Ann and John Pinzl, Carson City, USA, did the Rio Platano tour the rough way in Feb.2008 : overland in our 4 wheel drive pick up :  
"
We just wanted to let you know that our La Mosquitia journey was excellent. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and are glad that we did the land and boat travel, rather than flying.  The pickup truck travel along the beach and through the sea was most exciting.  Matthias was an excelent guide and a wonderful travelling companion.  Our thanks to you both for an enjoyable visit to Honduras in addition to our wonderful week of diving in the Bay Islands.  We will certainly recommend you tour company to any others who might be travelling to Honduras."

Jan and Sherry Jenson, Wisconsin, USA,  were very happy about the adventure to the Rio Platano :
" just a note to thank you so much for our wonderful adventure in the jungle! It truly was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that I will never forget. Sherry and I sincerely appreciate all that you did for us. We learned so much from you about the culture .......A special thank you to you for going that extra mile, for making us feel safe and comfortable in a strange environment that was way beyond anything we have ever experienced before, and for beeing flexible enough .......If we can do anything to recommend Turtle Tours and to provide references for you personally, we would be more than happy to do so. You have opened our eyes to a world we never before dreamed of."

Elisabeth and Claes Wahlgren, Sweden, took part in our expedition to the "Pico Dama" :
" Thank you for a great tour to the Rio Platano and Pico Dama! It was a really special and genuine experience with just the perfect combination of beautiful nature, culture, jungle adventure and time to relax. From what we saw in our week in the Mosquitia, ecotourism in the small miskito village ( Las Marias ) seems to work and Turtle Tours work in harmony with the local organisations and has a lot of knowledge about the area and the inhabitants"

Hannelore and Roland Feindor, Germany, enjoyed their 2 week's vacation in Honduras :
"In many ways it was an incredibly interesting vacation  we had in Honduras. With Matthias we had a competent and experienced guide who did his job well organized. At every moment we felt absolutely safe even in the jungle when we were sitting in a dugout canoe or crossing a river by foot. The hospitality by the locals made us forget about some inconvenience in the Mosquitia. .......And the Maya Ruins of Copan  were much more impressive as we thought....... The last week of our vaction we spend on Roatan: The Caribbean at it's best ! West Bay Beach was a real paradise with white sandy beaches, coconut trees and a wonderful coral reef for perfect snorkeling . "
