  Garifuna Tours   -   leaders in day trips on the Caribbean North Coast of Honduras
Imagine yourself walking through tropical forests teeming with a myriad of wildlife; surrounded on all sides by vivid sights and a penetrating chorus of sounds – snorkeling amidst a variety of pristine coral reefs, otherwise unreachable except by a ferry launched out to highly protected marine reserves – kayaking through narrow channels into untouched mangroves on the Rio Platano; alive with birdlife and butterflies, alligators and Howler Monkeys – an adrenaline-charged white water rafting trip down Rio Cangrejal - or simply lying back in a hammock oblivious to the world, after a typical Garifuna lunch on an unfrequented beach… the choice is yours..... and they make it possible.

  Language Courses   -   Learn Spanish Latin American
There are many factors that are attributable to the birth of the Latin American Spanish language but it is important to realise that it was a slow and gradual process. Although there are differences between Castilian Spanish and Latin American Spanish  -  particularly relating to pronunciation   -  they do not prevent mutual intelligibility.
The differences between these two languages are equivalent to those between British English and American English.

A sleepy coastal town that is rapidly becoming a favorite vacation alternative, Tela has grown from being the local headquarters of the Tela Railroad Co. into the premier beach vacation destination in mainland Honduras.

  Raotan Island   -   perla de las islas
"The world had become so small, despite my endless wandering. Finally I found, in a lost corner of the Caribbean, the perfect place to weigh anchor. Roatan off the coast of Honduras, a sublime island paradise unfolded before me, from a fine white sandy beach that stretched out before the red setting sun, to the exquisite diving and snorkeling so close to shore. I set about designing the perfect, intimate tropical beach resort."
  Santa Rosa de Copan
Nestled in the mountains of western Honduras, Santa Rosa de Copán offers a agreeable change from tourist traps and scorching cities. Its cool mountain climate, fine colonial architecture with narrow cobbled streets, and a reputation for friendliness combine to make Santa Rosa de Copán one of the region's most pleasant places to visit.
