Full itinerary
We begin the tour with the visit to a typical country house to mingle with Dominicans and learn how to live off the land and their organic products. There, we have the opportunity to try new exotic Caribbean fruits, roasted coffee and cocoa. Start the second part of the tour coming to our beautiful botanical garden, where you will learn about native plants and flowers on the island.
The next 45 minutes are occupied with a guided tour that allows you to interact in close proximity with our beautiful and friendly squirrel monkeys at Monkeyland.
These charming and intelligent monkeys have been cared for by a Canadian couple with 35 years of experience working with animals, including 12 years at the Toronto Zoo to teach monkeys to trust and enjoy the company of humans.
This tour is based on five acres of beautiful 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. Adorable!
