About us

Since 1992 Turtle Tours  is an incoming tour operator dedicated to ecotourism and adventure travel run by two Germans and now based in La Ceiba, Honduras, Central America.

Paul Lamann - the founder of this travel company - worked for many years in the adventure travel market in Frankfurt a. M. / Germany.
As a professional he organized and planned many expeditions to the jungle area of "La Mosquitia" and built up close ties to the Indigenas in the National Park of "Rio Platano", especially to the "Commite de Ecoturismo" in Las Marias. 

 

 

  Matthias Henkel - who lived in Berlin before - joined the company in 1997. On a vacation in Honduras he decided to return to this country and to develop our tours and give a better service to our customers. For many years he learned about the culture and customs of the native people. He speaks English and Spanish and he turned into an expert guide for our Mosquitia trips now as our guestbook prooves. Matthias lives with his family in the Caribbean port of La Ceiba.
