Really nice tour. Glass bottom is a great alternative if you can’t snorkel or just don’t want to get wet. Rum and chocolate less of a tour more of a quick tasting and purchase option but still interesting. The Monkeys and sloth were adorable as a nice treat for my young at heart adult daughter . I would book again and using this platform. Private is also a great touch. Can really go at your own speed and add activities if necessary

Our experience with this tour company was a 10/10. Vicky and Roberto made our first experience to Roatan very memorable. It was a really rainy day so we were unable to visit the beach after our wildlife encounter. Instead of taking us right back to the ship, they took us to a chocolate factory and a restaurant for lunch where we had some of the best ceviche! I would highly recommend this tour company.

Had an awesome experience, be prepared for a full day of activities! Each activity is done by a different company so I would recommend bringing money to tip each one, if they do a great job. It down poured while zip lining. But it made it that much more fun. Snorkeling was awesome-very clear water. All the animals were fun you get plenty of time with each of them.

Great experience with Frankie our guide! Loved the monkey and sloth stop. The meeting point and time was a little confusing. The cruise ship did not convert to local time, but we were contacted via text and found our guide.

Anderson tours was awesome and so was Marvin. Very professional and flexible. Highly recommended.
