Echoes of the Garifuna Tour

A Journey Through History, Culture, and Spirituality

📍Punta Gorda, Roatan (Honduras)

Tour Description:


Step beyond the surface and immerse yourself in the rich heritage of the Garifuna people with our Echoes of the Garifuna Tour. This experience is designed for those who seek a deeper understanding of our history, culture, and spiritual traditions—beyond the typical drum circles and performances.

As descendants of the first Garifuna community in Central America, we have spent years gathering knowledge from historians, travelers, and our own lived experiences. The echoes of our ancestors’ stories resonate through our journey, and we invite you to be part of this profound cultural exchange.


What to Expect:

Introduction to Garifuna Culture – Our journey begins at a landmark with a breathtaking view, where we share the origins and resilience of the Garifuna people.

Authentic Garifuna Lunch – Enjoy a traditional meal at a Garifuna-owned restaurant, where we will explore the significance of indigenous food, cultural artifacts, and historical exhibits.

Garifuna Spirituality & Landmarks – We conclude at another landmark, where we discuss the intersection of Garifuna spirituality, faith, and ancestral traditions.
