wood carvings, particularly waterfowl, so I know he would love to bird watch here.
There is one bird called a Blue Footed Boobie. The Blue-Footed Boobies are one of three Booby species found on Galapagos. They are large, distinctive birds, found along the Eastern Pacific coastline where they often nest on small islands with rocky coasts. … Despite their clumsiness on land, Boobies are extremely agile in the air.

This picture is not taken at a high zoom level, the wildlife here is not afraid of humans at all, they will walk right up to you. You can honestly get the most amazing photos while on this cruise. There are so many awe-inspiring things to see!
Tip — invest in a good camera, you will get irreplaceable photos here.
The Celebrity Flora and Celebrity Xpedition sail on 7-day itineraries, but there are 10-16 night adventures.
There are pre-cruise and post hotels included, some are even taking you to Machu Picchu.
As well as your flight from Quito.
Once we get you to Quito then it is smooth sailing from then onward.
In fact, with the new promo out right now, you get free airfare from many gateways.
So, you might even fly free.
