NATURE’S FINEST

Sail in Darwin’s Footsteps via Celebrity Cruises.

BY AVERY BREDESEN

IMAGINE a place you can walk among wildlife unfazed by the human presence. A place where you can snorkel in the playground of sea lions and come eye-to-eye with giant tortoises. Now you can traverse the path of renowned naturalist Charles Darwin and witness the magnificence of the Galápagos Islands for yourself on a journey aboard the Celebrity Flora .

MUST-SEA ENTERTAINMENT OPTIONS

The Galápagos Islands and their unique flora and fauna have been the subject of study and conservation for decades. Many of the plant and animal species calling these islands home aren't found anywhere else in the world. During your adventure, choose two shore excursions per day and discover this awe-inspiring archipelago alongside certified naturalists and expert guides.

The tender to the island is your morning commute, where each day you’ll find yourself surrounded by wildlife. Snorkel and kayak among colorful schools of fish and graceful sea turtles. Spot marine iguanas, blue-footed boobies, and the only penguin species north of the equator. Trek unearthly landscapes. Or simply kick back and unwind on the observatory or deckside bar. It’s your vacation — experience it as actively or leisurely as you choose.

Get Back On Board

After your exhilarating excursions, return home to the luxurious all-suite Celebrity Flora , the first and only resort at sea in Ecuador to receive a Forbes Travel Guide Four-Star Rating. Built to sail the Galápagos Islands with the latest environmental technologies, this eco-friendly vessel helps protect the delicate environment in which it sails — proving you can travel responsibly and luxuriously.

Each suite faces outward for sea and island views and features luxurious amenities and full room automation, letting you control everything with the touch of a button. Bask on your private veranda, enjoy a stocked mini-bar with your favorite beverages, and stay hydrated with an in-room drinking water filtration system.

Want It All

All-inclusive means nearly everything you desire is at your fingertips — including delectable dining menus crafted by a Michelinstarred chef, refreshing beverages, unlimited Wi-Fi, and the superlative service Celebrity is known for. Your journey awaits, and it promises to be nothing short of extraordinary.
