Nestled in the green hills near Puerto Plata, Monkeyland is a natural sanctuary where dozens of squirrel monkeys live and roam freely across five acres of tropical habitat. Your visit begins with a short briefing from the sanctuary's guides, who care for the monkeys every day. They will explain how the animals are fed, monitored and protected, and the simple rules that keep them safe and relaxed, then walk with you into the habitat. From the designated visitor areas, watch the monkeys leap between branches, play, groom each other and come down to their feeding stations under the staff's supervision — a calm, fascinating look at these intelligent animals living as they should: free, active and well cared for in a natural environment. The sanctuary is also surrounded by lush botanical gardens, making the visit a relaxing nature break for families, couples and animal lovers of all ages. Pickup is included from hotels in Puerto Plata, Playa Dorada, Costa Dorada, Cofresí and Maimón, and from the Amber Cove and Taino Bay cruise ports. Schedules are flexible: we confirm your exact pickup time personally after booking, based on your ship's arrival or your hotel plans.
