Cruising the Galápagos Islands

A Celebrity Cruises® expedition voyage to the Galápagos Islands is a bucket-list adventure for aspiring world explorers. Choose from 7-night sailings focused on the islands, or opt for a 10-to-16-night in-depth journey that also visits Quito, Lima and Machu Picchu. Either way, you’ll discover a place unchanged by time, where blue-footed boobies, giant tortoises, fur seals and other fantastical creatures abound.

A Typical Day on a Galápagos Islands Cruise

Aboard the Celebrity Flora, the first all-suites mega-yacht built exclusively for the Galápagos Islands, you’ll start the day with a leisurely breakfast, then don wetsuits for the day’s adventures. A tender will take you to the first island on the itinerary, where you can relax at the beach, snorkel or take a guided hike to get to know the incredible inhabitants of this island up close. On the hike, you just might stare into the eyes of a Galápagos marine iguana and walk among a colony of penguins. 

You’ll return to the ship around noon for a freshly prepared lunch as you recall the morning’s adventure. As you dine, the ship will smoothly sail to the next island destination. After lunch, you’ll suit back up, hop back into the tender and prepare for more amazing experiences. What’s on the agenda this afternoon? From white-sand beaches to black fields of lava flows, each island presents unique discoveries.

As the sun sets, you’ll meet your fellow explorers at the bar on board to exchange tales over cocktails. Next, enjoy a quick briefing about what the next day holds before settling down for a gourmet dinner of fresh seafood packed with incredible local flavors. Conclude the day with a nightcap before returning to your spacious haven, already dreaming about tomorrow’s adventures.
