Excursión al Santuario de Perezosos y Monos en Roatán

Not sure if my first review went through but here i go again. Keisha was great. Booked a beach excursion after going to the Animal Sanctuary but before we got in our boat going to the island, a sudden downpour came out of nowhere and it went on for a while. We decided to not do it and they actually refunded our money even though it was weather related. I feel like they could have kept our money. Thank you!

This was so much fun. There were 13 of us. The bus driver that took us from the port, Brandon, was great. He talked about local culture and even stopped so we can get coffee and chocolate. The guides at the sanctuary were knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. They took their time and didn't rush us though. One of them even pushed a one of our members in a wheel chair for the entire tour. So much fun to interact with the monkeys. That was the highlight. Would highly recommend!!!

Long walk from ship and needs signage as we had to ask people where to go. Driver was amazing and we learned a lot about the country. Having monkeys walk and jump on us was so much fun. You cannot hold the sloths but you can get very close and take great pictures! The beautiful Macaws were an added bonus! Great event!!

It was a fun activity for all. The monkeys are hilarious, the birds are beautiful, and the sloths are amazing.

Had a great time! The monkeys were friendly and playful, and the parrots and lemurs made it an excursion to remember!

We would give this experience more stars if possible!! We were excited about the sanctuary but had no idea our driver would make such an awesome impression too. Ms. Rose, our driver, was the first person we met outside of the cruise staff and she greeted us with a smile. We expected to be shuttled in a bus, but it was a pleasant surprise to get to ride in Rose’s cozy, air conditioned car. It was my first time visiting Roatan, so Rose explained the island while in the car. She also patiently waited while we enjoyed the sanctuary. I’d book again just to spend more time with her and learn about the community! We also loved the sanctuary experience. It was well organized and paced so everyone has plenty of time to interact with the animals. The employees knew everyone wanted pictures, so they provided lots of opportunities and never rushed our group. Everyone got to hold a macaw and several monkeys. The sloths were spread out so there were lots of picture/interaction opportunities. My son and I went to the sanctuary while my daughter and husband stayed on the ship. They definitely missed out. This has been one of my favorite experiences while cruising! The sanctuary and Ms. Rose made such a wonderful impression that we definitely plan to come back and will be sure to use this company again!!

We had a lot of fun interacting with the monkeys and macaws and getting up close to the sloths. Our tour guide, Ana, offered a few optional stops for souvenirs or chocolate if we were interested and we were glad to take her up on her offer. It was interesting hearing her talk about her family and their experiences living in Roatan. Definitely recommend as easy excursion for families.

Amazing excursions, our driver Kessie was the best! She told us all about the island and even took us to a great local shopping spot to sample local coffee and chocolate. Perfect for adults and kids of all ages! The Monkey and Sloth park was also great and the Monkeys are very friendly. Highly recommended.

This is a pretty short experience, but some of the most fun that we have had on a cruise. Our guides were fantastic and the facilities were clean and organized.

Very interactive experience. Due to government regulations, you can’t touch or hold the sloths. This was very disappointing as it is a relatively recent law. However, they are in an open air area where you can get really, really close. I had one right by my head. You can take pictures and videos all you want. You can also have a macaw on your arm. The funniest part was the monkeys. You are placed in a large monkey habitat( enclosed) and monkeys jump on your head, shoulders, and arms. They are very cute and very entertaining. You really will not know what they will do ( nothing to harm anyone). The workers encourage them to come to you with bits of apple. There is a lot of laughter with the monkeys. This is suitable for all ages. Be advised that people can’t scream (especially with the monkeys) as it scares the animals. Therefore, consider the age and maturity of your child when booking. Our experience was about an hour long.
