About Celebrity Flora
Celebrity Flora, delivered in 2019, is a small expedition ship built for the Galápagos Islands, carrying about 100 guests in all-suite accommodation. It uses dynamic positioning to hold its place without dropping anchor, protecting the fragile seabed. Naturalist guides lead daily excursions by Zodiac, on foot and in the water, and fares include meals, drinks and excursions. Flora also offers Galápagos glamping, the chance to sleep on deck under the stars. It’s a very different experience from Celebrity’s big ships.
Best for: Nature lovers and active travelers who want an all-inclusive Galápagos expedition.
