You will be in the company of the rangers and researchers who are involved in the process of the golden monkey habituation.
The golden monkey experience allows you 3 hours of ample time with the golden monkey, where you learn more about their behaviors, feeding, mating and history in relation to the park. Meeting the shy ones is always interesting as you watch them play around, just like the little ones.
