Great experience! ROA was ready when we got there and it was a small group. Just us and another small family. Loved the monkeys jumping on and around us. It was great to see the sloths as even though you can't hold them anymore because of a law. But you can see them up close. We also spent a couple of hours at a private beach. Our tour guide Norma was great! Would recomend ROA and this adventure to anyone visiting Roatan

The tour made everything very safe, easy and comfortable. Dave was a great tour guide. The beach was the absolute highlight. It was stunning, clean, relaxing and fun. We already knew we would book with this team again before the trip was over. We are already planning on booking future excursions with this company. I would recommend to friends and family without hesitation.

Really great time. We exited ship, walked out of port and found Roatan Ocean Adventures easily. We were assigned a private driver, Norma. She was able to share some Honduras history while otw to the sanctuary. Great time with the sloths, monkeys and parrots. We then went to a private beach. Was able to be there as long as we wanted too. Norma offered to drive us to local markets or restaurants. Overall, this was a great experience for a fraction of cruise line prices.

Joe was a perfect driver. Some drivers in the area were crazy, but we felt very safe with Joe. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and super patient. The Animal Sanctuary was SO FUN! And the tour guides were fun and knowledgeable. Everything was very clean. I highly recommend this!

The close up experience with the animals was amazing! And the beach resort area on French Key was beautiful and relaxing. We could have stayed all day!

Norma took great care of me from start to finish—picking me up at the ship, taking me to the beach, and making sure I got back safely. I was a bit disappointed that you can no longer hold the sloths at the sanctuary due to regulations, but it was still really neat to get up close to them. Spending time with the monkeys and macaws was especially fun. The tour guides at the sanctuary were very professional and polite, which made the experience even better. I was also the first one on the beach, which was a nice bonus. The beach was clean, and the staff there were friendly and courteous.

Such a fun experience! Interacting with spider monkeys and sloths, was so cool. I never expected to be holding the softest little hands of a spider monkey!

Definitely recommend! Everything was so fun! They take you on a little boat ride to Bradys Cay for a beach day after. The beach is beautiful.

My family and I had an amazing time! We loved seeing the sloths, monkeys, and birds. You can't hold the sloths, however you can get close for pictures. We then traveled to the most relaxing, beautiful beach where we were given plenty of time to soak up the sun. Our guide was extremely informative, providing background on Roatan. I would absolutely recommend this excursion.
