There's plenty of time to monkey around on this outing! Your getaway to Monkey Land is a one-of-a-kind experience. Your excursion will begin with pick-up at your Punta Cana resort. Before you meet the monkeys, you'll have a chance to get closer to the locals of the Caribbean island when you stop at a traditional country house. There, you'll meet the family that resides in the house and learn about their life and culture while sampling the region's renowned coffee and cocoa. Once you've had a chance to interact with the people of the Dominican Republic countryside, it's time to meet Monkey Land's animal residents — squirrel monkeys!
