Eddy and Reyes were our tour guides, and they were absolutely amazing! They made the entire experience that much better with their kind, funny, and welcoming personalities. They were incredibly polite, informative, and made us feel comfortable from the very beginning. The plantation itself is gorgeous, and getting to see the monkeys in their natural environment was simply perfect. This tour far exceeded our expectations, and we could not have been happier! We honestly figured we’d get maybe 15–20 minutes with the monkeys, but we were with them for nearly an hour! We got to feed them multiple times, interact with them, and came away with some absolutely amazing pictures and memories. For everything you’re able to see and do, the price is extremely reasonable. This was easily one of the highlights of our trip, and we would absolutely recommend it. If you’re lucky enough to get Eddy and Reyes as your guides, you’re in for an extra special experience! 🐒🌴❤️
We had a fantastic adventure learning about coffee, cacao, and spending time with monkeys. Our tour guide Eddy and our driver Reyes were amazing. They explained the local area, and history and answered every question our group had. They were both extremely friendly and genuinely cared about everyone in their charge. They made sure the experience was amazing for everyone. We were given plenty of time to all the time to engage with the planned activities and never felt rushed. We are already planning our next trip and will be booking the tour again as it was so much fun.
It was so much fun and the monkeys were sooooo cute. I was amazed at how fast they pulled the sunflower seed out the shell and left the shell behind! When they land on you they are so light they only weigh 2 pounds . I will definitely do this again but with the 4 species for the education on them .
This was a great experience. The monkeys were adorable. Our tour guide was funny and entertaining. We were able to see the restaurants and neighborhoods during the ride to Monkeyland. They make sure they explain the rules to you for your protection and the monkeys. Great place and you can tell they love the monkeys.
Sammy and Nelson awesome tour guides! We have an 8yr old and monkey island was the highlight of our trip. So worth it, fun experience
Eddy is the best I enjoyed his knowledge of the country and its history more then the actual monkeys he’s a very nice and knowledgeable man also Colporang is a great safe driver. Monkeyland is a great trip to book and Eddy’s guide around the plantations was excellent! It’s a really great, sustainable tour with 100% organic and 100% local, on site produce (coffee, cocoa butter and other products, coconut based products), where the profit goes directly back to the plantation workers. A MUST SEE! Definitely request Eddy as your guide!
Eddy and Colporang were the BEST tour guides! You can really feel the passion they have for their jobs and they really made us feel like family the whole trip. Eddy’s knowledge was second to none and after having our island tour trip cancelled (earlier in the week by a different company), this more than made up for it! The local produce from the plantations is also amazing and I definitely would urge anyone to buy from there as the quality is amazing, and it’s also great to give back and support the plantation workers.The staff at Monkeyland were amazing too and you can really tell they love and care for the monkeys well.
Eddie was so informative and funny! Definitely enjoyed our tour.
The monkeys were the highlight of our entire week. Tour guide was amazing. I just wish the cocoa/coffee/coconut oil part was a lot shorter. My young kids didn’t love that part and is a long day.
Ruddy and moises the BEST OF THE BEST awesome as always have done this tour plenty of times but RUDDY & MOISES ARE FAR THE BEST !!!
