Calling all Monkey Lovers!! - We had such a great time! Tour guide was very nice and knowledgeable. We were running a little late and they waited for us! We drove to the location, the drive was not bad. Monkeys were so comfortable and friendly! They jumped on our shoulders and ate out of our hands. It was such a great experience. After we saw crocodiles off the bridge and ate an authentic Costa Rica meal. The meal was so good and filling I couldn’t eat it all. Get the peach tea! Best peach tea I ever had! Amazing trip! Definitely recommend!

Monkeys!! - This was amazing - the guides were amazing. About an hour drive but then we got to hang out with monkeys for about 30 mins. They were so cute and so chill. What an amazing day. Then we had a great lunch and stopped to see some gators on the bridge! Highly recommend!

Excellent experience!! Authentic! - This was an exciting, fabulous, authentic hands-on experience that took place at a families home that backs-up to the jungle. They had made friends with a family of wild monkeys by feeding them and now they come down from the trees and allow you to feed them. Watch out, one person in our group was peed on. They are wild animals! I absolutely loved it!! And the lunch was one of the best I have had my entire stay in.Costa Rica. I definitely would recommend.

Amazing! - It was such a cool experience! Josue was a wealth of information! The monkeys were incredible and so fun to feed! We had the best authentic lunch and Josue even stopped at a very nice souvenir shop so we could buy some items for our family back home. Highly recommend this excursion!

Juanito the monkey king - This was a wild experience, not like anything you'd experience in the United States. It was sketchy, questionable at times, would totally do it again 😁

fun little monkeys, excursion a little bit longer than 3 hours - Carlos, our driver, was great and spoke great English. The description is a bit misleading - it said '3 hours' but at 1.5 hours, we were still a few minutes away from arriving. But the monkeys were great, and the included meal on the way back was simple but fantastic. It was a typical Costa Rican casado lunch and Carlos phoned in our choice of protein so that the meal was ready within a few minutes of our arrival. We did hit holiday and weekend traffic on the way back, which added to the overall length of our excursion (overall time from pickup was ~5 1/2 hours instead of 3), but that's what you get when you choose a popular destination like Costa Rica for a vacation.

Wonderful Monkey Experience ! - This was one of my favorite parts about our trip to Costa Rica! The monkeys were so sweet and gentle, came up to you and would sit on you while chomping on their snacks. The lunch spot was great and the guides were very friendly and enlightening throughout the tour. If you’re looking for a truly interactive experience, this is the one to book!
