    This was the best excursion on our trip I got to hold the sloth's amazing cute animals and the monkeys, Guinea pigs and parrots. I would definitely recommend this excursion to anybody who makes it to Roatan, Honduras. The monkeys can steal your sunglasses or key chains so empty your pocket before going into monkey cage. The parrots speak it was fun listening to them.

    What a blast! Definitely memories we will never forget. Getting to hold a sloth was pure joy. Cutest animal ever! Not to mention holding parrots and having the monkeys climbing all over us. Could not have asked for a better excursion. The staff was extremely knowledgeable and patient with the visitors. If you visit Roatan via a cruise or staying on the island this is a must do!

    This is a truly interactive experience. The handlers take great care to treat the animals with respect while still allowing visitors to interact with them. Special thanks to Jacob for his work with Baby Kai the Macaw. Meeting the two of them was a dream come true! Iā€™ve been on several ā€˜animal encountersā€™ style excursions. This is by far the best one Iā€™ve been on. I also traveled with another experienced cruising couple who shared the same sentiment. As part of this experience we got to hold Guinea pigs, a sloth, a macaw, and white faced Capuchin monkeys. We got plenty of time with each animal group and never felt rushed. The handlers answered questions and told about each animal as we visited with them. All the enclosures were spacious and clean, and the handlers also told us that they rotate to much larger indoor enclosures so the animals donā€™t feel overwhelmed. They even had a drink and snacks stand. I had nothing to complain about. Thank you all for the fantastic experience!

    The love for their animals is strong. They were amazing, so organized. I felt they did an amazing job educating our small group about the animals. Really enjoyed them, best stop on our entire trip.

    My family and I were there on Wednesday 6-27-23. We had an amazing experience. We were on a 7 day cruise with 3 ports of call, and the trip to AJ's was our favorite experience during the entire trip (was not a Carnival excursion). Holding a sloth and playing with monkeys was an experience of a lifetime. My mom was in a wheelchair and the special accommodations that were made for her was wonderful. She didn't miss out on a thing. The snorkeling was one of the top snorkeling trips we've ever done(and we try to snorkel every chance we get). A special shout out for Jenson, our driver, for being there every step of the way and going above and beyond helping us. We'll never forget it.

    Amazing!!! Very short little excursion but so worth it. We were able to hold a sloth and be in the same cage as a baby! My husband held a Scarlett Macaw and we got to hang out and chill with some monkeys. Incredible experience!

    Such a great place to visit with our family. We went on a shore excursion with our cruise and the staff were so accommodating and informative. The sloths were AMAZING and the monkeys were fun to hang out with. The macaws were awesome as well. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone!!

    The ease and affordability of booking this excursion was top notch. Hands down, this was my FAVORITE excursion ever. It was more affordable than the cruise line, had great, knowledgeable, tour guides, and everyone was super nice! Super easy to get to the meeting area and to reserve your spot. Book directly with AJ's - it's definitely worth it! Memories of a lifetime.

    Really loved this place. You could tell the all the animals preferred their people and were well looked after. They gave us a lot of good information about the animals. The areas were clean and easily accessed, even in the rain. The guides were patient and knowledgeable.

    This place was incredible! The tour guides were so friendly and professional. Everything is so clean and well organized. From the moment we were greeted to when we left everything was wonderful.

    Such a fun experience, all the workers were so fun and knowledgeable and we spent a long amount of time with each animal. Our driver Charlotte was awesome.

  • 5/5 Libor M. 6 months ago on Google
    who explain everything, knowledgeable. the animals are clean, happy, they are doing well here. entrance fee is only 15 dollars per person, it is worth it for the experience and contact with the animals! I highly recommend a visit.

    My husband and I had the best time! The sloths were my favorite part. I was able to hold one, and she was soooooo cute. The staff were also very knowledgeable and kind. They answered all of our questions with ease.

    Loved visiting with the monkeys and sloths! The staff was very knowledgeable and friendly. We also got to hold baby Guinea pigs! I was so in love with all of the animals. The animals all seemed well taken care of. This was the highlight of our vacation.

    We really enjoyed the park. The animals are well kept and obviously loved by the staff. It is a small farm but not real crowded. There appeared to only be a few sloths but we enjoyed holding them. Watch out for the hyper monkeys but they are fun! It was a fairly brief visit.

    Wonderful to hold sloths, guinea pigs, monkeys, and parrots. Great photo ops! We had a number of young guides and handlers. They were all very friendly and accommodating, and very concerned about the safety of both animals and guests. Don't miss it!

    This was my favorite thing we did on our cruise. I booked it directly through their website. When we got off the ship, they had a driver standing there with our name written on it. He drove us to AJā€™s and also back afterwards. The whole experience was wonderful. The sloths were so soft, clean and well taken care of. The capuchin monkeys were so fun as well and loved all their treats. They also had macaws and lots of guinea pigs. So happy we booked AJā€™s Monkeys and Sloths and canā€™t wait to go back again

    This place was the highlight of the 4 stop cruise. There were a ton of people there but the line went fast and the wait was short. First we got to hold the Guinea Pigs (which were adorable), I think they have these to keep you occupied while you wait for the sloths. Next we got to see and hold the sloths (my new spirit animal). You can tell that all the animals are well cared for and there isn't a bad smell or anything here. Third were the Red Macaws and they were beautiful birds. Finally, were the Capuchin Monkeys. They were so much fun trying to take photos with my camera and hugging my arm. I would definitely recommend visiting here even if you don't land in the French Key area, we took a taxi from Coxen Hole and it let us see a lot more of the island (for cheaper than the cruise shore excursions).

    Great place to see monkeys, sloths, and exotic birds. The only reason Iā€™m giving this four stars is because it is a bit run down. But they said they were working on building a new location next year. I love capuchin monkeys, and it was a very fun experience to be able to hold one and interact with them.

  • 5/5 Villa Cuatro M. 1 year ago on Google
    Short and sweet! This is not your informative, learning experience tour but for 15$ a person you get to hold few animals and it is so great! How often do you get go hold a sloth?! I think only in Roatan! The staff is very nice too! Whole experience took us up to 30 min. Kids and adults loved it!

  • 5/5 Jake K. 1 year ago on Google
    What a fantastic shore excursion! We booked directly with AJā€™s and had an amazing experience! Our guide Jensen was so patient and accommodating which we needed due to some luggage related issues. He even took us to some local stores for necessary shopping! Overall it was an amazing experience with amazing service and a personal touch that was above and beyond what we had hoped for!

    Absolutely loved this place if you are in Roaton consider going to this place the other place works with the cruise ships and they are packed here is a much shorter wait. And the monkeys are adorable. If you have colored hair they will like you! We got to hold Sophia (Sloth) so adorable!

  • 5/5 Slava P. 1 year ago on Google
    There is something about interacting with animals that makes everyone so happy. We had a great time, our kids were so happy we chose this excursion. If you love animals, it should be a must on your list when you visit Roatan.

  • 5/5 Chris W. 1 year ago on Google
    Stopped at this place as part of a cruise tour and absolutely loved it. The staff here was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, and made sure we had a good time! The sloths were the best part in my opinion. I was able to hold Turbo for a long time and learned a lot about the animal. The monkeys were fun too - just make sure you have NOTHING in your pockets as they will find it and take it! I highly recommend visiting this place while in Roatan!

  • 5/5 Lucinda R. 1 year ago on Google
    What an amazing experience we had!! We got to cuddle with a sloth and it was definitely one of the highlights of our lives!! Macaws were beautiful and the monkeys were mischievous!! Highly recommend!!! This was a Carnival excursion and we got our tickets in advance! Beyond amazing!

  • 5/5 Jess M. 1 year ago on Google
    Loved this excursion! It was so amazing to hold a sloth and learn about them. And the monkeys were just hilarious and so fun to be around! You never knew when one was going to jump on you. They even had beautiful birds you could have sit on your arm and feed. Def had fun here! Thanks for the wonderful memories!

  • 5/5 Matt O. 2 years ago on Google
    This was our kids favorite excursion of the whole cruise. The staff are amazing and it was beyond fun to hold all the animals. We felt safe the whole time and really the only down side was wishing we could have stayed there all day.

  • 5/5 Jake F. 2 years ago on Google
    I went here through a Royal Caribbean shore excursion. It was well priced and thoroughly enjoyable. I would recommend to any animal lovers. We were able to hold Guinea Pigs, sloths, and a parrot. The finale was going in the monkey cage where monkeys climbed all over us and around us. 5 stars. Would do it again
