Hey Happy Travelers! We've had several people reach out asking what the excursion was called that we did in this video. Here is the link to exact excursion we did: www.royalcaribbean.com/shoreExcursions/product/detail/view.do?sourcePage=shorexByPort&ProductCode=RTE6&DestinationCode= Happy Travels!
Hi Chelsy and Matt! This has been the most detailed excursion video we have seen. Love how much you have explained us about the animals. Thank you so much for taking us along! Happy Cruising! 🛳☀️🎉🌊
Thanks so much Ale J! ❤️ We love animals and we’re so glad you loved seeing and learning about them too! It was an unforgettable day! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🛳
My wife and I just became fans of your channel over the last few weeks. We have 4 Disney cruises under our belt and are new empty nesters now. We found your channel as we’re looking to try other lines and loved your Virgin Voyages videos. This video was adorable. When I told my wife about it she went from “No way! I would never get in a monkey cage!“ to “Awwww they’re so cute! I would totally do that” within 5 minutes of watching this. Thank you! Keep up the great work!
Hi acefox1! Oh wow that’s awesome! 😍 We are so glad you came across our channel and are enjoying the videos! Haha, the monkeys really are cuties! So glad this inspired to try something new! Thank you so much for watching and for the kind words! Happy Travels! 🤗🛳❤️
Hi Chelsy and Matt! Oh my goodness just seeing the happiness on your face holding the sloth was priceless!!! After watching this I am like yes this is what I want to do on my next cruise! Amazing 🥰
Hi Lacrecia! ❤️ Yes!!! It was AMAZING! The level of interaction you got with the animals was so special! I had no idea how much I loved sloths until that day! They were just precious! 😍🦥❤️ Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🤗
Best excursion review ever! I was immediately looking up cruises to Roatan after watching. Also, I really love how much you both care about the well-being of the animals. I’ve always been hesitant to book an animal-focused excursion because I want to know that the animals are really well-cared for and are happy, and I am so glad that you included information about that in this review! ❤️
Hi The Hungry Muppet! Thanks so much! We’re glad the video was helpful! We love animals so if they’re happy, we’re happy! We love supporting sanctuaries like this that are operating for all the right reasons! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🦥🐵🦜🦎
The sloth, monkey, and iguana activity was amazing. Matt, I didn't think you were going to get Chelsy back on the ship. There was sheer job on your faces. Great video.
I was there last month with my dad on the Oasis. We thought we had missed out on the sloth sanctuary when the excursions were all booked up. We ended up getting a private driver who took us around the island and to the sanctuary. We ended up having the monkey cage and sloth to ourselves and spent more time with them while the ship excursion guests had like 14 people cramped into one cage and had to share the same amount of time if not less. I had 3 parrots on me. One in each arm. I definitely recommend going on your own. Get a private driver for $80 for 2 people. It included the sloth exibit. He took us to the chocolate factory, and gift shops and where ever we wanted to go. Dont be afraid to haggle with the "gauntlet of sales people".
We just did this same exact excursion last week on our Oasis of the Seas trip! We got to hold Sid and we fell in love! Thanks for sharing your experience!
Pretty tops tour guides Thanks very much for the shared experience. I feel like I have been on Holiday But I just sat at home and had a beer . It's a bit well worth it . Grateful
That looks amazing! I thnk I want to change our cruise now to this destination! (I'm kidding.....too close and too many reschedules!). This is now a bucket list destination!
Olivia and Randy💗 so cute! Those monkeys were so curious and ornery but not sure how I would feel with them on my head. Chelsea you were so calm when you got pooped on! You both were so brave to pet the iguana's! Thanks for taking us along, I would definitely book this excursion!
Hi Gina! All the animals were so sweet in their own way! We definitely highly recommend this excursion, it was amazing! And I think if you go in expecting to get pooped on you won’t be too shocked if it happens! Lol 🤣 Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🤗
Hi Jenn! I don’t think you would regret it! It was such a fun and special day! The amount we got to interact with all the animals was incredible! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🛳🦥
LOVED the video from inside the cages with the monkeys! It's like the animal version of taking a GoPro on the zipline at Labadee. Now I know what it's like, I don't have to do it myself. Ha! (But my husband eats up all the critter interaction, so I'll stay outside the cage and take pictures.)
Hi SueBohlinDallas! Good! We're so glad the video was helpful to see what the experience was like! We loved it but totally get that it might not be for everyone! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🛳
Fantastic tour! We've been to Roatan once before and we did the chocolate tour at the botanic gardens (which I highly recommend), and we're going back in April and doing a beer tour... so this would be a really neat excursion to try instead the next time we stop in Roatan! Thanks for the tip!
Thanks Yvette! We're so glad you enjoyed it! The monkeys were so funny and the sloths were just the sweetest! You'll absolutely love it! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🛳
Roatan is one of our family's favorite places. We are no longer doing Carnival cruises but their port for this island is really nice compared to that one, but I think RC also do tours to Mahogany Bay. Cannot wait to see this port in July!
I loved your photos on Instagram from this excursion and have been patiently waiting for the video! We absolutely loved how you captured everything. Those 🙈 🙉 🙊 are just hilarious!! Loved their little faces. We have been trying to do this excursion but each cruise got cancelled! Next time we are in Roatan we are 100% doing this! Thank you for the awesome footage! 😍🤩
Thanks so much Luv to Cruise! We’re so glad the video was worth the wait! We definitely highly recommend this excursion! It’s so much fun! We hope you’re able to make it to Roatan soon! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🛳
This seems to be a very charming place, I hope I can visit sometime in the future. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much! And please keep up the great job! Subscribed!!
Hi Traveling is FREEDOM! Thanks so much for watching and subscribing! ❤️ We absolutely loved this excursion! It was super special! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🛳
This was a great vlog! I was just in Roatan in January, getting of the ship & seeing your shopping area sure didn't look like I remember it... I'll have to go again just see this portion of it...
I felt the same way with your sloth experience… can’t wait to do it again! The monkeys were hilarious… they wanted to see themselves when I tried vlogging with it. 🤣
Hi Always on the Moove! YES! The monkeys were so interested in the camera! They were all over Matt the entire time! 😂 We are so glad you enjoyed the experience too! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🛳
We did this same exact excursion on our last carnival cruise over New Years!! Sid was the male they had out for us! Patrica was the female and I got to hold her. She was so cute and soft and she smelled so nice! And ommgggg the monkeys. They were so entertaining. One nibbled my husbands ear and kept digging in it 😂 We got video of it digging in his pocket too haha. We said the same thing as you! That excursion seriously made the entire 7 day cruise. We will book it every time we cruise through Roatan. I want to hold one of the sloths again so bad!
Hi Lacey! Yes!!! We totally agree with everything! It was such a special day! It is definitely an excursion you can do over and over again! Thanks for watching! ❤️🦥🐵
If you're visitin Roatan I would recomend you look up LETS GO ROATAN Tours, experienced tour operator, has lived in Roatan since 1993 and seeing cruise ships since 1995 - Let's Go Roatan
Great video! I'm going there soon to see the monkeys too! It would be awesome if we could have a map in the corner of the screen with a "we are here" area to help me orient myself in your port tours or ship tours. Wadya think?
Hi KO Sketches! That is a great suggestion! It would definitely be a bit more challenging to create that graphic since we often are not provided with a map for the ports. However in the future I do plan on adding chapters to the ship tours so you can keep track of what deck we are on. Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🛳
We visited over thanksgiving. The sloth tour was fun but getting there was a bit unsettling. Walking to driver's van through a narrow corridor with all these young guy gawking at my daughters. Then the driver HAD to get gas and at the gas station there was a guard wielding an assault rifle while another patron had to relay to my driver how beautiful my daughter was. After the animal park the driver offered to take us to some other sites, but I just wanted to get back to the ship. We were on RC. Costa Maya was lame but Cozumel (dolphins and ATV'ing) and CocoCay were great days.
Hi Wolf! I'm so sorry you did not have the best experience getting to the tour. The sloths are absolutely wonderful but I understand the prior may have tainted the experience. Thanks for sharing and watching!
I clicked on the web site you have for the excursion and it doesn't say what the excursion was....do you remember what it was....I'm going there and would like to go to that place....thank you
Hi Chevy! Thanks for watching! It was called Accessible Sloths, Monkeys, and Iguanas, though it wasn’t actually an accessible only excursion. - www.royalcaribbean.com/shoreExcursions/product/detail/view.do?sourcePage=shorexByPort&ProductCode=RTE6&DestinationCode= 😁 Happy Travels!
Hi Christy Ann! I don't recall how much it was per person, plus price may change based on when it is purchased. I'm so sorry I don't remember the specifics! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🏝
