The Xpedition voyage through the Galapagos was the final leg of a 2 year (cruising) adventure that allowed me to explore coastal South America and follow in Darwin's footsteps.
I booked the Celebrity Xpedition two years in advance (which tends to be a requirement of this trip — space is limited and they are regularily sold out). I chose April 11 because the new moon promised (and delivered) excellent star gazing.
I traveled with my dear friend Helen, who had never cruised before, nor had she ever crossed the equator or snorkeled — so this trip was especially remarkable for her.
The cabin was on the small end, but well designed with a window. There were two single beds, a sofa, table and TV. We were perfectly comfortable.
