Unforgettable Taste of Roatan Culture

This cooking class and cultural experience was one of the highlights of our trip to Roatán! The cultural portion was so insightful, and we came away with a much deeper appreciation for the island’s history and traditions. Both of our hosts were enthusiastic and engaging, and you could truly feel the pride and energy they had when sharing their culture and history with us. Our cooking teacher was fantastic: incredibly patient, encouraging, and a joy to work with. And the food? That was just the ...read more

Cooking at it's best!

From the time we got off the cruise ship it was a great experience! Reny was the attentive gracious host to the 4 of us to the point of making sure his car was spotless and he stayed with us the entire time making sure we had the best experience. Louis and his team made us feel at home as he told us about the culture and history of Roatan. And the cooking class was such a great experience! I would highly recommend Roatan Five Stars tours!

Sloths, Monkeys, and Honduran cooking class

We did a morning excursion starting with the monkey & sloth experience, and finishing with the cooking class. I would suggest doing both. The sloths and monkeys were a hoot. We got to pet the sloths and get in the monkey cage. Being a little germaphobic, I was initially uncomfortable, but I decided to get in. A monkey jumped right on my head and it was precious. We then went and learned to cook a Honduras meal. The team was incredible, and the food was over the top. It's one of my favorite excu...read more

Excellent

Driver picked us up outside of gate, about a 10 minute walk. Went to see the monkeys and sloths before our cooking class. Wonderful hosts, and yummy food. Learned some history of Roatan also. Nona was also there to help us out! Got the recipes and was given a lovely gift. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for something authentic and different. Much better than riding around in a bus, in my opinion! Thanks for a great experience!
