I have known Ben for the past five years. He has leaded a number of trips where I was involved. He has always been prompt, knowledgeable and helpful. He has a clear view of what I need when I come down to Honduras for medical brigades, and he has always done what has been asked of him. He worked for four years with an internationally known Non-Governmental Organization, and this is where I first met him. When I was working with this organization, Ben was the coordinator for all of these trips, and I always felt save in his hands. He has an excellent knowledge of the needs of brigades and about the types of troubles that foreigners can get into. He always has had a keen sense of safety that is always appreciated. I have worked with other guides both in and out of Honduras, and he is clearly the best that I have worked with.
If there are any questions about his abilities, I may be contacted via E-mail at

" I planned to spend seven full days traveling in Honduras for an NGO in 2000. I cross-circuited the country from top to bottom and back again,
however, I was unprepared for a few things. It was the first time I had traveled in a developing nation, in Central America, and in a predominantly non-English speaking country. Hoping to make it on logic, luck and very little Spanish was somewhat naive. Thank goodness Benjamin was my designated escort from the very first day. His English is excellent and he was able to understand my questions and communicate well with me. From money exchange, to recommending low-priced yet excellent accommodations, to his knowledge of the geography, history and current status of Honduras, to having contacts throughout the country, Benjamin was certainly an asset to
have around. But that wasn't all. Benjamin also has a tremendous amount of patience, a great sense of humor, and a well rounded understanding of many things as well as a healthy curiosity in order to have good conversations on those very long drives and the interviews with non-English speaking Hondurans.
I have been fortunate that my first travels to a developing nation was a good one. I have traveled to other developing nations and although I have had other escorts throughout my journeys, none have had all the necessary assets that Benjamin does in order to make the experience less complicated. I highly recommend hiring Benjamin for your travels to Honduras. "
