Celebrity Flora Onboard Experience
Cabins Every cabin onboard Celebrity Flora is a Suite with floor to ceiling windows and balconies showing you the wondrous environment that surrounds you. This ship has been designed to immerse you in the fantastic nature of the Galapagos. Not only are all rooms luxurious suites but you can even connect two together for friends and family.
Itineraries and Excursions
There are two main Celebrity Flora itineraries to choose from, the Inner Loop itinerary and Outer Loop option. Both stop at varying points throughout the Galapagos Islands and you have the choice from 7 to 15 nights. In addition, as part of your fly cruise, you can add a trip to Machu Picchu as the grand finale to your Celebrity Galapagos adventure.
There will be land excursions at awe-inspiring locations throughout the cruise with an expert guide. These passionate naturalists will show you the fantastic range of the archipelago’s landscapes and wildlife from marine iguanas to the birds that inspired Darwin’s theory of evolution. There will be hikes and snorkelling sessions to observe the wondrous variety of species inhabiting the Galapagos and boat rides back and forth and to otherwise inaccessible locations in the trusty zodiacs.
There are two dining venues to choose from onboard Celebrity Flora. Guests can either choose the
Seaside Restaurant which serves breakfast, lunch and dinner, and the
Ocean Grill which gives you the chance to enjoy deliciously fresh and locally sourced seafood each day. Here you can dine under the stars and enjoy a view as fantastic as the cuisine. Of course, other smaller refreshments are always available, as is full 24 hour
room service.
The Discovery Lounge is the social centre of life aboard Celebrity Flora. Here you can mix and mingle with your fellow guests at the bar and take in the gorgeous scenery beyond. In addition, it is here you can attend the fascinating presentations and talks by the expert naturalist guides to really give you background information and fully appreciate this unique corner of the world.
If you want some peace and quiet, head up to the Observatory. From here, you have even more serene views and can pick out one of the books in the library dedicated to the Galapagos’ history and biodiversity. Meanwhile, when wanting to get out in the open, the Vista is where you can recharge your batteries with a dip in the soothing hot tub, lounge in the sun and sip a cocktail.
Unfortunately, due to the nature of expedition cruises aboard Celebrity Flora, there is no access for passengers with limited mobility. However, there are zodiacs to whisk you back and forth from the excursions on land and two pools to relax in as you take in the views from the deck. There is also unlimited Wi-Fi, with spa treatments available too.
