First Horseback Riding Experience

5.00This tour with the horseback riding was always a dream and to have the opportunity was very satisfying.. Some of the reviews indicated that there was no experience riding and I was like great- because we never rode a horse before. Our guide Phil was amazing- after sorting out the logistics at the Port- the tour began and Phil was soo knowledgeable about ha home town and we enjoyed the trips to the chocolate and rum factories. The horses seemed very back riding was the highlight- our guide Marvin made the experience soo enjoyable- and the horses seemed very friendly and were very aware of their tasks. It made the experience soo enjoyable and memorable - that we are still talking about the trip
Amazing

5.00Excellent experience. The booking process was simple and the communication between Roatan Tucan Adventours was easy. They provided step-by-step instructions on how to meet our tour guide and start our excursion. Our private driver named Garland was exceptional. He was full of useful information, courteous patient and spent the whole day with us. Our first stop was the horse ride on the beach. It was beautiful and went through a local access to a beach. The beach was different than the other tourist beaches as it went by several residential houses and helped us get a better feel for the island. The staff made sure that we were seated well on our horses and the guide, Michael, made sure that we were comfortable and knew everything we needed to know to have a safe and enjoyable time. Next, Garland took us to the chocolate factory for local made chocolate, which was delicious then Garland recommended a local shop where we could look at crafts specifically made on the island. The last planned stop on our trip was the rum makers factory. It said on top of a beautiful mountain provided samples of rum and rum cakes and then allowed us to have a drink on the back porch overlooking the scenic Bay. While the planned excursion was over, Garland , let us know that he was at our disposal for anything else we wanted to do. Last, he recommended a local place called mama’s kitchen where we had f fried lobster, fried fish, and fried shrimp served with plantains, rice and beans, and a small salad. The food was amazing, and I would highly recommend it to anybody else. All in all, it was the best excursion I’ve ever been on. The highlight of the trip had to be our driver, Garland. He was patient kind, knowledgeable, and willing to help in anyway at no time did we feel unsafe or lost he was right there to help. I hope I do come back to this island, and I will for sure book with the company and do my very best to get Garland again.
Best Time in Roatan- Who Knew!! Thank you Nathan!!

5.00Our party of 4 had an amazing, fun-filled excursion in Roatan, Honduras, thanks to our incredible guide, Nathan! He wasn't just a tour guide; he was the heart and soul of our island adventure, ensuring we had the best time from the moment he picked us up until we reluctantly said goodbye. 🌴 Nathan curated the perfect day for our group of four, effortlessly blending fun and flexibility. He was flexible throughout the day when we wanted to stop for a quick snack and coffee break, kept us on schedule, the horseback riding on the beach was so much fun, sipping delicious samples at the rum tour, and indulging our sweet tooth at the chocolate factory. 🍫🐎 We soaked up all the local knowledge he shared, grabbing souvenirs and making memories at every stop. Honestly, I didn't expect to like Roatan as much as I did, but Nathan's expertise and easygoing charm made the island a stop we cannot wait to visit again. He spoke fluent English and Spanish, making communication a breeze and the entire experience seamless. We cannot recommend him enough! If you want an unforgettable, effortlessly cool Roatan experience, Nate's your guy. Muchas Gracias por todo, Nate! We’re already planning our return trip! P.S. Kapo & Ryan are officially on repeat in my playlist. Donde??😉🎶 Nitsia! :)
Awesome time in Roatan Honduras!

5.00I was unsure about booking via Viator instead of cruise line excursion, but I am so glad we did. Our tour guide Diana was so wonderful! She made our experience so much better. She is warm and welcoming, genuine, personable and informative. She wanted to make our experience the best possible and made lots of suggestions along the way. I highly recommend any tour with Diana!!

5.00Our tour guide was amazing! The whole experience felt very intimate but informative as the tour guide knew all the hidden gems around the island. I would highly recommend them as they accommodate our every need, especially on our birthday.
Perfect tour for relaxing and experiencing the island!

5.00Brief Summary: -I recommend! -Tour Guide was welcoming and professional -Brief walk from ship to meet tour guide -Chill/Laid back tour, not rushed -Private, clean air-conditioned vehicle -Will take you where you want to go on the West Side of Roatan -Horses were sweet and gentle -Horse ride is relaxing (about 45 mins) -Time for photos, shopping & eating -Tour is not "too much" or "too little"- perfect for those who want a chill experience -Our Tour Guide Alfredo was awesome 👍 -Would purchase tour again ☀️ Detailed Summary: I booked this private tour as an excursion during my stop in Roatán while on a Carnival Cruise (July 2025). There was a brief walk from the ship to meet up with our tour guide who was waiting for us. We had our own vehicle which was clean, spacious, and air-conditioned, making the tour comfortable and relaxing—we could explore at our own pace without feeling rushed. Our driver/guide, Alfredo, was warm, welcoming, and always professional. He didn’t hesitate to let us know he was willing to take us to areas and places of our interest, making the tour feel completely tailored to us. A nice surprise was when I mentioned wanting good espresso—he took us to Bean Crazy, a charming coffee shop with an amazing brew and a calm, relaxing atmosphere. Bean Crazy serves lunch as well (the Pollo Chuco was delicious!🤌)We enjoyed taking a break there and soaking in the local vibe. We visited the Roatán Chocolate Factory and the Roatán Rum Factory, where we learned about the chocolate-making process, sampled delicious treats, tasted flavorful rum varieties, and there were nice views for pictures. The horseback ride was a nice, relaxing way to see the island at a slower pace. The ride was about 45 minutes. We briefly strolled through a residential area and then reached the beach, where we walked along the shoreline. The horses were sweet and gentle. We had plenty of time for shopping, pictures, and taking in the scenery. If you’re visiting Roatán and want a personalized, stress-free experience that lets you see the island’s best spots while learning from a local this is the tour to do that. Alfredo...if you see this- thank you for your hospitality! Many blessings to you☀️
