The only good thing was the employees, but the equipment they have is non functional and does not look or is safe. The little cars aspect of the trip was horrible one of them caught on fire will my family member was riding it.

We enjoyed our guide Glavin allot. Would highly recommend. Was courteous and helpful all day. The animal reserve was amazing and Tour great. Also the buggy ride was great fun. Just wish it was a little more muddy. The resort at the end was beautiful and was not crowded at all. The food we had for lunch there was very good also.
Here’s a polished, engaging Viator review with your fun personality baked in: ⸻ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Unforgettable Roatan Adventure – Ask for Glavin! This excursion was hands down one of the BEST days of our trip! Pro tip: get off the ship EARLY because the port gets super crowded. Thankfully, Glavin made it easy—he communicated exactly where to meet and was already there waiting for us (huge win!). Our first stop was the animal park, and WOW—such a fun experience! We had monkeys and birds literally jumping onto our hands and on top of our heads! The sloth was adorable and such a highlight—slow, sweet, and surprisingly photogenic! After about an hour at the animal park, came the Dune buggies—and YES, you will get muddy, so come prepared! It was an absolute blast driving the loop, splashing through puddles, and just letting loose. Definitely bring a change of clothes and a towel—you’ll need it! We wrapped up the day at a beautiful private beach where we relaxed, soaked in the views, and enjoyed some peaceful time before heading back. Glavin truly made the experience—he was an incredible driver, super fun, and shared tons of interesting facts about Roatan along the way. We felt safe, well taken care of, and never rushed. Plus, we got back to the ship with plenty of time to spare. Highly recommend this excursion—such fun memories made! And seriously… ask for Glavin!
If I can give this excursion 1000 point I would. It was the absolute best. Right off the bat the driver and guide were so nice and knowledgeable. Taking us to our first stop was the wildlife sanctuary. The host was super friendly and gave us some amazing facts about every single animal we saw. Second stop was to the jungle for our dune buggy/atv's adventure. Everyone there was also super nice. We are a family of 9 and it was nice for all of us to enjoy this. We got absolutely wrecked with the mud and water but that made the experience even better. We knew we would get dirty so we made sure to wear clothes we did not care to get dirty. After that we headed to the private pool/beach. This placed looked like where famous people go to relax. It was so beautiful and clean. We laid out by the pool with food and drinks and I even managed to get a massage by the beach. It was the best massage ever. This will be something I would highly recommend every single time.
Sloths and monkeys was a quick enjoyable stop. aTV’s were the highlight for sure! Be prepared to get muddy. The company they use could work on the conditions of their atvs. Our driver was excellent! We didn’t make it to the beach resort as we got off our tender boat a few hrs behind. But still worth the cost!
Awesome day! Erik picked us up at the port and took us to the zoo where we saw sloths, held monkeys and experienced other wild animals. Then off to some buggy fun where we got wet and wild. Finally, headed to Pristine Bay to relax a bit. Erik was fun and shared his experience on the island...it was an awesome 5 hours...with drop off right at the port to catch our ship.
We had a fantastic time. It was a fun, thrilling adventure. It was absolutely fabulous…so much fun. It was more fun than we ever expected. It is a definite must!
They never showed up for my 8am tour. After 45 minutes I had to reach out to Viator who also could not reach anyone from the company. They told me keep watching my email for an update. About an hour later they tried to reschedule for the next day
Dear Wendy, We're deeply sorry for the inconvenience you experienced during your recent tour. We hope you understand that accidents can happen, especially on our small island like ours where ships can bring lots of traffic at the same time. When our driver was involved in an unexpected accident caused by another vehicle from the back, we immediately reached out Viator and then to you with updates via text that you replied us with your wish to cancel and refund. Despite our best efforts to reschedule, you opted for a refund, which we immediately asked to process through Viator. What hurt us the most is that we had offered you a complimentary tour to make up for the inconvenience, showing our commitment to your satisfaction over monetary gains but were declined. We greatly value your feedback and hope you can understand that unforeseen circumstances can arise for anyone of us. We strive to provide the best experience possible for our most valued guests, and we're truly sorry that we fell short this time. Please accept our very best regards with apology for inconvenience! Kathy S.
We were laughed at and told by those that did not want to go because this would be a no more than 10mph kid friendly dune buggy tour. Well they were wrong, once the guide laughed and said yeah you're gonna get muddy, we knew it would be awesome. After the first mud puddle i was soaked and full of mud. For the next hour we raced around through puddles, up and down hills, and around tight corners. The guide even stopped and through a little history lesson in. This was a great time, and worth the money
10mph? That's just warm-up speed! 😉 We're thrilled you discovered our secret - that childlike joy of plowing through mud puddles never gets old. Your guide loved reading how much you enjoyed the perfect mix of history and adrenaline. We've actually added a 'Muddiest Rider' contest since your visit - the winner gets free photos of their glorious filth!
