Creator's Key Takeaways

Celebrity Flora is by far one of their best ships. Obviously Silver Sea has exactly similar ship because it was built and then Silver sold it to them.

The entire experience was luxurious in a whole another way. It felt much more from an attitudinally as far as the interaction with the other guests, the interaction with the staff.

It's an active luxury experience. It's not a straight up adventure experience.

The fish was some of the best fish I've ever had in my life. The lobster. Oh my gosh, the lobster.

Creator's Tips & Advice

If you are a nervous traveler, book the Celebrity land package to handle flights and transit paperwork.
Arrive in the Galapagos at least a day early to avoid flight delays and the 6 PM landing restriction.
If you want to save money and are comfortable managing logistics, book your own land transfers and hotels in Puerto Ayora.
