We had an unforgettable four weeks at the project. We worked 5-6 hours a day with the monkeys and other animals that roam freely in the jungle all day, which is truly unique. Being able to accompany them on their journey to a free life is an incredible experience. Fred and the entire team are extremely dedicated. Living with 15-25 other volunteers super smoothly. In the evenings, the volunteers cook for the whole group, and at lunchtime, Teresa from the community prepares the meal. We enjoyed living without electricity and internet. We would 100% recommend the project.

Amazing experience, still there taking care of the monkeys . Everybody is working together towards the objective of giving the monkey a really great monkey life . Do not choose this volunteering if you need an animal pic, do it if you really want to help them , care for them and see them free and happy in a high tree one day . This volunteering is very rewarding but also not easy . A lot of humidity, heat and mosquitoes. Be sure to be fit before coming so you have a nice stay . Would recommend 200%

This experience is unique, you learn all about taking care of the animals in the middle of the jungle! It is a very life changing experience, but there are some safety issues. First of all, don't expect scientific work, the host is self-educated on how to care for the animals. One concerning point is safety and hygiene. Most of us ended up really sick with parasites and salmonella, as well as others before us. The suggestions we gave for more hand sanitizer or avoid soap bars that sit in their dirt, and to test the filtered water we drink were not listened to at all. Good luck.
