Recommended for private tour of the island. - I booked the private tour for 14 people. We were met outside the cruise port and had a van with air conditioning all day. There was a driver and a very friendly guide. He told a lot about life on the island. First stop was the monkey and sloth rescue. Talk to the caregivers, they know a lot to tell. The gift shop is reasonably priced compared to other gift shops. Then chocolate factory (no factory, more like a shop). En rum factory. Also not a factory but very tasty rum cake and different types of rum. Then to the beach. Guide arranged a day pass for a fee. Price was fine. Beautiful beach. Also booked through guide snorkeling. Absolutely worth it. If you really want to go to the beach alone then I would do a beach club near the rocks at the end of the beach. You can then swim to the reef. We got back to our ship just in time. Communication in advance was super clear. Absolutely recommended.

Bodden Tours Excellent Attention. - Formidable attention of Victor Bodden in the facilities leaving the Cruise, he offered us vehicle tour throughout the island, through the area with the sloth bears of Bodden Tours and transfer to the Beach. Benjamin was our assigned driver from whom we received excellent attention from him. Thanks for everything and greetings from Monterrey, Mexico.

Awesome! - Excellent! Tour guide was ready for us when we got off the ship. Van was clean and spacious. Took us to the Roatán sign for a photo op and had us to the sloths before the crowds (highly recommend!). Tour guide was flexible and kind. He had us where we needed to be at the right time, helped us get all the food we needed, and suggested all the right places!

Amazing Day with our Family of 10! - This turned out to be our family’s favorite port day! We were a group of 10, adults and children. Our tour guide for the day, Denry, was amazing! We started the tour with a drive to the monkey and sloth sanctuary. Denry spent the drive sharing lots of information about Honduras and Roatan. At the sanctuary, we loved the silly monkeys jumping from person to person. Holding the sloths was a highlight. Everyone got time to hold a sloth. Afterwards, our guide suggested several beach options, depending on what we wanted to spend. We spent the afternoon, about three hours, at a West Bay beach. Playing in the ocean, eating and drinking. Denry was more than happy to take photos of our group and with our group! At the end of our tour, we asked to go to the Roatan sign to get a few more photos before he took us back to port. Overall, great experience! Our tour guide’s knowledge and friendliness made it even better. Highly recommended! The reservation was made over email. They responded very quickly when I emailed to reserve this tour months before our vacation. A reminder email confirming the trip came about two weeks before our vacation and gave us all the information we needed to find our tour kiosk at port and what to expect the day of.

Great tour! Definitely book! - This tour was wonderful! We did a private tour with just 6 of us and were able to do exactly what we wanted. Our driver, Big Al, was friendly and helpful--he gave us a lot of history and went out of his way to show us some cool sites. We were most interested in the Monkey and Sloth experience and it was so great! We have two fairly timid kids and the guides were so gentle and patient with them. It took some time but both of my timid kids held sloths! That would not have happened if we had been rushed. Our animal guide, Arthur, was so patient and calm! We loved it! And going int he enclosure with the monkey was so fun! The best part!

A Great Day Seeing Roatan with Tex!! - Ask for Tex! He does an incredible job of showing off his island, including the monkey/sloth at the Mayan Jungle Canopy, a ride through Anthony’s Key Resort, and drinks and lunch in West Bay. We came on the Wonder of the Seas and it was nice to have a local like Tex, who has been to our home state of South Carolina, show us around! Book now!

Great tour - We booked the private tour and selected the island sightseeing, sloth sanctuary, chocolate tasting, and beach stop. Victor was very prompt via emails answering questions beforehand. It was easy to find them at the port. Michael was our guide and was great. We were in a comfortable van with A/C. The sloths and monkeys were so cool. We got there early and had a nice tour. The sloth hug was a definite highlight. Michael recommended Henry Morgan resort for our beach stop. I was having a hard time deciding which place to stop for the beach break while researching, so we went with his recommendation. It was a great call. The beach was very clean and the water was beautiful. We were able to book a snorkel trip by boat out to the reef through the hotel and that was wonderful. We saw a ton of fish and even a barracuda. We only got drinks here and decided to just wait and eat lunch back on the ship, so I can't speak to the food. There were vendors who occasionally came up, but a simple "no, thanks" worked and they'd move along. We let Michael know we likely stay at the beach for a couple hours and he was waiting and ready for us. We got back to the shop in plenty of time after stopping by the large ROATAN sign for a scenic pic. We had our parents and two kids (9 and 7) and we all had a great time. We would highly recommend Victor Bodden for any tour in Roatan!

Customizable tour… DO IT!!! - For $58 to go wherever I want on the island was insanely good! Me and my daughter were there as one of our stops on a cruise and Bodden tours was professional! I wasn’t aware of the departure time difference listed on my cruise vs the time on the island so I’m glad my tour guide asked and educated me on that to be sure I didn’t miss my departure back onto the ship. Norma was our guide and she wasn’t bossy, she gave respectful opinions on utilizing our time as I had it planned out for me and my daughter to zipline, do ATV’s, visit the animal sanctuary where they had sloths, monkeys, macaws, etc and I knew we wanted to parasail which I wasn’t finding as an option to do on my other stops thru the cruise or even thru trip advisor. It was a busy day but it was a fun day. She was respectful of our time, our space, and even telling us about the island while she drove us around. Norma was very professional and made it easy to talk to her throughout our whole experience. She also wasn’t trying to overcharge or let us get overcharged, I mention this because I’ve been to other stops where sometimes when you’re a tourist, people try to charge you more. I want to go back again and I would highly recommend bodden tours! Absolutely loved our time in Roatan☺️

Wonderful visit! It was my favorite port on the cruise. - The tour was so much fun and so reasonably priced. George was an excellent guide and was very helpful to my 88 yo friend and me. We loved holding the sloths and monkeys. He took us to see a beautiful view and to a local craft market. Be sure to get some mahogany while in Honduras.

Private Tour is the Best - Landing in Honduras for the first time, I knew I wanted to see the island and none of the excursions the cruise line offered looked appealing. I booked directly through the company website a private tour. They were very good at booking and answered all my questions. Traveling with my 80+ year old mother and my 18 year old son, we had asked for a chill day of places to take photos and just a quick tour of the island. No ziplines or ATVs for us! Once we arrived we were quickly whisked to our driver for the day. A short walk to his vehicle was a wee bit treacherous but the driver was helpful with my mother and it was all fine. As we left the port our driver was very friendly and pointed out places special to him as he’d grown up on the island. He took us to see the sloth sanctuary straight away. This was a highlight of our entire cruise!! On our way to the next destination, the vehicle we were in stalled out right in front of a zip line operation. Our driver had to pivot quick. He was able to borrow an employees car from the zip line to get us to the beach. Once he ensured our safety there, he left to return that vehicle and get a coworker to be at the ready to continue drive us and him around. What is important is that he told us he would be 30 minutes and he was. Also. He ensured our safety at all times. We know stuff like this happens, but we made the best of it and never once did we feel panicked that we weren’t going to make it back to the ship. The stops we made were amazing. Looking back on our photos, our driver delivered exactly what we were after!! We also stopped at a chocolate factory had the yummiest chocolate that I wish I would have bought. We went to a rum factory,…again, I wish I would have bought. We saw beautiful sites, and got to see enough of Routan, Honduras to know we want to come back!! This tour company is ace and I would recommend again and again.
