Rothko1 Posted August 22, 2022 #2 Share Posted August 22, 2022 You are talking about the two best cruise ships in the Galapagos, I am thinking. It's like picking between a BMW and a Mercedes. Both really nice cars. It might depend on which line, if either, you've had previous experience with. I've been on the Silver Origin, but not the Flora, so I cannot do a direct comparison. I think you could compare the generalities of the two cruise lines perhaps. It might also boil down to issues like cost, itinerary, etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sippican Posted November 19, 2022 #3 Share Posted November 19, 2022 What are you proirities? You have chosen two top of the line ships (owned by the same company). You will be spending a great deal of time off-ship as the Galapagos are the real reason for the trip. My friends did sail Flora and raved about it. You will be doing basically the same excursion sites and experiences, so the differences will be ship amenities and cost. Do a ton of homework by reading reviews, etc. It is doubtful on here that you will find someone who has sailed on both, but you never know. We sailed Xpedition twice with only 48 aboard for a much lower price and loved every minute. Although the ship is older, it is lovely with a great crew.

as3369 Posted December 2, 2022 #4 Share Posted December 2, 2022 We were on the Flora last year and it was an AMAZING JOURNEY! I can highly recommend the Flora but haven't sailed your other option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Istew4u2 Posted December 5, 2022 #5 Share Posted December 5, 2022 I’m just back from the best cruise of my life on The Flora. I cannot rave enough about the accommodations and the crew. Totally amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
