we stayed on Balneario Alejandra 10 min north of Grancias opposite the Gas station. room incl. private bathroom is 150 for 3 persons. u can also camp there or hang a hammock. great food as well. the pool is fun as well and the family who runs it is great.

*there will be some guys coming to help you to find a place to stay for commission. they will offer something like 100Lemipira for private room with aircon, TV, WIFI, offer sounds good but too good to be true. No harm following them?
*beware of ‘La Casa de Tudos’, beside Hotel Los Gemelos, as it was a nice place but our dinner was taxed with 10% tips, 10%IVA and 15% alcohol tax, which we did not read in the fine print in the menu. Their internet password is 1a2b3c19fb.

*44km from Copan Ruina towards La Entrada on the left, or 20km from La Entrada towards Copan Ruina on the right, there is a nice fruit stall owner by the name of Yovany, pronounced as Jo-ba-ni. Honest, down to earth person, around 32years old with 3 children, selling cutted tropical fruits to the local tour buses that stopped at his stall. If you want to drink a cold sugarcane juice, eat some watermelon or make friend with a true local, this is the person. He didn’t want to accept our money when he gave us a pineapple, knowing that we are travellers.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
