Omg. Kenisa really knows how to present Roatan. She showed us all the beautiful picturesque spots, took us to great shopping areas, and took us to a spectacular local lunch spot. We enjoyed it so much. Now we want to return. Thank you so much.

Really glad we choose this tour company. We relied on previous reviews and they were 100%. We had Kenisa drive us all over the island- showing us the sights, beautiful homes, shopping opportunities, coffee, chocolate and rum stops. Her experience, professionalism and recommendations were wonderful. She was so selfish in accommodating our requests. Highly recommend! Thank you Kenisa- you are fantastic!

      Great last minute booking

      Koneisha_T, Sep 2026
      It was great. We were able to see the monkey, and slots. The location food experience was good. We'll most likely be back again.

      Great experience!

      Lonnieda_R, Sep 2026
      Our guide, Tyler was very knowledgeable and attentive. The monkey, sloth, Tucan experience was our favorite part. Don't do it without that.

      JOHN_A, Sep 2026
      Was a bit confusing and difficult to find my driver but other than that everything else was excellent. Customer service was good and our driver Alfredo couldn't have been better. Made us feel at home, showed us everything and was extremely accommodating.

      Icon getaway

      Judith_C, Sep 2026
      Our tour guide Danny was excellent. Very knowledgeable about his island and went out of his way to makes us feel welcome and learn as much as possible.

      Very little to offer the vacationer.

      Mark_K, Sep 2026
      The Island of Roatán in my opinion offers very little compared to other islands as viewed from a vacation experience. Personally I'm not sure why cruise ships even stop at this Island.

      Response from Host, Sep 2026

However, we would like to clarify that your review is primarily based on your personal opinion of Roatán as a destination rather than on the experience, service, or activities provided during our tour.

We always strive to provide a professional service and a quality experience. We are sorry that the destination did not meet your expectations, and we hope future travelers will have the opportunity to discover Roatán for themselves through the experiences we offer.

      An Unforgettable Day!

      Shirley_H, Aug 2026
      My husband and I had an amazing day with Ruth, our tour guide. The meeting point was easy to find, and we immediately felt comfortable on this private tour. As a permanent resident of Roatan, Ruth made sure we experienced the best of the city, from local life to beautiful resorts. She was warm, knowledgeable, and gave us a fantastic tour. We ended the day with lunch at one of her favorite spots, boasting a breathtaking view. The food was incredible, especially the plantains – perfectly seasoned, crispy, and golden brown! Ruth’s expertise made our day unforgettable. For anyone wanting a relaxed and enjoyable adventure, this tour is a must. Enjoy Roatan!

      Fun Day!!

      Camille_C, Aug 2026
      Ivan was an amazing guide. He was engaging, knowledgeable and passionate about the island. I love the personalized cultural tours as they offer a lot of knowledge without the commercialization. The pick up location was clearly communicated. It was a bit of a walk with stairs so make sure you dress appropriately. I would definitely recommend!!

      Kenisa was the Best!!! Great Tour!

      Ox tails, vanilla and rum...yummm

      Christina_L, Aug 2026
      Our driver/guide Johnny was very friendly, helpful and made suggestions of things to do before we even had a chance to ask. We had a couple of special requests and in no time, he had made it happen! Such a nice and fun time! Most memorable to me, he took us to a restaurant where I could try ox tails, something I had been wanting to try for years! Was delicious and the views were lovely too.

      Great time in Roatan

      Michael_L, Aug 2026
      We had a great time exploring the highlights of Roatan! Our tour guide, David, was incredibly knowledgeable and shared fascinating information about each stop along the way, making the experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this tour if you prefer a relaxed pace. We had plenty of time to take in the sights without ever feeling rushed, which made for a memorable and enjoyable visit.

      Ferdinand_C, Jul 2026
      Diana was the best host ever. She made my wife and I feel comfortable. Her knowledge of Roatan was uplifting. We enjoyed this experience and hope to have Diana Johnson as our host, again. Thank you.

      Awesome Tour Guide!

      Michael_G, Jul 2026
      Roatán Tucan Adventures sent Jorge (George) Lopes to pick us up as soon as we exited the port. George led us to his air-conditioned vehicle and immediately offered to stop for drinks and snacks. He also provided us with fresh mango from his own tree! We then were able to choose to add any stop that we wanted to make to the tour. Monkeys and Sloths!!! George brought us to a local restaurant with a great view and we had a wonderful, relaxed lunch with him, and a local shop for souvenirs. We all felt very comfortable with George and would look him up again if we ever go back to Honduras.

      Very good tour of the island's delights

      Trivi_M, Jul 2026
      We were a group of 4 people (3 adults, 1 teenager). Our guide was Georgie and we were VERY happy with our tour. George was early for pickup, very polite, knows a lot about the island, and has a good personality. George helped us customize the tour so we could do some good shopping, taking beautiful pics (George is a good photographer), and seeing the town. The chocolate tasting is good with a lot of options for buying. The rum tour is DELICIOUS (you try different runs and different rum cakes). We felt safe and welcome. I recommend this tour and this tour guide if you want a friendly introduction into the beauty of Roatan.

      My brother and I were...

      Teresa_D, Jul 2026
      My brother and I were staying at a very secluded resort that you can only get to by boat so we booked this tour to ensure we still got to experience the island. Our guide name was Diana and she was absolutely fabulous; so happy and energetic and ready to show us whatever we wanted to see. She planned a great day where we got to see all the main tourist parts of the island (chocolate factory, two local rum places, the West end) as well as a beautiful patio restaurant for lunch that was off the side of the road over the mountains with the sea down below. She also took us through local neighborhoods so we could get a better experience of how the locals live. If you book this tour you should definitely request Diana, you will not be disappointed!!!

      Highly recommended tour

      MiriamePierreLouis, Jul 2026
      My tour guide Cynthia was truly exceptional; she was highly attentive, noticing even the smallest details, and consistently maintained a professional demeanor throughout the entire experience. Her attentive guidance included tailored explanations of local landmarks and cultural insights that enriched the tour, making it especially memorable. I wholeheartedly recommend this tour to others and strongly suggest requesting Cynthia by name for the best experience.

      Barry_M, Jul 2026
      Johny was terrific. We wanted a customizable tour and did not have as much time as we originally scheduled due to my scheduling conflict. He was able to create a custom tour for us that we thoroughly enjoyed. I would highly recommend him.

      Amazing experience

      Staci_S, Jun 2026
      Our family has been to Roatan before and we did a tour through the cruise line. However upon coming back to the island, we wanted a more personal, up close tour. After reading tons of good reviews, we decided to book with Roatan Toucan Adventures. Jeimi was our private driver for the day and she definitely understood the assignment! We was so accommodating, very knowledgeable, and got us off the beaten path to take some amazing photos with incredible views! We loved our day with her and were so grateful that she planned such a personalized experience for us. There were 3 adults and a 15 year old. Thank you, Jeimi!!

      The best cultural experience!

      Carine_M, Jun 2026
      This excursion was everything we wanted! Tyler is very knowledgeable and made sure we go to experience what we wanted including food and local spots away from tourist places. We had the best baleadas and empanadas ever! Played with monkeys, saw sloths, took in the beauty of Roatan, ate fresh mango and sour limes, and left feeling like Tyler was part of our family. I highly recommend this experience, and ask for Tyler if you can!

      Rotan zip line monkey experience

      Mark_R, Jun 2026
      Driver was fantastic. We added to see the monkey sanctuary and zip line. Absolutely amazing experience. This should be included in the package along with the rum tour which was not my interest. The chocolate tour was basically to purchase chocolate from the local store. I would add a good meal on the beach somewhere to enhance the experience.

      Great personalised tour

      Clayton_S, Jun 2026
      Diana was the perfect guide. So friendly and had great local knowledge of the Island. She was very obliging to our needs and even recommended a nice restaurant that had the best chicken wings I have eaten in a long time. Would definitely recommend Diana as a tour guide if you would like a personalised tour.

      100 out of 10 experience

      Adriana_F, Jun 2026
      Incredible experience Samantha our driver/guide was the best, she gave us a lot of knowledge on the island and also showed us the best views. I'm recommending this company to everyone visiting roatan.

      Awesome custom excursion

      Paul_J, Jun 2026
      Alfredo was such an excellent host. He went above and beyond what we ever expected. His local knowledge was what we were hoping for. This excursion was a great experience and I would recommend it to anyone.

      As a first-time user of Viator, my family and I had a great time. Our tour guide made us feel welcome and gave us an amazing island tour. I highly recommend Viator for your future excursion.

      A must do in Roatan!

      Roxanna_O, May 2026
      This was really fun. A must do if you’re in Roatan! Be sure to ask for Amy as your tour guide! She’s the BEST!

      Terrific Way to see Roatan

      Mike_S, May 2026
      This is our second time to cruise to Roatan and this excursion booked through Viator was the best!! The first time we were in Roatan we booked an excursion to see Roatan through the cruise ship. We were very disappointed with that excursion. We were on a small bus and the excursion leaders were more interested in taking us to shops they had financial interest in rather than having a good sightseeing tour of the city. Really a waste of time. This new excursion through Viator was terrific! It was just my wife and I in a private car with our tour guide Brian Goodman. Brian was very focused on giving us ideas of things we might want to see and he wanted to know where we wanted to go and what our interests were. He is a long term resident of the Roatan and was extremely pleasant, informative, and entertaining. Meeting up with him at the cruise port was exactly as described when we booked the excursion, and he Brian returned us back to the cruise ship in ample time. Importantly we felt completely safe with this excursion. This was the highlight of the Roatan stop. I highly recommend this excursion.

      Personal tour of the islanf

      Trish_K, May 2026
      Make sure you ask the company name before trying to meet up in the mob of vendors. Also ask meeting times so you’ll have a complete plan. Cynthia was AMAZING and she took us all over the island helping us with group pictures and telling facts from the route. We added a stop at the sanctuary and had an amazing time. ($20 extra per person…bring cash and plan ahead!) it was totally worth it. Also added an extra rum tasting near the chocolate factory and it was SO MUCH better than the Roatan Rum factory stop. We had a group of 8. We had our own private tour. It was 10 out of 10 for us. ❤️

      We had an enjoyable day...

      Libbyh52, May 2026
      We had an enjoyable day with our tour guide Tyler. He spoke really good English and was very knowledgeable about the beautiful island. We visited a roadside markets that sold local crafts, a coffee shop place and chocolate factory. Tyler introduced us to a banana soda it was sweet but very refreshing. Would book this again.
