Monkeyland, is unique in that the sanctuary caters for several species of primate, and they are not caged; they are free to move about the forest and do so in harmony.

…go on a guided walking safari

Visitors to Monkeyland are taken on monkey safaris in our indigenous forest by experienced game rangers. On these safaris you can expect to see many species of primates ranging from the Gibbons of Asia and Howlers from South America to the Lemurs of Madagascar. All our primates live in a natural environment. At Monkeyland you are privileged to step into their world to explore and learn fascinating facts about primates first hand.

Meet our primates

…walk across our 118m suspension bridge, the longest one of it’s kind in Africa!

Part of the safari, for those who wish, includes walking across a rope bridge which spans a canyon above the forest canopy giving you a rare birds eye view of a section of the forest and its inhabitants otherwise seldom seen.

…Learn to appreciate your closest living relatives

The arrival of any new primate at Monkeyland is important, as this signifies possibly the only chance that individual primate will ever have of being free. It is difficult to believe when seeing Monkeyland’s free-roaming primates moving about the forest, enjoying their newfound freedom, that they were previously caged.

One of the true joys of our safari is finding and observing the various species in the forest, as they go about their daily routine, foraging, chatting and doing those things wild monkeys do. These lovely primates have had to delve deep into their natural instincts to reacquire the knowledge that is necessary for them to live life naturally again. Most of them have lived years in captivity prior to being rehabilitated and released by Monkeyland.

tree to tree.
