I was born on January 4th, 1985, in a small town called Teupasenti.

A midwife delivered me at home, as the nearest health center was two hours away. I lived there until I was six, and then my family moved around Honduras.

At seven, I started first grade in Tegucigalpa, but I returned to Teupasenti for second grade.

After that, at age 8, we moved to Roatán.

My father worked as a security guard at a hotel, and I began accompanying him, learning English early on.

From ages 11 to 16, I sold hats on the beach. From 2000 to 2002, I worked as an underwater videographer at Anthony’s Key, doing underwater videos for people doing Dolphins Snorkeling in Roatan. We would sell those VHS Tapes to the tourists in Anthony’s Key Resort in early 2002.

From 2002 to 2004, I served at the naval base in Honduras. I was 18 years old, and the next year, I met my wife, Ana Rosa Calero.

May 11th, 2004, my wife Ana Rosa and I began our life together in Roatán. I worked at Paradise Computers, selling computer parts. In 2006, Ashley was born, and in 2008, I started working at Gumbalimba Park as a tour guide. That same year, my brother and I first dreamed of Let’s Go Roatan Tours, but it wasn’t until 2016 that I brought that dream to life. I initially tried selling tours face-to-face, but it didn’t take off. Then, I turned to Facebook, and that’s when everything changed. In 2020, during the COVID pandemic, there was a huge shift. Before COVID, we were growing steadily, but after the pandemic, everything changed. Today, our business brings visitors from all over the world to discover Roatán, and my personal journey is the foundation of this company. I invite you to join us and believe in a business built on a lifetime of passion, resilience, and love for this island.

Born from a childhood dream and a lifelong passion for Roatán, Let’s Go Roatan Tours is a family-driven business built on resilience and love for this island.
