Punta Gorda Sunday ATV Buggy Ride Jungle Trails & Beach Adventure

Traditional, Cultural Experience in Roatan

We had Glen for our tour guide to drive us to the village and ATV location. He was phenomenal. He taught us so much of the history and "off the beaten path" type tour. He is extremely knowledgeable and great personality. This is exactly what we wanted to see and experience the culture and traditions of those that have been in Roatan since late 1700's to now. Many traditions continue with families. I would recommend this tour over and over again. Once we got to the ATV park - it was a blast! The entire crew there was so kind and helpful. We had so much fun. The staff exceed our expectations. Absolutely wonderful!

Birthday Trip

Our tour with Brian Rashad was nothing short of amazing. He was patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely friendly—answering every question we had without hesitation. He even surprised us with Pine Cookies, which was such a thoughtful and unexpected treat. His calm and welcoming personality made the entire experience feel relaxed and enjoyable, like we were exploring with a trusted friend rather than just a guide. Now, let’s talk about the ATV ride—an adventure we were definitely not dressed for. Thanks to my daughter’s creative description, we expected a nice paved cruise. Well, it was paved… with dirt, mud, and water! Within minutes, we transformed from cute tourists into mud-covered warriors. We were soaking wet, covered head to toe, and completely unprepared without a change of clothes. Yes, showers were available, but without fresh clothes, that’s more of a wish than a solution. Brian truly went above and beyond. He graciously allowed four dripping wet, muddy women into his car without hesitation. He even let us roll the windows down so we could warm up and dry off, and he kindly stopped at a store so I could buy some shoes—because mine had officially surrendered to the mud. To top it off, someone on the property captured photos and video of our messy adventure, which we now treasure as proof of our unexpected transformation. If you ever visit Rotan, do yourself a favor and tour the East Side—especially on a Sunday. Just be prepared… and maybe pack an extra outfit. Mud happens, but with Brian as your guide, you’ll laugh through every minute of it.

False advertising

The description of this excursion is inaccurate. You do not drive an ATV to the Punta Gorda fishing village, you ride an ATV around a track in the jungle. In addition, the traditional ritual was not taking place on the Sunday we attended therefore we did not enjoy the song and dance. I was extremely disappointed and feel this was a complete waste of money. On a positive note, the ATV instructors and our driver were wonderful.

Response from the operator: Dear Zoen, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We acknowledge your concerns regarding the tour not driving to Punta Gorda on ATVs, as this practice has been discontinued due to new traffic safety regulations prohibiting ATVs and Buggies from touring on the roads. It's important to note that we have never advertised ATVs but did with Buggy only in past for such a service and prioritize the safety of our most valued guests in compliance with the law. We regret that the dance performance by the native Garifunas was canceled on last minute, which was beyond our control. We understand your disappointment and are willing to offer a partial refund for the inconvenience. However, as you booked through Viator, a third-party seller, they handle the financial transactions for their bookings, and we receive payment after deducting their high fees only after a month or so. We would be delighted to provide you with a raincheck for a future visit to experience the dance show in Punta Gorda. We encourage you to book directly with us for this complimentary visit to Punts gorda to support the local economy and ensure a seamless experience for your future visit. Please accept our sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused and we look forward to welcoming you back for a memorable music and dance show. Thank you for your understanding and continued support. Warm regards, Team ATV Dune Buggy Roatan

Punta Gorda dune buggy experience

This was the best experience we had during our visit to Roatan! The guide, Oscar, was very friendly and knowledgeable about the island. The communication between us and the tour company was excellent. We were picked up from our West End hotel and dropped off there as well. Our visit to Punta Gorda was the highlight of the excursion. The Garifuna people we encountered were all very welcoming and excited to teach us about their culture. We ate machuca, a traditional Garifuna dish, and had a couple of drinks at an over-the-water bar where the host and his wife took great care of us! We finished our visit watching the performance of Punta dancing and drums. It was such an exciting gathering of people having a great Sunday evening!! I highly recommend this experience for anyone wanting to get a glimpse of the Garifuna culture. Our guide was amazing and made us feel comfortable.

Response from the operator: Your review perfectly captures why we love sharing our Punta Gorda Sunday Funday adventure! We’re thrilled Oscar and the Garifuna community made your Roatan trip so special—from the flavorful machuca to those electrifying Punta dance performances. It’s exactly this blend of cultural immersion and genuine connection that makes our tour unique. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with Oscar (he’ll blush at the praise!) and the Punta Gorda hosts who welcomed you so warmly. Your recommendation means the world to us! If you’re ever back on the island, we’d love to show you more hidden gems on our east-end cultural tour—maybe try making cassava bread next time? Thanks for letting us be part of your unforgettable Sunday evening—we’re still smiling about your ‘best experience’ comment!
