Great tour, easy to find once you are off the cruise. Our driver was Benson and he was awesome! The monkeys were crazy fun and hyper as well as the iguanas.

This was an awesome excursion. Our Tour guide Kembron was awesome he was very friendly and informative about the island, and he was on time to pick us up and drop us off. The Iguana reserve was great. The sloth and monkey encounter was the high light of the day! Finally, we went for a great snorkel and our guide was great pointing out all types of sea life! Highly recommend.

Awesome Roatan experience

This was the excursion I was most excited about and it did not disappoint. It was surreal getting to hold the sloths, such a unique experience. The monkeys were crazy but it was so funny watching them bounce around from person to person. We also went into the macaw cage and met several beautiful birds. The snorkeling was great, perfect water temperature and a nice guided swim through protected coral reef. My whole family loved it and we would definitely do it again.

Just do it! No Regrets!

Best snorkeling we’ve done anywhere. Breathtaking. The animal sanctuary was fabulous. Great guides and it was an interactive experience with iguanas, monkeys and macaws. You learn sooo much. Our driver, Harly Bennett, was the best we’ve had on all our adventures…anywhere. Native to Roatan, careful driver, very polite, super smart. Made the trip fun from pickup to return!

Most Amazing Day.

Absolutely best tour ever!!! Daniel Johnson’s Animal reserve is so well run. Clean and the make sure everyone gets great pictures. Could not be improved. Snorkeling from there was AMAZING! We were the only ones with 3 workers. A man pulled us as we held on to a life preserver. We got to hold starfish, urchins,sand dollars,sea cucumber,etc. Felt like we were Royalty. Iquana preserve is amazing. Clean. Excellent tour leader. Got to feed Iquana. Reasonable priced souvenirs. Wonder memories. Our driver was friendly, interesting and got us back to port with plenty of time to shop and board the ship. I recommend Viator every chance I can.

More than exceeded expectations!

Henry was wonderful! A quiet guy that gets to the point. The only 'complaint' was he was so quiet, wish he would have been able to tell us a bit of the history of Roatan as it was a small town with beautiful scenery. We had a private tour of 3. It was simple, a breeze to get to our destinations between the iguanas & monkeys. idr the lady that showed us the iguanas as it was a unique & pretty name but she was very knowledgeable of the iguanas & tarpins. The sanctuary was very thoughtful of the items they feed the animals so to ensure tourists really got the opportunity to see them up close & active. Owen at the sloth/monkey/macaw sanctuary was also great in the same manner & patient with us as we took our time interacting with the animals & asking questions!! Larry & Yiel took us snorkeling right off of where we saw the monkeys/sloths & again were phenomenal about our tour! They explained how to get started, if we've gone before & explained our tour layout prior. Yiel especially made an effort to show us the sea life as we went along the shallow reef seeing several varieties of creatures! This was by far the BEST tour we've had hands down! I would do it all over again, there wasn't much of a moment where I felt our time was wasted or we were waiting around. THANK YOU for being avail for this wonderful experience!!
