A great, amazing once-in-a-lifetime experience. Heidi and her husband take very good care of the animals. You can tell that they really care for them and love them a lot. Not just the monkeys but also the cats on dogs on the property. Very nice. And very much of a family feel. Just some tips: Make sure that you tie... more

Just came back from Cancun. Heidi treated us as if we were neighbors while visiting her Jungle place. Being able to interact with the spyder monkeys for an hour or better was amazing for my family of 5. The cost was only $30 and well well worth every penny. Heidi and Joel take pictures for you(with your camera) at no... more

The Jungle Place was definitely one of the highlights of our trip. It was a lot of fun being able to interact with the monkeys and it was flattering to get so much attention from the females!

We went to the Jungle Place in April and it was an amazing experience. Joel and Heidi are such dedicated people and are very protective of their monkeys. We spent a long time in the cage, interacting with about 6 monkeys. My family was all smiles and Joel took over 100 pictures for us. Heidi also noticed that my son... more

Don't be discouraged by their lack-luster web site. The care takers are good about responding to their e-mail. The incredible thing is that we were able to climb in the main area and sit with the monkey for almost an hour! The care takers are very kind and educate as the visit progresses. The monkeys all have indivdual personalities and... more
