Description

Embark on a one-of-a-kind adventure in the Dominican Republic with a guided tour of Monkeyland, where you’ll have the opportunity to interact with charming and playful squirrel monkeys and enjoy a cultural journey into the heart of the Dominican lifestyle. Begin your tour with a visit to a typical country house to mingle with Dominicans and learn how to live off the land and their organic products. There, you can try roasted coffee and cocoa. Start the second part of the tour coming to a beautiful botanical garden, where you will learn about native plants and flowers of the island. The next 45 minutes are occupied for a guided tour that allows you to interact near to beautiful and friendly squirrel monkeys at Monkeyland. These charming and intelligent monkeys have been formed by a Canadian couple with 35 years of experience working with animals, including 12 years at the Toronto Zoo to teaching monkeys to trust and enjoy the company of humans. This tour is based on 5 acres of a beautiful piece of land that monkeys have made their home. The monkeys are completely accustomed to human contact. They come down from the trees to sit on your shoulder and eat from your hands. Beware, they love all things bright and interesting! Little monkeys love to pose for the cameras and probably will sit, and if allowed, see themselves in your camera. After your time with the monkeys, visit a traditional Dominican home, allowing you to experience the daily life of the locals up close. Get ready to taste authentic, island-made products that truly capture the essence of the Dominican Republic. Your adventure doesn’t end there. Explore a lush Botanical Garden, filled with local flora.
