Akumal Monkey Sanctuary & Rescued Animals

The highlight of the tour was being able to feed the monkeys and interact with them. They were very gentle and curious. You were able to hold two macaws which gave great picture opportunities. Edwin was our tour guide and gave a great two hour tour. It is very easy to book by giving them a call or online thru the internet. Tours are at 9;1; and 3. This is a great group who rescues monkeys who have been discarded by owners.

Our visit to the Akumal Monkey Sanctuary was AMAZING! The staff is knowledgeable and made the tour interesting. The actual interaction with lemurs and primates was a once in a lifetime experience!!

This sanctuary is staffed with well trained professionals who truly are connected with the animals they care for. Very informative and lots of fun. These folks help animals who, improperly kept as pets, were given up by owners ignorant of the needs of these precious creatures. The supervised interactions with deer, goats, birds, lemurs, and monkeys were so much fun. We are glad we went. Well done and well worth the cost. Caring for the animals, no doubt, is expensive.

Feeding the monkeys was the highlight of our whole vacation. We had so much fun with them. My husband and I along with our 22 year old and 11 year old sadisfied our lifelong dreams of feeding the monekys. We loved every minute. We bought the photos which were professionally taken on site. Both photographers we had were nothing short of amazing. The guides are knowledgeable, friendly and kind. It's worth every penny. The macaws are so cool, as well as the huge snake. You can have pictures with each of them. Great trip for all ages. 5 stars. I would even do it again next trip. It's our first trip to Mexico, but we are hooked now! Love it.
