Great tour

jeffrey_s, May 2024

Aaron our driver was excellent. Very knowledgeable about the island and even added a bonus stop at a chocolate factory. He also offered to stop for anything we needed along the way. The encounter was great. Not rushed and got plenty of time with the animals. All in all, an excellent experience. Highly recommend.

Highly recommend

Our guide, Jonathan, was phenomenal! He went above and beyond and made our excursion so memorable! I felt like I was getting a personal tour of the island. If you get a chance to book with Manawakie Park and Jonathan, I highly recommend it!

Did not visit port

RichardSiegel, Apr 2024

We did not dock. We request a refund. We were on the NCL Prima. We do have a cruise in 2025 that visits your port. Is it possible to use our tour then?

Jonathan tbe Driver and host was great. Very in formative and nice. Erin the guide at the Park was great too.

Fun experience!

A very cool experience! Aaron, our driver and guide for the day was amazing. Nice, easy to talk to, knowledgeable and just made it a very fun and comfortable experience. My favorite part was cuddling with a sloth, although it was very short, but still cool. The monkeys were super fun. My boys both loved this part. They climbed all over people. Sat on my head and tried to take my clip out (he was not successful) one sat on my son’s shoulder and just played in his hair for a while (he has great thick hair). It was really fun and different from anything we have ever done. The place is small and there were a lot of people. They should really expand the facility. Based on the number of people they had come in, it seems like it should be possible. My only complaint would be the group size. We had 25ish in our group. It should have been split in two, at least. But overall, I would absolutely recommend this. It was fun, funny and different from anything we have ever done before. The staff were also all very friendly.

Great island excursion!

Hollie_P, Mar 2024

This was a very fun experience. Jonathan was a great driver and tour guide. He talked alot about the history of the island and also some fun facts. They had nice cold water waiting for us. We got to see a few fun points on the island. Michelle (Obama) was also great, she taught us alot about the different things that grow on the island and how they incorporate that into medicine. Holding a sloth was so amazing. The monkey's will absolutely reach in and take anything you have in your pockets so make sure they are empty. They tried taking out my bobby pins lol.

Great guide and experience

nichole_s, Jan 2024

Ourre guide was great! Very knowledgeable about the island. He brought us to the ROATAN sign for pics. And he gave us a small tour on the way back as well. We even stop by a chocolate shop. The Animal interaction exceeded our expectations. I'd recommend this 1, as it's also more affordable and shorter!!

Pick up on time from...

Ellie_H, Dec 2023

Pick up on time from cruise ship port (note you have to walk over the hill to the port gates - local operators are not allowed in port area) Time to play with some monkeys and cuddle a sloth Driver very pleasant and told us all about Roatan on the drive, giving us a mini tour of the city

Amazing experience!

George_a, Oct 2023

It was a wonderful interactive experience with the animals! Our entire family enjoyed it! The guide was very informative, sharing interesting facts about the area.

Awesome and highly recommended!

The driver Juan Carlos was exactly where they said he would be outside the RCL port. The ride to the park was about 20 min and we got to see the local life in action on the way. We stopped at one scenic point for photos and a view of the ship. The park itself was quaint and perfect for the brief time we had to spend in Roatan. Getting to cuddle with Flash the sloth was a dream come true for my daughter and the monkeys had us all laughing as they played and jumped on us. Our guide Mark was patient and explained everything to us. My 10 and 8 year olds had a blast and are already asking if we can go back. Highly recommend. Fyi, I felt surprisingly safe, even traveling as a mom alone with the kids.

super fun

Gary_H, May 2023

the sloth was super cute and friendly and all the workers very kind and polite. we really enjoyed our time at this attraction

Response from Host, May 2023

Thank you very much for choosing us

Great tour

Peter_D, Apr 2023

Our tour Guide Samir is very knowledgeable and passionate and explained everything very clearly and did not rush through! We were given plenty of time to enjoy everything from the Mccaw, to the monkeys, and then to the Sloth. The Sloth Keepers Mario and Jonotna were just as knowledgeable and passionate of the Sloth and also gave us very ample time with the Sloth. Everyone from Manawakie was very friendly.. My wife and I had a great time at this park.. We would highly recommend this tour!

Wonderful experience. ...

Wonderful experience. Great driver, tour guide and experience. We were able to take pictures at our leisure. The sanctuary was well kept and animals looked after.
