A great tour to interact with monleys
This was a great excursion, and not that overcrowded. I liked the chance to go and interact with parrots and squirrel monkeys. There was a lot of interaction with the squirrel monkeys and the staff was great as far as facilitating interaction between guests and the animals.

Monkey experience was great. The handlers were very gentle and affectionate towards the monkeys and the monkeys seemed to love their handlers. Lunch was good. Our guide did a great job.

The family had a great time! Jhoan was our guide and him and his team did a fabulous job! Very personable! The monkeys were so much fun. It was a great experience for our 7-year-old. The monkeys are gentle and not intimidating for the kiddos. The food was AMAZING also!
