I participated in this tour a year ago and I’m still gushing over it. The pick up and transportation was smooth. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and answered any questions we had. The traditional Dominican home walk through to the cocoa and coffee part of the tour was very beautiful and picturesque. There were plenty of places for photo ops. The rain didn’t put a damper on the monkeys and their encounters. They were out and in full effect. They’re gentle, cute and fuzzy. They’ll come to you if you’re still enough and the photographer is amazing with getting them to come to you. My only advice is to be careful where you step because they do bounce around on the ground around your feet in hopes that they can catch food you drop.
Coffee, chocolate and monkeys

What an experience (in a good way). The day does start with hotel pick ups, then you travel through the countryside to the mountains. Viewing villages on the way - our driver Brian was brilliant - navigating a big coach through some sharp turns and steep hills (always very safely). Angel was out tour guide - what a guy! Sense of humour, very personable, professional and exceptionally knowledgable about the country he loves - the Dominican Republic! When you get to the activity site, you have a very steep incline up to a local farmers house, then through to an area where you see coconut being processed and you get to put some coconut oil on (really stops the mozzies). You see coffee beans, how they process them by hand and you get to try! You see cocoa (chocolate) before (try it, it’s like mango), during (try it again mixed with unrefined sugar) and then try it as a drink. There is a shop, there really is no hard sell! But there stuff is amazing! You then head downhill to the monkeys. Wow! As a small group you go into where they live and then you feed them. There are important instructions before to keep you safe. They are literally jumping all over you, it’s a really surreal experience. Great to see them so happy and healthy. If you’ve got kids and they are scared the staff are brilliant with them. And the monkeys are so gentle. It’s great to support the work they do at Runners by booking this trip - it’s a half day and well worth it. You get about 40 mins with the monkeys and it is plenty of time. Thank you for such a great experience
Such a good experience ....
