Memorable Experience - Very enjoyable experience, well worth the money. Our tour operator Daniel was fantastic. We got to meet lots of squirrel monkeys up close and had several pictures of them as they climbed over us. Picture packages also available at a reasonable price but you only get digital copies via email. Makes for a great shore excursion if arriving by cruise ship.

My family's fantastic time at Monkeyland 2026!!! - My family and I had an excellent time at Monkeyland!!! Junior was our tour guide and he did a great job explaining to the group about the Dominican Republic and the history of their culture. We were very pleased. And the monkeys were great too!!! They were the best part of course. There were many of them running around and jumping and climbing all over everyone. It was a great experience and we would highly recommend it to anyone thinking about checking it out. Thanks for a great day in the Dominican Republic!!
