Monkeyland

Had a great time seeing the monkeys freely roam around, as they do in the wild. Enrico was a great host and provided us with a lot of information! Thank you for all the work you do for these lovely creatures ❤️

A very well guided experience of the monkey sanctuary. Interesting to find out that the monkeys own the land that they roam around in. The whole setup and experience is nice and you get to come close to a lot of the monkeys during the tour. The tour is guided so you’re not free to roam around and last about and hour. Would recommend as an alternative activity if you’re in the area. Overall would recommend.

It‘s not a „zoo“. This is you as the guest in THEIR habitat. They decide on their own if they would be visible or not. Magic places and really nice monkeys… shy ones, discreet ones… and gangsters. Perfect also for children. Will be a guided tour to protect guests- AND monkeys. ;-)

Informative and interesting visit to Monkeyland. We saw Gibbons, Langurs, Lemurs, Capuchin Monkey, Howler Monkey, Spider Monkey, Vervet Monkey. The animals have healthy food buffets setup for them around the trail. I'm not a biologist so am not sure of the implications of housing this many monkey species freeroaming in the same area that would never cross each other's paths in the wild as they live on different continents. The widowed and childless female Gibbon was very sad to see. She looked despondent. Unfortunately our guide became preoccupied with retrieving a pair of prescription glasses stolen by a monkey from a person in a previous group. He warned us he was going to throw a rock near it to get it to drop the glasses. A rock about half the size of a cricket ball was pegged at the monkey. I thought it was going to hit it. The monkey took off further up the tree. We stood several times for minutes at a time alone while he went back to try again, making the tour very disjointed. The glasses werent even for anyone in our group so we had no vested interest. The glasses were not retrieved. The pitch on arrival to buy a 1m3 patch of land in trust to the monkeys would probably be best served at the end of the tour after we have seen the park. It is hard to commit to something (even a small donation such as this) without experiencing the facility first. At the end we were taken back a different way and nowhere near the gift shop and reception area and I'm sure some people would have donated then. We much preferred our visit to Birds of Eden next door. Quite expensive for a 1 hour tour.

It’s an amazing place. I saw monkeys species I’ve never seen in my life. :) It’s definitely a must-visit. It’s right next to birds of eden, which was also wonderful. When buying tickets, you can get a combo ticket for Birds of Eden, Monkeyland, and Jukani Wildlife Sanctuary. Don’t forget that—it’s more economical. But unfortunately, we didn’t like Jukani Wildlife Sanctuary very much. There wasn’t much to see.

I loved Monkeyland! Walking in the forest with monkeys all around was amazing. The guide was great and the suspension bridge was so much fun

Wow, what an unforgettable experience! Arriving early meant it was just my husband and me on the one-hour guided tour, which made it feel so personal and special. Our guide, Elano, was absolutely fantastic - friendly, funny, and incredibly knowledgeable. He taught us so much about the monkeys and their behaviors, and we never felt rushed. The highlight was getting so close to the animals and seeing so many different species in such a beautiful setting. It's clear the monkeys are well cared for and happy. The majority are rescue monkeys which made it even more special. Highly recommend this magical experience!

The guide was experienced and we have fun walking there. A lots of monkeys!
