When
I
tell
you
that
this
stop
was
the
highlight
of
my
day
trip
to
Miami!!
I
am
so
glad
that
I
stumbled
upon
it
while
searching
for
things
to
do
in
the
city.
I
called
the
Monkey
Jungle
on
Wednesday
morning
01/5/2022
during
our
drive
from
Palm
Beach
to
Miami.
I
was
advised
that
we
could
sign
up
for
the
2:30
pm
tour
and
that
we
needed
to
arrive
by
2:15pm
to
complete
paper
work
and
pay
the
fee.
We
arrived
around
1:30pm.
We
were
greeted
by
Steve
(The
director).
He
was
very
personable
and
chatted
with
us
about
the
business.
He
also
asked
a
staff
to
escort
us
to
the
restroom
that
was
located
on
the
property.
He
suggested
that
we
go
grab
a
bite
to
eat
and
return
around
2:15pm.
Upon
our
return
we
were
the
only
patrons.
We
paid
the
entry
fee
that
totals
$160.50
with
taxes
and
signed
a
waiver
form.
Another
group
of
2
arrived
shortly
after.
The
tour
commenced
about
10
minutes
after
the
noted
start
time
of
2:30pm.
Our
guide
was
Will
and
he
was
AWESOME!!
He
was
knowledgeable,
personable
and
just
had
a
great
energy!!
Most
importantly
he
had
a
great
sense
of
humor.
He
is
the
kind
of
person
you
wished
was
your
friend!!
Will
advised
us
that
his
goal
was
for
us
to
have
a
great
time
and
his
only
ask
from
us
was
to
be
safe
and
to
keep
the
animals
safe.
To
keep
the
monkeys
safe
we
had
to
ensure
that
we
wear
our
mask
properly
for
the
duration
of
our
time
at
the
Monkey
Jungle.
Will
provided
great
information
about
the
various
types
of
monkeys
on
site
as
well
as
history
on
how
the
company
was
started.
Following
the
informational
session
of
the
tour
we
were
provided
an
opportunity
to
feed
the
monkeys.
This
first
encounter
was
us
placing
food
(dried
fruit)
in
a
dish
and
watching
the
monkeys
use
a
chain
to
pull
the
food
to
themselves.
This
activity
shows
the
intellect
of
the
monkeys.
It
was
interesting
to
see
how
the
monkeys
that
have
a
higher
rank
skipped
over
the
raisins!
Will
said
they
basically
think
raisins
are
for
the
lower
ranking
monkeys!!
The
main
event
is
going
into
the
rainforest.
This
is
where
the
squirrel
monkeys
reside
and
where
we
interact
with
them
face
to
face.
Will
showed
us
the
best
way
to
get
the
monkeys
to
come
to
us.
His
visual
example
was
on
point.
Once
we
were
given
a
tray
and
food
was
placed
on
it
the
monkeys
were
ready
to
eat!!!
We
had
so
much
fun
feeding
the
monkeys
and
taking
some
cute
pictures
and
videos.
This
experience
is
pricey,
however,
I
think
it
is
well
worth
the
cost
for
special
occasions.
It
is
clear
that
the
employees
love
what
they
do.
The
great
customer
service
and
entertainment
of
the
monkeys
makes
it
all
worthwhile!!
My
only
wish
is
that
it
lasts
a
little
longer!!
