A unique opportunity to see lemurs, exotic monkeys and gibbons in a natural environment, living cage-free

Monkeyland-KZN is an award-winning sanctuary for rescued exotic primates (lemurs, monkeys and gibbons). Raised in captivity in zoos and as people’s pets, these amazing unwanted primates now have a safe forever home, roaming freely through a stunning 23-hectare indigenous forest.

Join us for a truly unique adventure in our “hidden forest”. You’ll first be taken on a short safari drive from our reception, past lush sugar cane fields, to our “hidden forest”. At the forest, one of our guides will take you on a walking safari through the forest in search of our free-roaming primates. Keep an eye out too for the indigenous wildlife that have made this forest their home, including bush buck, duiker, banded mongoose, vervet monkeys and a wide variety of birdlife.

Your ticket lasts the whole day so why not enjoy a handmade pizza at our licensed restaurant and then join another tour, every walk in the forest is different.
