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!
