5.00We had an amazing time on the snorkel and monkey excursion with ROA. We followed the directions out of the port and met Herbert - the owner. We had a lovely conversation with him and Norma until the other guest arrived. Brandon was our driver and did a great job of telling us about island history and culture. We loved the monkey hangout and appreciated our guide, Isaac who made it fun. The snorkeling was exceptional!! Our captain was Will and Norman was our snorkel guide. We’ve snorkeled in other places in the Caribbean and were disappointed in the coral and lack of fish, but this was a 180 - tons of love coral, a huge wall of coral and thousands of fish. The boat ride was sort and the majority of our time was spent in the water. Norman showed us several sea creatures and he and Will taught us about the reef. We can’t wait to go back! Brandon drove us back and even took us by one of the only coffee roasteries on the island as well as a coffee maker. We got some one of a kind items for our family and really appreciated Brandon’s desire to share the local goods with us even though it wasn’t officially part of our tour. We loved the experience, Herbert, and how your support your staff. We’ve already recommended this tour to friend who will be traveling soon!
Great Excursion

5.00This was the first time I used Viator for an excursion during a cruise port stop. It was very easy. We found the tour operator, Roatan Ocean Adventures (ROA), right away. Our driver, Keylie, was super nice and informative. Our first stop, the Monkey/Sloth tour, was an awesome experience! A monkey climbed on us, but we were not allowed to touch the sloths. The next stop was snorkeling. We snorkeled at 2 nice locations with beautiful crystal-clear blue water. There were a lot of colorful fish and even a stingray, however, sadly, the reefs did seem to have coral bleaching. Keylie waited for us at each stop and took us back to the port. We were fortunate to have her as our driver since she added pleasure to our experience.

5.00Our driver, Norma, provided great service, giving us lots of info about the local area. Had a lot of fun at the monkey and sloth sanctuary where Isaac was our guide, then made it to snorkeling where my partner and I had a blast. Saw so many fish and beautiful reefs, though our swim was cut short by turbulent weather. 10/10 would recommend

5.00Hands down one of the best excursions we have ever booked! Our driver Anne was beyond amazing and gave us a unique insight into the island! The sloths and monkeys were the highlight of our trip and my husband and I were the only 2 on our tour! We saw so much life while snorkeling and the reef was breathtaking! There were so many sweet cats and a dog to sit and visit with while we were waiting on another couple to join us for our snorkeling adventure. Then Anne took us to a local restaurant for lunch before we had to head back. Everyone we encountered has beyond friendly and caring. You did't just feel like a tourist being pushed along. We will always book with them in the future whenever we are back in Roatan!

5.00It was the best tour we had on our trip. Our driver was so knowledgeable about the country and places that we traveled past on our way to see the monkeys, parrots and sloths. Everything was timely and so much fun. Seeing a parrot sitting on my husbands head was priceless. The snorkeling was superb. We have snorkeled several times in different locations. This was even better than Maui. We drifted with the current which made it even better than trying to swim to see all the sea life including a big turtle. The guides were also so helpful with our 5 year old grandson. I would recommend this tour to anyone. Thanks to the wonderful friendly people who guide this tour.

5.00We had a lot of fun! Jenny was our private driver for the morning. She took us to the sloth/monkey sanctuary where we took a tour with a group. The guides were very knowledgable and getting up close with the animals was fun. The snorkeling was also fun and well organized. The only drawback was I tried to reach out to the company to confirm the start time of the tour and didn't hear back but we were able to find the guide with the sign pretty easily.
Awesome day in Rotan
