Loved the experience
Loved the experience with the monkeys, they are so cute 🥰 And the staff at Monkey Home is just friendly. Special thanks to Yeuri Hiraldo. It was a weird adventure getting there and coming back, but that has nothing to do with Monkey Home. I can't remember their names but all the staff members at the Monkey Home were very nice and made sure we had a great time.
Response from the operator: It was a pleasure for us be for your services, thank you for leaving us your comment. We are here to serve you.

We had a great time at the Monkey home! Our kids loved the experience. Jose was our taxi driver and was so nice! We would definitely do it again!

Trip to the countryside
The taxi driver was early and pleasant. All the staff at the monkey house were knowledgeable and kind. The presentation surprisingly included discussion about local vegetation and a sample of coffee, cocoa, Mama Juana and a homemade cigar if interested. Of course the monkeys were the highlight, adorable and friendly. Gelsey and Edgar and Andy made our visit most memorable!

Perfect trip to see monkeys up close
Got to spend an hour sitting while the monkeys ran around. The crew would spread food around the people as the monkeys followed the food. It was a lot of fun. Also got to taste some locally made hot chocolate and coffee. Very good.

Cute Little Monkey’s!
Fun, nice guides and driver. We spent a lot of time at the first gift shop, which had the typical souvenirs. Then we were rushed through Umbrella Street, we didn’t have time to even get an empanada. When getting to the monkeys, the hosts were fun and the monkeys were adorable. The grouped us with a group of 17 and it was so many people there wasn’t enough room. We didn’t get to sit together as a family. They helped us get a quick family photo before we finished. Glad we did it but we wouldn’t do again.
Response from the operator: Sorry to hear this but you are in the wrong company leaving this review, because our tour don’t offer the umbrella street or first stop at shopping places in this tour, please check well

Why this scores 66
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Monkey Park Puerto Plata Countryside Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Puerto Plata.
How much does Monkey Park Puerto Plata Countryside Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $65 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Puerto Plata usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Monkey Park Puerto Plata Countryside Tour take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Puerto Plata is not rushed.
Is Monkey Park Puerto Plata Countryside Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 9 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Puerto Plata, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Monkey Park Puerto Plata Countryside Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Monkey Park Puerto Plata Countryside Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Monkey Park Puerto Plata Countryside Tour?
+
Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Puerto Plata can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Puerto Plata and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Monkey Park Puerto Plata Countryside Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Puerto Plata within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Puerto Plata?
+
On Outty we rank every Puerto Plata experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Puerto Plata Highlights City Tours from amber cove and Taino bay, Puerto Plata City Tour, Half Day City Tour in Puerto Plata. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Puerto Plata?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Puerto Plata?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What happens to Monkey Park Puerto Plata Countryside Tour if the weather is bad?
+
It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Puerto Plata. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.
What do travelers say about Monkey Park Puerto Plata Countryside Tour?
+
Across 9 reviews averaging 4.9 out of 5, recurring themes include the guide, good for families, knowledge and storytelling. Travelers single out the guide as the reason the experience works. One thing to know: Several reviewers comment on how the schedule is paced.
