Lindblad Expeditions has taken on two former Celebrity Cruises ships, which will be based and operated in the Galapagos Islands.

The two ships will double the size of Lindblad’s fleet

The first is a 48-passenger passenger ship, previously known as Celebrity Xpedition, which features two dining venues and 24 outward-facing cabins, including 13 balcony suites.

 

The second, previously known as Celebrity Xploration, is a 16-guest, eight cabin catamaran.

Upon completion of the transaction, expected in January 2025, the ships – whose new names will be revealed later this month – will undergo a multi-million-dollar renovation before welcoming guests onboard.
