Fun family day! - Victor and his Team were amazing! This excursion is one of our all time favorites and we will be back! The Hydrobikes were easy to maneuver even on a windy day. The harbor is beautiful and all the staff are knowledgeable and very accommodating. 10/10!!
My husband and son especially enjoyed the snorkeling as one of their top experiences to date. I highly recommend this excursion.

Hydro Bike and Snorkeling Excursion - The Hydro Bikes were very cool, and the snorkeling was simply amazing!!! But the best part of the excursion was our guide Victor. He was amazing and I would not do this excursion again without him as our guide. This was a 10 out of 10 for our family.

Perfect Mix! - This was the perfect excursion! Started with hydrobiking, got to snorkel and see the barrier reef, ended relaxing on a beautiful beach with calm waters.

Amazing - Dont think twice just book the excursion. Alex was so informative and made sure we got back to Port in time. Josh led us on the hydrobikes and was also a terrific tour guide. I Would definitely book this excursion again. The snorkeling was one of the best snorkeling tours I have ever been on. Can't give this tour enough stars!! Oh and the beach break was beautiful and relaxing.

Wonderful staff and great experience! - We had a great time on this excursion. It was raining the day we went, but we were still able to do all of our activities. The bike ride was fun. We had our little five-year-old with us and she was able to sit between us on a double bike with her feet in the water and she really loved that part. The snorkeling experience was really wonderful our guide Lauren was fantastic and we saw so many beautiful fish throughout the water and the coral reef. Getting off the boat to find our excursion was a little hectic. Continue through the entire port and get out to the main street. It’s a little confusing, but once you get there and find your guide, you will be put at ease. All of the staff were very kind and everything was well organized. We had members running late for our tour, but instead of making us wait for them the company sent us ahead. We really appreciated that. The private beach was not so private, but we still had a great time. Everyone had places to sit and enjoy their lunch and drinks. If you plan on getting the specialty drinks, make sure you bring cash for those. They are sold by a different vendor and not the main restaurant on the island. A special shout out to Victor and Trish! We wish you both a beautiful future.

Wonderful day trip with great people ! - Since we didn’t get the internet package on the cruise ship, we were concerned about meeting up with the excursion provider. But when we got off the ship and asked where we could locate the tour operator, we were directed to them by the other local tour operators, who were very helpful and friendly. Turned out we were the only ones signed up for the tour which was a bit concerning at first. Alex drove us from the ship dock to their facility explaining that this is the slow season for cruise ships in Roatan and that’s why we had the trip to ourselves. While they got the paddle boats ready he gave each of us one of the mangos from their trees after washing it off. It was amazing !! We chose the two person HydroBike to ride and it was perfect for us (we are in our 60s.)
Josh took us riding around the bay for 30-45 minutes and after we docked we were taken next door to the snorkeling facility. We were given our gear and taken by boat out to the reef. The Turtle Man gave us a guided tour of the reef, showing us the corals and other marine life. It was a wonderful 30-45 minutes of exploring ! After snorkeling, we were dropped off on a small island that had a nice beach area with plenty of lounge chairs for relaxing. We ordered conch balls and mango daiquiris and relaxed until it was time to shuttle back to meet up with Alex, who took us back to the cruise ship. Absolutely wonderful day!

Amazing experience - best of our trip! - We were on a Carnival cruise and decided to add this excursion on short notice. I was a little hesitant to book outside of the cruise line but I'm glad I did. It was easily the best excursion of our vacation. The bikes, snorkeling, and beach time were all thoroughly enjoyed by us all. The tour operators were all so kind, accommodating, and personable. It was easy to find the tour meeting spot and we were back with ample time for boarding. 10/10 would recommend!

Book iT! - This was THE BEST excursion we have ever done. So, so fun! Anyone, any age, any size can do this! To be able to ride around with little excursion and see straight down into the clear blue water was incredible. Before I booked, I had read several reviews that said "we do this every time in Roatan." And we will do it again too! Worth it! The driver was so kind to stop at their coffee shop to get an amazing coffee. Look for their sign when you walk out of the port, and don't walk far. They were on the other side of the street.

Very unique and fun! - Tyler was an excellent host. Very pleasant and informative about the island and the experience. Each additional guide (hydrabikes and snorkeling) were also terrific. It was the highlight of our trip to Roatan! Very unique experience that was not crowded but was super fun for our teenagers and parents! Strongly recommend!

Family Friendly Biking and Snorkel Activity - Such a fun experience! We’ve never done hydrobikes but they were super easy and fun to use. They first took us around the bay, and once we got back we joined another group to go snorkeling. It’s a drift snorkel—still some kicking required—but the current takes you along the shallow edge of the reef. Then they drop you off on one of the French keys where you can buy lunch, swim, or purchase other activities.
The only reason I rated it a 4 is because you probably need to have data to communicate with the company. They were super great at arranging transportation, and making sure we got back from the key on the ferry, but I’m glad I had data so I could respond. Otherwise, it was a perfect afternoon!
