My husband and I booked this for a day our cruise ship was in port in Roatan. Darby was our guide and she was absolutely amazing! Our first stop was at AJ's where we interacted with guinea pigs, sloths, parrots, and monkeys. Everyone there was great! We then went to a newly opened coffee shop on the top of a hill that had an incredible view. We stopped by a grocery store where Darby explained how various herbs are used as natural remedies in place of medications. She also told us about some of the produce and other products that are unique to Roatan. We went to a chocolate factory that was extremely busy and Darby told the employees that she could start the presentation for them. Eventually one of the workers took over, but Darby was extremely confident in her knowledge and had no problem filling in and telling us (and others that were there) about the cacao beans. It was a rainy day, so we skipped the beach. During the drive, Darby was continuously pointing out different types of trees and sharing stories.
You could not ask for a friendlier guide and it was obvious that everyone knows and loves Darby! Everywhere we went, people were so excited to see her and her love for her community was very evident. I would highly recommend booking this tour!

Darby was just a fantastic tour guide we expected to just see sloths and monkeys and she showed us so much more very personable and funny, my mom loved the fresh coconuts

Juan Carlos was absolutely outstanding! We covered probably 70% or more of entire island of Roatan. Even backroad out of the way locations. Could not have been more thorough!

Perfect Roatan day! Our guide, Nick, was absolutely incredible. He was respectful, friendly, and had answers to all our questions about everything. My wife and I were dripping around in a comfortable, air conditioned van. It was just the two of us; we were not with a group. The sloths and monkeys were a one of a kind experience. We got to get up close and personal with them (and they with us). The rum and chocolate tasting came next. It was super fast and good and we were on our way to the beach. Nick recommended an amazing beachside restaurant for lunch. We had a delicious meal of red snapper, plantains, coconut shrimp, and chips and guacamole. It was a bit more than the $20 the excursion site stated, but totally worth it! We had as much time on the beach as we wanted; Nick was totally flexible in allowing us to return to our ship whenever we were ready. Highly recommend.

A good guide and driver was amazing
We have seen the hole island.
Nice beaches and entertainment.
The orginastion took good care of the animals and especially the slothes. We liked the personal guidens, and the freedom to choose our own time frame.

Christian met us with a huge smile just outside the port, he was easy to find once we got through the port gates.
He was so friendly and wanted to make sure we had the best day exploring all of the best bits of this great island. He checked that we were happy with everything throughout the day. He gave us a few different options to tailor our trip to exactly what we wanted. The sloth sanctuary was great, you get up close to guinea pigs, sloths, parrots and monkeys going in to all of the enclosures, great for adults and kids alike.
The chocolate factory, coffee and rum stops were fun and we got some great souvenirs to bring home.
Christian was a delight and we feel we have made a new friend, I promise, you won’t find a better host. Nothing was too much trouble and his knowledge of the island was great. The mini van was very luxurious and modern, a very nice surprise. Fab to be our own little group (4) rather than the big cruise organised groups. It’s really nice to support the locals too of course.

We had a great time with Darby! We were able to see so much of the island. She told us where to get souvenirs and how to make sure we got the best deal, listen when she tells you she can find it cheaper! She even bought me a couple of bottles of clear vanilla from the grocery store. Very down to earth and friendly. This is your adventure, they just make sure you have fun! My daughter and I really enjoyed the zipline! We skipped the beach because of weather but saw so many other things it didn’t even matter!

Tour guide (Dennis) was waiting just outside the cruise gate ready to go. This tour is perfect for a day trip off the ship, and you get to see all highlights of the island. The locals are all super nice, and the food at Lorettas was fresh and delicious. Highly recommend this tour!

Our driver-tour guide Carlos, was great. Brought everywhere and more. Was there to help us with any questions and needs. The Sloths and monkeys were loads of unexpected fun. The beach was great and the location was perfect.

Our guide Darbie was awesome. She was knowledgeable and helped us with the kids (we had 4 under 10) in our party. If you are looking to get a cultural experience, this is it!

Our driver Christian is very friendly and acomodates to all of our needs. Definitely I will recommend tnis company.

Once we got out the port, they were waiting right outside for us. They called the car and we were picked up in our private vehicle within minutes. They took us to the animal sanctuary, chocolate factory, the market and the beach. We were able to tell them where we wanted to go and they helped us everywhere we went. You can tell our local guides are able to get into places regularl people can’t. I’m very happy with our tour with our guides, they made us a homemade cake and had a cooler with drinks and fruit. It was a great experience and would recommend to anyone.

We had an amazing experience in Roatan thanks to Darby and Gomez (driver), who made us feel completely at home. Their tour company, Nahomy Tours, is a legit, family-owned business named after Darby’s daughter, and you can really feel the heart they put into everything.
They reached out to me before our cruise to confirm the details and make sure we felt taken care of—such a thoughtful touch that made us feel at ease right from the start. During the tour, they were incredibly accommodating, even stopping so we could try local fruit and pick up mango-flavored Gatorade—a flavor not available in the U.S.! Darby even brought one for us ahead of time and made another stop when she saw how much our kids liked it.
The tour was fully tailored to what we wanted: a visit to the animal sanctuary to see the sloths and monkeys, followed by some relaxing family time at the beach. Darby also kept a close eye on the time and made sure we got back to the ship with no stress at all.
If you’re looking for a warm, trustworthy, and personalized experience in Roatan, Nahomy Tours is absolutely the way to go!

Nahomy Roatan Tours is definitely a must! My husband and I were traveling with another couple on a cruise with Roatan being one of the stops. It was by far the best during our entire trip. Our guide, Skenzor, took great care of us. He drove us to all the popular spots and educated us all on the island culture. Such a great guy!! We felt completely safe having him with us. We ran into Christian (the owner) and his wife while at the beach. Both made the effort to come over and talk with us, even sharing pictures of their family. Great people! I can't say enough nice things about all the people that made our day amazing. We will definitely be back and book again with Nahomy. Absolutely no regrets! Thank you for helping us make great memories.

Fabulous excursion. Daphne picked us up just outside the cruise port. Shared lots of info about her home island on the drive. Loved the monkeys and sloths. Side trip to a local grocery store where she showed us around. Fun unexpected side trip. Chocolate factory was great. Finished off a lt a beach where we ate (food not included with the trip) and swam. Highly recommend.

THIS IS THE ONE! Look no further for the best deal and the best excursion in Roatan! We LOVED our visit to this amazing island. I didn't realize that I booked a private tour because the price was so insignificant. I really thought I'd be with a group but it was just me and my wife and our excellent tour guide Cristhian. He will treat you like family. He lives his Christian faith and values. He greeted us promptly and had a very clean van to drive us around the island. He pointed out many interesting things about the island and its culture. The monkeys and sloths were very fun and worth going to see. Then we went to the chocolate factory. Be prepared to buy some delicious chocolate that you can take home to family as souvenirs!
We skipped the rum factory but I'm sure that it would have been nice for those who like rum.
We could have done the zip line if we had chosen to do that because we drove right by it. It's really up to you what you do during this private tour.
He took us to the West Bay Beach where we had a delicious lunch and went swimming in the calm waters. The sand is white and like powder. The barrier reef protects the bay from waves so it's like a swimming pool. We could have come back to the ship earlier but we were having too much fun. I think we spent 6 hours on this excursion. For the little amount you pay, you really should tip big. They deserve it!

We started our day with our private tour guide, Christian! He was so kind and friendly and knew everything there is to know about Belize. The car was big and spacious with AC. We then went to the sloth, monkey, parrot sanctuary and got to play with and hold all the animals! It was an incredible experience as sloths are my fav animal ever! Then we went to a chocolate making factory and you can buy local chocolate. Then the rum cake factory was awesome too. It tasted AMAZING and the view from the rum cake factory is pretty incredible. Then we stopped by beautiful family friendly beach area. Christian our guide, was helpful and kind throughout the whole process and gave tons of recommendations and suggestions. Highly recommend

This was the second time we called Cristian with Nahomy Roaton Tours and Transportation to tour us around! He’s fabulous, friendly, great English and filled with lots of knowledge of the area! We had a lovely time visiting the sloths and monkeys, great photo opportunities, we got to hold a sloth and had monkeys jumping in our shoulders, it was fun! Then Cristian took us to a great spot by the beach to swim and have a few cold drinks. The previous tour he showed us all around the town, some shops, cool stores and a beautiful beach area! He’s a fabulous tour guide!

Intermittent air conditioning in the car!
Distillery a little disappointing... we don't see anything of the process. Only rum for sale...

There were two of us on the road with our guide Nick. Nick gave us a wonderful day with his cheerful, open-minded nature, provided a lot of information and responded to our wishes.
The island is beautiful and very, very clean.
We were able to pet sloths and monkeys up close, a short stop at chocolate and rum factories was there and the stay at the beautiful (!!!) West Bay Beach.
Loungers and umbrellas would have been available at the on-site restaurant for $15 p.p., but you could also sit at the table and enjoy the beach views during a reasonably priced meal.
I would definitely recommend the trip with Nick from Nahomy Tours!

Very basic bus. The guide only reported on local shopping - which I am not interested in as a tourist. No info about the country and people, such as at TUI.
The chocolate factory was a joke and only designed for expensive sales, as was the rumcake factory... a waste of time. A stop at a gift shop was also unnecessary.
The little zoo with the sloth and monkeys was ok.
