The best way to experience Roatan - Wonderful adventure day! We saw so many things... we expected sloths, monkeys and butterflies but also saw some beautiful overlooks, a local grocery store, souvenir shops (and gave us advice to make good deals). We saw 2 chocolate shops and many parts of the real life of the island (schools, culture). It was a very full tour. Our only advice is to share in advance the parts most valuable to you. We were just along for the ride and was waiting for a chance to see butterflies. It was late in the day and we began asking about butterflies. To their credit, the tour guide Darby and the very skilled driver quickly made his way across the city and we barely made it (but we did get to see) the butterflies! It was such a great trip. We wish we had brought more cash for tipping (some of the souvenir shops only took cash, there were site guides within the tour (like monkey handler, sloth handler,etc.). So we didn't have as much cash at the end of the day to show the appreciation we felt. We're so glad we took this excursion instead of the large group from the cruise ship. Darby (and the driver) were fun, knowledgeable and their love for their country and culture was evident! Thank you for an unforgettable day!!

Great trip over a beautiful island with beach stay - There were two of us on the road with our guide Nick. Nick gave us a wonderful day with his cheerful, open-minded nature, provided a lot of information and responded to our wishes. The island is beautiful and very, very clean. We were able to pet sloths and monkeys up close, a short stop at chocolate and rum factories was there and the stay at the beautiful (!!!) West Bay Beach. Loungers and umbrellas would have been available at the on-site restaurant for $15 p.p., but you could also sit at the table and enjoy the beach views during a reasonably priced meal. I would definitely recommend the trip with Nick from Nahomy Tours!

Book this tour! - Perfect Roatan day! Our guide, Nick, was absolutely incredible. He was respectful, friendly, and had answers to all our questions about everything. My wife and I were dripping around in a comfortable, air conditioned van. It was just the two of us; we were not with a group. The sloths and monkeys were a one of a kind experience. We got to get up close and personal with them (and they with us). The rum and chocolate tasting came next. It was super fast and good and we were on our way to the beach. Nick recommended an amazing beachside restaurant for lunch. We had a delicious meal of red snapper, plantains, coconut shrimp, and chips and guacamole. It was a bit more than the $20 the excursion site stated, but totally worth it! We had as much time on the beach as we wanted; Nick was totally flexible in allowing us to return to our ship whenever we were ready. Highly recommend.

Christian met us with a... - Christian met us with a huge smile just outside the port, he was easy to find once we got through the port gates. He was so friendly and wanted to make sure we had the best day exploring all of the best bits of this great island. He checked that we were happy with everything throughout the day. He gave us a few different options to tailor our trip to exactly what we wanted. The sloth sanctuary was great, you get up close to guinea pigs, sloths, parrots and monkeys going in to all of the enclosures, great for adults and kids alike. The chocolate factory, coffee and rum stops were fun and we got some great souvenirs to bring home. Christian was a delight and we feel we have made a new friend, I promise, you won’t find a better host. Nothing was too much trouble and his knowledge of the island was great. The mini van was very luxurious and modern, a very nice surprise. Fab to be our own little group (4) rather than the big cruise organised groups. It’s really nice to support the locals too of course.

Best day in Roatan - We had a great time with Darby! We were able to see so much of the island. She told us where to get souvenirs and how to make sure we got the best deal, listen when she tells you she can find it cheaper! She even bought me a couple of bottles of clear vanilla from the grocery store. Very down to earth and friendly. This is your adventure, they just make sure you have fun! My daughter and I really enjoyed the zipline! We skipped the beach because of weather but saw so many other things it didn’t even matter!

Highly recommended! - Tour guide (Dennis) was waiting just outside the cruise gate ready to go. This tour is perfect for a day trip off the ship, and you get to see all highlights of the island. The locals are all super nice, and the food at Lorettas was fresh and delicious. Highly recommend this tour!

Great day in Roatan - We had a great time on this activity and learned a lot about the island. Christian was knowledgeable and friendly, making the day fun. Our favorite parts of the excursion were the monkeys/sloths and hanging out at the beach.

Amazing experience - 5!! Darbie was excellent. She made us feel very welcome and comfortable traveling as a group of 3 women. She listened to what we wanted and took us to the best places for what we were looking to do! She even brought some local snacks that were delicious. She also stayed with us and would keep an eye on us and our things from a distance and checked in occasionally. We had private transportation which was reassuring knowing we can leave whenever we want and knew we would get make it back to our ship on time and she assured us she would not let us miss the ship! Overall I would highly recommend them!
