Wonderful experience
Lovely time in the rainforest finding out about the various monkeys that live in the area, with many opportunities to spot the Red Colombus Monkey and the Blue Monkey. Learnt about the vegetation and the other animals that live in the forest. A wonderful experience with knowledgeable guides.
