We decided to do Celebrity's 13-day package. It starts with two nights in Quito, moves to seven nights on the Xpedition, then continues with one night in Lima, three nights in Cusco, and a last night in Lima. We wanted to make the trip as worry-free as possible -- and that's exactly what we got.
We are in our late 60s and this was our 20th cruise. The other 19 are not the same as this! Picture a ship with no elevators (although only four decks to traverse). Picture you, exploring on walks and panga rides that are truly unique. Different! Wonderful!
Our flight into Quito arrived about 6:30 on Friday night, an ideal time if you can manage it. After that, we were totally taken care of, except for dinner that night. Excellent tour guides, great hotels, outstanding meals in the hotels and included restaurants, and the seven-day Xpedition adventure of a lifetime.
Lovely cabin, nice and quiet. Couldn't ask for anything more! Being right near the exercise room and the hottub are little bonuses. The extra flight of stairs to go and return from anywhere on the ship just adds the extra little bit of exercise! Definitely recommend this cabin.
