Just returned from this amazing place. About 1hr ride from Nusa Dua into the hills of Ubud. Entry fee in Nov was 15,000R which is worth every cent (so to speak). The monkeys are running free, not a cage to be seen, and thats the way tit should be. Feed, chat, photograph the families, babies at will. You can purchase... more

My wife and I stayed in Ubud at the end of our holiday for a few days rest and took in the Monkey Forest in the morning. Some friendly tips I can offer: 1. Don't buy any blackened banana's the monkeys don't like them (they are off) and will be left on ground. 2. Do buy or bring grapes, you... more

After reading other reviews before I went, I was very skeptical. We visited in September (2009) and arrived at about 10:00am. It was quiet and there weren't many people around. It was 15,000 Indonesian Rupiah's to get in (about £1) and we bought a bunch of bananas for 20,000. When we entered there weren't many monkeys by the entrance, then... more

There must be over a hundred monkeys living in the forest and they bring lots of entertainment. Lots of baby monkeys, very cute. Costs 15,000 rupiah (about US$1.50) to enter. Don’t buy bananas at the entrance or bring any food unless you want the monkeys to climb on you and even possibly attack you. Don’t tease the monkeys. Don’t touch... more

Monkies can be seen in various places in Bali like Ulu Watu, so it's not really worth it to go out of your way to visit this place IMO. If you are set on going, remember a few things: 1) these monkies are nasty little creatures. they have absolutely no fear of humans and will grab/steal anything they can get... more

We visited the Monkey Forest (which was right across the field from our hotel - Tegal Sari) and fed the monkeys there. They were loads of fun to watch, and my friend ended up with multiple monkeys on his shoulder more than once. Since we went in the afternoon, the big groups had already been through and the monkeys really... more

After reading some of the previous reviews we expected the monkeys to be more hostile than they were. The key is to simply not bring a bit of food, even a cracker, and do not buy the bananas vendors sell outside if you don't want the monkeys to interact with you. Interaction at times can be pushy, they will jump... more

Read Local Maui Hawaii's rules. I wish I had. A monkey reached in my bag and stole my hand sanitizer. I was worried because it's 60% alcohol. When I grabbed the container he bit me in my arm. Another monkey tried to take my friend's braclet. When she wouldn't give it to her he bit her ear. We even had... more

Ok, first off, don't buy bananas unless you're ready to be completely covered in Monkeys. We didn't buy any and still I had 4 different monkeys jump on me, and my wife had one swinging from her hair (I got video!) But don't be completely freaked out. You just have to follow a few rules: 1. Don't bring anything! A... more
