Ahoy Mates!
Welcome onboard Royal Caribbean’s Liberty of the Seas! We are sailing seven nights from Galveston Texas on a Western Caribbean itinerary visiting Roatan Honduras, Costa May Mexico, and Cozumel Mexico! We are onboard this Freedom Class ship to try some new offerings, such as the Tidal Wave waterslide, Saturday Night Fever theatre show, and Sabor modern Mexican cuisine restaurant! There are also many Royal Caribbean staples onboard such as Studio B ice skating rink, Perfect Storm waterslides, FlowRider surf simulator, and Windjammer buffet!
Welcome to Roatan Honduras! This is our first time cruising to this port and we have a very exciting excursion today! We are visiting two different animal sanctuaries featuring sloths, monkeys, and iguanas! The amount of interaction we experienced with these animals was incredible! We one-on-one cuddled with sloths, played with capuchin monkeys, and fed iguanas! We learned so much about these creatures and had an unforgettable day! Transportation, entry, guide, and information was included in this Royal Caribbean excursion!

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!
That was awesome!!! The monkeys were to funny. The sloths were cool.
Hi KC & DALLAS the Beagle! Yes! The animals were awesome! Sloths and monkeys had opposite energies but both were so special! 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! 🤗🛳❤️
This was the most awesome excursion ever!! Chelsy-I have no idea how you didn’t cry when you held that sloth 🦥
Hi Parrysh! ❤️ Right!? It was so special! The sloths we’re so gentle and precious! I could held them all day! 😍❤️🦥 Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🤗
Gracias por venir a nuestro país sean todos bienvenidos a Honduras.
Thank you for welcoming us and thanks so much 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.
Hi CW Moore! It was amazing! We could have stayed there all day cuddling with those cuties! 😍🦥 Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🛳
I absolutely loved this vlog!
Yay! Thanks Michelle! So glad you enjoyed it! 🤗❤️🤗
I felt like I was on the shore excursion myself watching this. Great job capturing it and I appreciate both of your enthusiasm.
Hi Robert! Thanks so much! We’re so glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🦥
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! 🤗❤️🛳
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! 🤗❤️🤗
@@HoffmanHappyTravels 😍
Great video, I'm from Honduras.
Greetings
Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🚢
Hey guys! I love your channel so much! In some Central American countries “Puchica” is a saying like “oh shoot” or something like that.
Hi Aura! Thanks so much and thanks for the fun fact! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🛳
Booked a cruise on Icon for next summer and will be in Honduras and this place is a must for me. I must hold a Sloth.
Hi! It will be totally worth it! The sloths are ADORABLE! 😍 Have a great time on Icon! Happy Travels! 🤗🦥❤️
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".
Hi WCH! Awesome! Thanks for the tip! And thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🛳
Thanks on my way on the cruise
@wch, where did you get a private driver? Do you have contact info for your driver?
Roatan Honduras is a great port. It was one of my stops on my very first cruise back in 2009 with John
Hi Dipa! That’s awesome! We really liked it! What did you do in Roatan? We’re looking for ideas for next time we go! 🤗❤️🛳
I think we just did something at the beach. Oh it was Tabyana Beach Party! You should check to see if they have good snorkeling there.
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!
Hi Hannah! ❤️ It’s definitely worth a visit for this excursion! We absolutely loved it! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🛳
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
Thanks for watching Jason! 🤗❤️🛳
So fun following along with you two. We will be on the same ship same schedule in one week! Thanks so much.
Hi Bobby! That’s awesome! We hope you have a great time! Thanks for watching! Happy Travels! 🤗❤️🛳
Amazing job you lucky sweets can't wait to watch more of your CZcams thanks Kym Brookes Australia
Hi Kym! Thanks so much! So glad you are enjoying the videos! 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! 🤗❤️🦥🐵🦜🦎
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!
Hi Waypoint Explorers! Thanks for watching!
How awesome! We’re glad you enjoyed. 😁
Happy Travels!
Oh my gosh I need to take a cruise to Roatan just for that excursion! Thats amazing! Im glad you guys had such a great day
Do it!! My husband and I did the same excursion and we both also said it makes the entire cruise! Nothing will beat it.
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! 🤗❤️🛳🦥
Agreed! ❤️🦥❤️
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! 🤗❤️🤗
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! 🤗❤️🛳
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! 🤗❤️🛳
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!
That's amazing perfec video congratulation beautiful roatan honduras is my home country, i say hello from Virginia usa.
Hi Jose! Wow! Thank you so much and thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🦥
Thank you for sharing it looks Awesome. we are going there in Nov 2022 and now I am very excited
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!
Hi Kenny! Cool! We’ve never done Carnival to Roatan, but would love to see that area! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🛳
Full paradise honduras an beautifull
Hi Alex! It was such a fun day! 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 so much! So glad you liked it! Maybe we will do the chocolate tour next time! 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! 🤗❤️🛳
I just came from Roatan. I had a Blast
Hi Liza! Thats awesome! So glad you had fun! 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...
Hi Barbara! Oh I see! We hope you still had a great time!Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🛳
We visit in May 2023. After watching this I just booked it via Royals cruise planner.
Hi LR! Yay!!! We hope you have a great time and enjoy it! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🛳
I have this next year im so excited
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! ❤️🦥🐵
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! 🤗❤️🛳
Can I just tell you how much I LOVED this vlog! One day I’ll get to that excursion!!!! The monkeys were hilarious!!😂😂
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! 🤗❤️🛳
Great video
Thanks so much! 🤗❤️🤗
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! 🤗❤️🛳
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
That was absolutely amazing 💯. Animals are always the best ☺️. I don't remember if you mentioned it but how long was the excursion
Hi Dawn! ❤️ It was incredible! I think it was about 4 hours. Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🛳
Oh I would really like to do that excursion. One day I will get on an cruise that will go there.... one day
Hi bleep86! We definitely highly recommend it! It was a great excursion! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🛳

Hi Desiree! The sloths are really easy to hold and not heavy. They’re fur is coarse but pretty soft! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🦥
I’m taking the same cruise and I can’t find this excursion! I called RC and they can’t find it either… any tips? TIA!! Looks awesome!
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 Yoko Kurama! Typically they are, usually not far off the pier! Thanks for 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! I think the Royal Caribbean excursion was called Easy Monkey, Sloth & Iguana tour. Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🚢
How long was the bus ride?
Hi! I don't remember for sure but if you check the excursion info it may give that information. Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🚢

Anyone getting DMV vibes?? 😂😂
May I ask how much this cost per person?
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! 🤗❤️🏝

Hi Tina! I believe at this location you can just do the sloths and monkeys portions of the tour! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🚢
