Rare LVinTennessee Posted February 9, 2023 #1 Share Posted February 9, 2023 So far, no one has replied on the Caribbean/Dominican Republic board. Here is the description of the HAL excursion: Hop on an open-air safari truck and immerse yourself in the Dominican countryside. Your outing begins with a visit to the Monkey Land. In the tropical jungle, listen to the sounds of nature while keeping an eye out for the cute little squirrel monkeys that abound in this natural environment. Trained staff give you a plate of fruit that you can offer to the monkeys. These cheeky, friendly creatures love shiny objects -- hang on to your belongings or they will relieve you of loose items for later play. This is an awesome opportunity to get up close with these loveable, fun little monkeys. After searching for “monkey” on the Dominican Republic board, people have said - it’s an enclosure and monkeys climb all over you, and I swear I read a post that said it’s 2.5 hours away from port? Maybe these are reviews from other cruise lines going to a different place? Im not sure if these experiences are the same place that HAL is going??? Looking for specific details, please.

trixiee Posted February 9, 2023 #2 Share Posted February 9, 2023 It’s about a 15 minute drive. We didn’t have an open air bus, we had a regular bus with air conditioning. The monkeys are in an enclosure and they do jump all over you! it was fun… something different to do. After the monkey business, you walk over to an open air museum where you are served a sample of Dominican coffee, hot chocolate and mamajuana.
