Our tour guide was...
Our tour guide was Dolphus, and he was great! We booked last minute (literally four hours before the meet time), but had a great time! While the description for the aqua part was a bit vague, we were promised an opportunity to see sloths and monkeys, “aqua”, rum and chocolate. Dolphus took us to a local wildlife sanctuary where we got to hang out with monkeys, parrots and a sloth. Then we went to the Roatan Rum Company, and sampled their rums. We then went on a glass boat tour of the MesoAmerican reef, and then to Mayak Chocolates. The glass boat has service down at the reef, which is still quite surprising. Dolphus recommended a popular lunch spot near the sanctuary, and then took us to a location so we could take pictures at a lookout. He was a wealth of knowledge about Honduras, as well as local history and culture on the islands. My sisters and I really appreciated how open Dolphus was since we tend to ask a lot of questions.

Experience the beauty of Roatan with Michael
Our informative and friendly tour guide Michael took us to a chocolate and coffee tasting which was delicious and learned about the history of coffee beans and chocolate, a monkey sanctuary where we learned about their upkeep and enjoyed posing with baby fuzzy monkeys on our shoulders and took a beautiful glass bottom boat to showcase the fauna and beautiful fish and mezzo American reef and the air conditioning on board below kept us nice and cool and the young lady guide aboard gave us very detailed information about everything we were looking below and she also passed around a beautiful conch shell for us to experience the reef and admire its natural beauty. It was an awesome view and it certainly was the highlight of our day's tour thanks to Michael's special fondness of Roatan that he shared with us!

Enjoyable and convenient
We had a fantastic snorkeling excursion in Costa Maya! Everything was very well organized, and we had absolutely no issues from start to finish. A special thank you to Julie for being so helpful and making the experience even better. They also helped us arrange a taxi back to the cruise port, which made everything very convenient and stress-free. On top of that, they provided free access to the beach, which was definitely an added bonus and made the excursion even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this excursion to anyone visiting Costa Maya!

Hospitality Top Tier!!!
Our Tour Guide was Jordan JJ! We had an amazing time and would book again. My family and I really enjoyed all of the excursions including the animals and the semisubmarine. Most of all my mother who is elder and walks with a cane said she really felt included and that the hospitality and care was greatly appreciated. Thanks for creating a memorable experience that we will never forget!

Anticlimactic Excursion
The driver was kind and polite, but he had no idea of what we had paid for or where he was supposed to take us. He took us to the zip-line park which was a fun experience with over seven different zip-lines to slide down. We then went to the rum factory then the chocolate factory. Both were a waste of time and just a come-on to buy their wares. By the end of this we were tired and not in the mood to snorkel. Bottom line...don't waste your money on this excursion!
Response from the operator: Hi miss you right he took you to thr pachage you book which the zipline was not included so you should be happy you got aways but anyhave thanks for your support

Best of roatan by land and sea: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Roatan.
How much does Best of roatan by land and sea cost?
+
Prices start at $65 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Roatan usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Best of roatan by land and sea take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Roatan is not rushed.
Is Best of roatan by land and sea worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 9 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Roatan, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Best of roatan by land and sea?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Best of roatan by land and sea suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Best of roatan by land and sea?
+
Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Roatan can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Roatan and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Best of roatan by land and sea start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Roatan within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Roatan?
+
On Outty we rank every Roatan experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hydrobike Harbor Tour, Reef Snorkel & Private Island Beach Break, Roatán Island Tour: Sloth & Monkey Park, Rum, and Chocolate, Roatan Wildlife Monkeys,Sloths, chocolate Rum tasting Island Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Roatan?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Roatan?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
