Our Accommodations and Meals in Honduras
Casterbridge Tours chooses 3-star and 4-star hotels, but you are always free to request alternate accommodation for your group. Each hotel is evaluated following each stay and we continue to use only those who are consistently rated highly by our groups. When possible, we prefer to use smaller, family owned hotels as opposed to giant concrete monoliths. Please feel free to ask for a list of sample hotels in the area your group will be traveling.
As part of our educational travel philosophy, we always strive to give our groups extensive exposure to the local people and culture. Part of that experience is, of course, sampling the local cuisine. Therefore, unless you request it, your Casterbridge tour will not include a lot of American chain restaurants. For dinner, you will sample regional cuisine, either in your hotel or in neighborhood restaurants.
This means that as much as possible, we will have meals in local restaurants away from the hotels for an authentic dining experience.

A standard Casterbridge Tour includes the cost of all admissions, excursions and cultural activities. There are never any optional excursions or activities. We feel that if you have come the distance to be here, you should have the opportunity to enjoy as much as you can without having to reach into your pocket again. In addition, Casterbridge is one of very few operators who will pre-book your group into as many major attractions as we can.
