Overview
The first ship purpose-built for the Galápagos
Celebrity Flora is the first ship purpose-built for the Galapagos — a design-forward, all-suite expedition vessel carrying just a hundred guests across fifty outward-facing suites, most with the signature Infinite Veranda that opens the cabin to the sea at the touch of a button. Around eleven National-Park-certified naturalists guide the islands, with a maximum of sixteen guests per guide, and a dedicated marina deck launches pangas, kayaks and snorkellers straight off the ship. Two restaurants plus open-air Under the Stars deck dining and deck glamping, a small spa and gym, and a Penthouse running up to one thousand two hundred and eighty-eight square feet that spans the ship's width round out a fully all-inclusive way to voyage at sea. The Galapagos lie around six hundred miles off mainland Ecuador and were the first place inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage site; on seven-night itineraries the ship reaches giant-tortoise islands, marine-iguana shores and seabird colonies, with snorkelling among sea lions straight from the marina. Sailing via Baltra, reached from Quito or Guayaquil, with meals, drinks, excursions, gear and guides included, it is made for couples and active travellers who want a design-forward, all-inclusive Galapagos voyage.

Galapagos
Silver Origin
Silver Origin is Silversea's first ship built specifically for the Galápagos — an ultra-luxury, all-suite expedition vessel carrying just 100 guests across 51 cabins, and the only ship in the islands with butler service in every suite. Italian-designed interiors bring Horizon Balconies and ocean-view whirlpool baths; the ship runs the highest crew- and guide-to-guest ratios in the fleet with eight Zodiacs, and an interactive 'Base Camp' with a curved LED wall briefs each day's expedition. Two 7-day itineraries, east and west — the only back-to-back option in the islands — are fully all-inclusive, down to wines, spirits and expedition gear.
Galapagos
Pikaia Lodge
Pikaia Lodge is the most luxurious land lodge in the Galápagos — a carbon-neutral, contemporary lodge built atop two craters in a private giant-tortoise reserve in the Santa Cruz highlands, with ocean views on three sides. Fourteen keys run 61-square-metre rooms and 74-square-metre suites, one with a private plunge pool, behind floor-to-ceiling glass. A crater-rim infinity pool, the Sumaq spa and the Evolution Restaurant with a walk-in wine cellar anchor the lodge; full-board exploration programmes include land and yacht excursions aboard its own 100-foot M/Y Pikaia I — a land-based alternative to a cruise.
Galapagos
Finch Bay Galapagos Hotel
Finch Bay is the only beachfront hotel in the Galápagos — a National Geographic Unique Lodge on Santa Cruz, steps from Playa Los Alemanes across the bay from Puerto Ayora. Thirty-three neutral-palette rooms and suites include ocean-view Finch Bay Suites with hammock balconies and contemporary Evolution Suites. A beachside pool, a spa and an open-air restaurant sit by the sand, board runs flexibly from B&B to full-board, and the private Sea Lion Yacht handles day excursions. Carbon-neutral, it completes the Metropolitan Touring trio with Mashpi and Casa Gangotena.
