Monkeyland

A gibbon sitting on a wooden fence in Monkeyland, Plettenberg Bay, South Africa.

This very popular attraction helps rehabilitate wild monkeys that have been in zoos or private homes. The walking safari through a dense forest and across a 128m-long rope bridge is superb. A combo ticket with Birds of Eden costs R320/160 per adult/child.
