Need 2nd Best Victor Bodden tour guide recommendation

[Twinswithtwins]

We've booked a private tour thru Victor in Roatan again. But 'Tex' has already been reserved! Victor says he has assigned Janeth to us, instead. Has anyone used her as a guide? Any other guide recommendations? We cruise in January so have some time to request a different specific guide. Thanks!!

While we were on Roatan for a week stay in July '12 we took a VB tour - we had Big Al as a guide and he was great ! Really friendly guy. Showed us the "real Roatan" not the tourist spots since that is what we requested.

Thanks!- I will email Victor today. I'm sure Janeth is fine- but want another 'Pro' like Tex. He was great.

Keep in mind - Janeth is Victor's wife. :)

Oops! I hope I didn't offend him when I emailed him back to ask for Big Al! He had originally told me that Tex WAS available. Then emailed me to say he had made a mistake. No problem really. I've heard great things about many of his guides. I'm sure Janeth would have been wonderful...

We had Norma Bodden, no relation to Victor, and she was very good.

We had Dollie (like Dole-ee) I'm not sure how it was spelled. He was incredible. Took us several places, pointed things out to us. Asked us if we wanted to stop at different places along the way, talked to us about what to buy where in terms of trinkets and what not. He helped us get a great deal on snorkel gear and was a riot to boot. I think all VB's crew is going to be good.
