By visiting the sanctuary, you'll not only get to see cute and fascinating primates, but also learn about the important work being done to protect and care for animals in need. You'll gain an appreciation for the challenges facing animals in the wild, and how we can all play a role in preserving their habitats and ensuring their well-being.
In addition to the monkeys, you'll also get to see a wide variety of other animals, from exotic birds to majestic snakes, each with their own unique story and importance to the ecosystem. The sanctuary is committed to educating visitors about the importance of protecting these animals, and the role that each of us can play in creating a more sustainable future.
Plus, a visit to the sanctuary is a great way to support a worthy cause. With Mexico's new animal protection laws, sanctuaries like this one are becoming even more vital for the care and rehabilitation of animals in need.
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
At Tulum Adventures, we understand that getting to the sanctuary can sometimes be a challenge, so we offer optional round-trip transfer services to make your visit as smooth as possible. To arrange a transfer, guests just need to provide their hotel or accommodation name and address — we’ll take care of the rest! Just to clarify for future visitors: the transfer fee is not included in the tour price and can be paid upon arrival at the sanctuary. The cost is $10 USD per person for round-trip service from Tulum to the Barcelo area, and $15 USD per person from Barcelo up to Puerto Morelos. This includes transportation with licensed drivers and full support from our coordination team. We hope this helps guests better plan their experience with us!
