"Very unique setting in which to see these monkeys.

On my trek they were not out in the open where apparently, they usually are. They were deeper in the thick of the bamboo forest which made for difficult photos, but very interesting viewing.

Gorgeous primates and quite relaxed–but always moving." Read more about this whole safari

"This was a delightful trip to do, although having experienced the Gorillas the day before in a group of 8, we were a little unlucky to be in a much larger group for the Golden Monkeys - 16 or more.

The Golden Monkeys themselves were active as a group and wonderful too watch in a sceninc bamboo grove, which is only a short hike.

Perhaps because of the size of our group, there was less interaction from our guide - although we were able to spend a good hour observing the Monkeys close up." Read more about this whole safari

"This is a short hike through the farmland and is well worth the trip. The trek was timed. So that many monkeys were in the potato fields gathering food. There was approximately 30 all sizes running around us. Very cool." Read more about this whole safari

"This experience was a great warm up to the Gorilla trekking we had booked for the next day. The trek was not intense although we still engaged a Porter at the beginning of the trek to support the community - as advised to do by both Expert Africa and our guide, Aimable.

You are given ample time to experience the abundance of Golden Monkeys in their natural habitat, whether sitting and playing in the trees or scavenging for potatoes in nearby fields.

We were not advised that we needed to wear a protective facemask prior to heading out on this trek and missed out on around 7 minutes of viewing the Golden Monkeys waiting for someone to bring us a mask.

We highly recommend that one experiences this before the Gorillas as sadly it would be an anti-climax to see these creatures after..." Read more about this whole safari
