The port is a little hectic, but Gabriel and team did a great job locating us and getting us to the right place. Roatan is in the process of improving their roads, so it was a little congested at times (no one's fault), but Gabriel did his best to get us to our destination as quickly as possible so that we could enjoy ourselves! We learned a lot of things about the island on our way, and he even played some Memphis/Nashville songs when he found out where were from. It was a beautiful place and we definitely plan to return. Thanks, Gabriel!

We had a great time with Angel. We did Island tour with him and used him for all the transportation we needed. Angel is a really nice guy and super knowledgeable, he also is a really good driver. He made the Island tour based on the places we wanted to see and also added couple of special places. If you go to Roatan, we would totally recommend to use Angels services, you will simply have great time and won't regret it.

Elias was our tour guide for our cruise stop in Roatan. We booked through Facebook and messaged through Whatsapp. Elias was in constant communication with us during the morning of our arrival, as we encountered a delay in docking due to a brief thunderstorm which passed through. We visited Manawakie Park, the Chocolate Factory & Rum Company, then enjoyed a delicious lunch at Ginger's. You will not find a more experienced or knowledgeable guide than Elias! We were so thankful to experience Roatan with Let's Go Roatan Tours!
