At 17 knots, you’ll sail Celebrity’s newest ship into the fabled waters of the Galapagos. As the perfect complement to the exotic, we’ve filled Celebrity Xpedition with touches of the familiar. The first being the sense of intimacy that can be achieved only aboard a ship that’s smaller than most others in our fleet by the length of two tennis courts, and that sails with a mere 100 guests.

Relax with room service. Slip into complimentary stateroom extras like Plush Frette™ bathrobes. And revel in a host of other amenities, like our Hot Tub and Sauna, Salon and Fitness Room, and our lounge featuring nightly lectures by naturalists or live music.

Add to that, this: the price of your Celebrity Xpeditions™ Galapagos package includes almost everything on board, from afternoon tea to tips for the staff from house wines and most beverages to our signature dishes (roast leg of Lamb or Banana Flambe, anyone?). Not to mention the comfort of knowing that while the Galapagos will touch you in unimaginable ways, you’ll sail this itinerary on a ship specifically designed to leave them untouched.

The ship features 47 comfortable staterooms and suites, all of them offering exterior windows. All rooms have standard Celebrity Cruises amenities, including televisions, telephones, complimentary use of bathrobes, complimentary room service, and hair dryers.  Balcony cabins range from 230 to 460 sq. ft. Ocean view cabins from 145 to 160 sq. ft.

Celebrity Xpeditions offers 7-Night cruises from Baltra visiting North Seymour, San Cristobal, Punta Suarez, Cormorant Point, Baroness Outlook, Las Bachas, Bartolome, Elizabeth Bay, Punta Espinoza, Puerto Eqas, Dragon Hill & Puerto Ayora. There are also 10-Night packages available on a cruisetour, that give you 2 nights in Quito, Ecuador before the cruise & 1 day at the end of the cruise.

TIP:  Suites sell our about a year in advance, so book early! Keep in mind that your deposit is refundable, and should the price go down, your rate will be adjusted, so there is no down side to booking early, only the benefit of getting the cabin and location that you want. 

There are still good rates available for ocean view cabins on May 17-24th; June 28-Jul 5th 2009 & Jan 17, 2010. Best priced balcony cabins are currently Jan 31 & February 28, 2010
