Joel was the best! He goes out of his way to give you a great experience! We had the best time! Definitely take this tour!

Our driver, Michael is a native Roatan and he was able to take us to the locations that catered to much smaller groups. He listened to what we were interested in doing along with taking us to a restaurant that was simply unbelievable with access to beautiful water, clean bathrooms, and clean facilities all the best food around

We spent the day with tour guide Tracy and he rocked it! Very friendly, super accommodating and knowledgeable about the island he loves. I would highly recommend asking for Tracy.

We had an amazing day in Roatán thanks to our guide, Dolphus Stanley, a Roatán native who loved to talk and tell stories just like us Cajuns from Louisiana. We connected immediately over music, family, hurricanes, island life, and local culture. He taught us so much about the island’s history, schools, tourism, and traditions, which made the experience feel authentic and personal instead of just another tour.
He also gave us great practical advice throughout the day, including stopping early for family pictures at the big Roatán sign before the crowds arrived and helping us get perfect beach chairs at the Thirsty Turtle on Bananarama Beach. We felt safe, relaxed, and well taken care of the entire time, and the conversations and stories made this one of our favorite cruise excursions ever.

Our tour guide, Orey, was attentive to our needs, provided our family with many fun and varied activities throughout our tour of Roatan, and he did so without being pushy about certain destinations ...he gave us options and let us pick our choices. We had a great time. Roatan Adventure Tours has an exceptional employee! Based upon our experience, I will be recommending Viator.

Perfect way to explore Roatan. Our driver was very friendly. We just told him all the places we wanted to see and he got us there. When we wanted to spend extra time somewhere he was very flexible with that too. Would definitely book this again if ever in Roatan again.
Barbara_H, May 2026
The different names of this company is very confusing! After walking a great distance from the berth Norwegian escape was in, we had to contend with all the other private companies and their passengers with only a sidewalk between us and all the traffic. Many of the companies had similar names
Clive_J, May 2026
Our driver and guide Jordan, great guy very friendly and helpful it was a pleasure spending the day with him
Corrin_G, May 2026
My family had the best time today. Very informative and patient tour guide. Will def book again when we return to Honduras.
Laura_R, May 2026
My husband and i traveled with another couple. This excursion is completely customizable. We felt safe the entire time. Garfield was our guide and he was the best. We wanted to see more of the island than what we had seen on cruise company excursions. Highly recommend and will repeat when we come back
Frank_A, Apr 2026
What a great time! Orie was amazing and very knowledgeable about the island. The personalization of the tour was perfect and exactly what we were looking for. We were able to dictate what we did and for how long. There was no concern about being able to get a taxi or share a bus with a large group. I would highly recommend this tour!
Larry_L, Apr 2026
Our Best of Roatan was……..the Best!
Dauphas Stanley, our guide and host, was a wealth of knowledge! Nice, courteous and kind, he took is throughout the island, east, west, north and south!
Really enjoyed the wildlife encounters and Chocolate factory. Visited some beautiful 5 Starr resorts also.
Highly recommend and will certainly request our new friend Dauphas when we return!!!
Basil_P, Apr 2026
This tour was an excellent way to see a large part of the island and get to experience some of the key highlights. We had a great driver/guide and he took us to some really nice attractions. We enjoyed the visit to AJs sloth and monkey zoo, the boat ride through the mangroves, the stop at the Mayak chocolate factory as well as the Roaton Rum Company.
Adriene_M, Apr 2026
Our personalized tour of Roatan was so much more than we expected! We opted to bypass all of the "traditional" tourist spots. We simply wanted to get a feel of the true Roatan island culture and our tour guide, Michael, did NOT disappoint! We ventured our way throughout the island, from the ritzy resorts to the small streets and villages where the everyday Hondurans lived. It was magnificent! Michael did an absolutely exceptional job of sharing how every day Hondurans lived. We were pleasantly surprised to find that Roatan is a very safe and community minded island. Michael made sure to take us to the top photo op spots on the island and gave us excellent suggestions regarding best places to get seafood! Absorbing the Honduran culture with Michael was, by far, a much more memorable experience than we could have if we had opted for the traditional zip lining, snorkeling, etc. This is the PERFECT excursion for anyone who wants to tailor their time their way!

Driver is very accommodating and knowledgeable. Did what we wanted on our own terms. Shout out to Joel!!
John_C, Apr 2026
This was an excellent tour, and. Our driver responded well to our particular desires. Highly recommended.
Leny_G, Apr 2026
Our tour guide was Mr. Dolphus Stanley. He was patient and professional. He took us to a great souvenir shop and didn’t rush us, plus we had the opportunity to hear the history of Roatan, see many popular spots and many hidden treasures. Thank you Mr. Stanley.
Thomas_B, Apr 2026
My wife and I had a wonderful time. Our driver, his name wasJordan,was terrific. He grew up on the island and was very down to earth, courteous and knowledgeable. He took us to the iguana park, the butterfly garden and a botanical garden. This tour company is terrific. We got a very personal tour of the island. It was worth every penny. Thanks Jordan.
jennifer_m, Apr 2026
We packed in so much! We booked this private tour instead of going through the cruise ship and it was an amazing experience. We did a mangrove tour and stopped to swim with tarpon and turtles. We also were able to see the sloths and monkeys, do a chocolate tour and made a beach stop. Orie was our tour guide and he was the best! He knows everyone in the island to the point where you feel like a VIP. If you want to really experience Roatan and learn about the culture and hit all the best stuff on your own time, book this tour!
Sebastian_M, Apr 2026
Tracy was an amazing guide — knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure we hit every spot on time. 10/10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Alberto_F, Apr 2026
A great opportunity to learn about Honduran culture and the island of Roatán, including its best places and activities. We had a lot of fun as a family.
Kathy_M, Apr 2026
We had an amazing day in Roatan with our Viator excursion—hands down our favorite stop on our Western Caribbean cruise!
Finding our guide through the busy port was a bit overwhelming at first, but once we met Jordan, everything was perfect. He was friendly, funny, professional, and made us feel completely safe and taken care of all day.
He took us to a scenic viewpoint for photos, then on a customized adventure we had requested—a boat ride through the mangroves and a visit to a monkey and sloth park. The drive was about 45 minutes, but absolutely worth it. The mangrove tour was peaceful and unique, and our boat guide, Edward, was fantastic.
We also stopped for a delicious lunch at a charming waterfront restaurant. The highlight was AJ’s Sloth and Monkey Park—despite being closed, they opened just for us, giving us a private, unforgettable experience with sloths, monkeys, parrots, and more!
This was truly a memorable day. Highly recommend this excursion—and especially Jordan as your guide!
Debra_S, Apr 2026
The four of us enjoyed our driver, Dolphus, for about five hours. He was waiting for us outside the gates earlier than expected, so we got to enjoy more time seeing the island. Dolphus was very friendly and informative as we passed various sites. We stopped to see the monkeys and sloths, although the admission price was not worth it. We also visited the chocolate factory and bought some yummy 70% sugar free bars, one with almonds. Another stop was at the rum store, where we sampled a few varieties. Bottles of rum and rum cakes were overpriced, but still a nice stop to see the view and enjoy a cold drink. We also liked another hilltop view where some local merchants eagerly peddled their wares. Overall, the day was pleasant, especially with a private driver and without the hassle of traveling with a group. The weather was perfect, too!
Spencer_S, Apr 2026
Garfield was amazing!!! Excellent tour guide that took us everywhere. He had great insights about the island and was very pleasant. Thanks!!
Anshul_P, Mar 2026
This DIY customizable tour is great for those who want to have full discretion on how they want to spend their time in Roatan. Our guide gave us information as we drove around and provided a nice experience. We mentioned what we wanted to do and our guide took us to all the spots as requested. The car provided had working AC.
Danae_B, Mar 2026
This was our first time booking outside of the cruise excursions and we were so impressed! Our driver for the day was JJ we couldn't have asked for a better fit for our sassy group! JJ took us to a newer animal sanctuary, and this was one of our favorite spots. Fed the monkeys, saw their rescued animals, almost store a baby deer and the SLOTHS!!! The baby sloth was active and so freaking precious! We went to a couple look out spots, got some beautiful views of the island. JJ recommended a spot for lunch that was over the incredibly blue water. Food was goooooood. Incredible views, with the gentle breeze from the ocean. We also went to the coffee and chocolate shop, and the chocolate there was out of this world!!! Seriously, can not wait to go back. We made it back to the ship with plenty of time to spare. If I could request JJ again when we come back I'll try to make it happen! He was so fun.
Sheyla_V, Mar 2026
We book this tour for our day in Roatan while on Carnival ship stop; Our tour guide was Jordan (JJ), We had nothing planned and just asked him to take us to his favorite most see and Im glad we let him take the wheel, our day was amazing, he was funny and so knowledgeable of the island and it's history; prices were absolutely reasonable and very affordable, easy instructions to find them right atthe exit of the port area. We definitely recommended them and would use them again when we return to Roatan.
Danielle_B, Mar 2026
A fantastic private tour at a very reasonable price, our guide Joel was fantastic. Very detailed instructions of how to find the guide once we arrived at the cruise terminal and very responsive company when we sent messages before our tour.
Joel was fantastic, very knowledgeable about the island and its history and funny too cracking jokes making us all laugh. We told him the type of things we would like to see and he made recommendations of the best places and how to maximise our time on the island. He was a safe driver and told us stories while we drove to each attraction. He knew which places would be busy so took us to the quieter places to avoid the big crowds and got us there before the big coach loads arrived.
I would highly recommend this private tour and ask for Joel you will not be disappointed.
Virginia_T, Mar 2026
Our guide was Jordan. He was excellent in every way. He was a fountain of knowledge about the island and its history. He took our suggestions and constructed it into a wonderful day. We would definitely recommend him to anyone else looking for an excellent personalized tour of Roatan.
