Discover La Ceiba, Honduras' Ecoturistic Capital Half-Day Tour

Get to know the geography, essential points, culture, and history of La Ceiba. We will take a tour of the town while I explain the details about the different places in the city.

La Ceiba is multicultural, after the native Tolupanes, the Garifunas arrived, later the immigrants from the center of the country, first for political reasons, and second because of the banana fever that made this city a pole of development, which also attracted immigrants from overseas.

We will finish the tour by car in a souvenir shop in the city so that you know the local crafts and can buy your souvenirs if you like. Later we will have dinner in an excellent restaurant across the street.

By the end of this tour, you will have excellent knowledge and "flavor" about this important place.

This view is the Caribbean sea coast and the Nombre de Dios mountain range in the background. In a way, this defines the city of La Ceiba.

This building was the first agency of Banco Atlántida. This bank started operations in 1913. When I was a child, I used to visit my grandfather, who worked there. Notice the European style of the building.
