Just book Explore Roatan! Just do it! - I booked a private excursion for my family of 4 with Explore Roatan tours instead of booking through the cruise ship. We did a beach break and horseback riding excursion. It was fabulous! Keisha was our wonderful tour“babysitter”/translator and she drove us all over and told us about the culture of Roatan. We were the first ones on the beach in West Bay and the water was wonderful! She stayed nearby if we needed anything. The beach was amazing, but watch out for the vendors who walk the beach all day! They are a bit aggressive, but just trying to make money. A simple “no thank you, maybe later” seemed to keep them at bay for a bit. My husband ended up buying a quick 60 minute snorkel trip from one of the vendors and was pleasantly surprised! Roatan has the second best snorkeling in the world!! He saw hundreds of fish and beautiful coral reefs. After a couple of hours at the beach, we did the horseback riding tour. We got to see some beautiful views of Roatan and culture! I was a little apprehensive about my 8 year old on a horse alone. But our guide put my mind at ease and had his horse on a guide rope the whole time. We rode on a back road to a beach and on the way back through the ocean! We had such a great time! Keisha got us back to our port with plenty of time to spare. We were so sad we had such a quick day as our ship left at 2:30. Even Keisha said usually the cruise ships are in port until later on in the day. I would recommend using Explore Roatan for a private tour! Thank you Keisha for a great time on your island!

Explore Roatan is Awesome!!!! - We booked a pontoon snorkel and beach break through Explore Roatan. It was an amazing experience. I can't remember the boat operator's name but he was great and lured the fish in to swarm around us. Kisha, our private driver, was awesome and spent plenty of time letting us hang out, showed us around, and stopped to let us eat lunch. 10/10 for Explore Roatan.
