Creator's Key Takeaways

This was one of our favorite cruise days ever. Adorable animals, friendly locals, and so easy to plan on your own.

It was the easiest DIY port date we've ever done. half the price of the cruise tour.

We booked directly with a local Roatán tour company for only $40 per person, including pickup, the famous Monkey & Sloth Hangout, and an island tour.

This was way more personal than any big bus excursion.

✓Book directly with a local tour company for a DIY port day instead of expensive ship excursions.
✓Look for colorful poles and walk underneath them to exit the terminal to find tour operators.
✓Be calm and don't scream when monkeys jump on you at the sanctuary.
