Amazing monkey forest in the middle of ubud! Entrance fee is 80k-100k for international tourists (depending on the season) but it’s well worth the fee! We went around 4:30 pm and it was the perfect time because they feed the monkeys around 5-5:30, so we got to see tons of them! |

Visiting the Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary wasn't a first for me, but it was just as enchanting as ever. The lush beauty of the forest is unparalleled, making it a must-see attraction in the Ubud area. However, caution is advised when interacting with the monkeys; they're curious creatures and might snatch anything they find intriguing. Typically, a leisurely stroll through the sanctuary takes between two to three hours, offering ample time to soak in its natural splendor. Despite the mischievous monkeys, the experience is truly worth it for any visitors to Ubud. |

Es un parque muy extenso, en nuestro caso fue de lo mejor que visitamos en Ubud, seguimos las instrucciones, fuimos respetuosos y cautelosos, tomamos fotos desde lejos, pasamos con respeto al lado de varios, ninguno tuvo un gesto de agresividad, tampoco son amigables, hay que entender su naturaleza, que es su espacio y uno como visitante debe ser cauteloso y ante todo respetuoso.<br><br>No fuimos testigos de ningún percance con humanos, se pelean entre ellos como frecuentementelo hacemos entre humanos. Es interesante ver como conviven, como interactuan.<br><br>Los monos que estan marcados supongo que es la manera de controlar la población de ellos.<br><br>El lugar es interesante.<br><br>Importante, en general en Ubid Bali, el control de basuras, sobre todo en el rio, lleno de telas, plásticos, y toda clase de desechos. Es una pena porque es un lugar digno de cuidarse. |

Tappa obbligatoria a Ubud. Circa un migliaio di scimmie. Bisogna fare attenzione agli effetti personali. Pagando 3€ a testa si può fare la foto con loro tramite un addetto che dà da mangiare mais alle scimmie |

Fun fun place! Easy to get to with plenty of great parking options, entrance fee is reasonable. Listen to the directions they have posted and you will have a great experience! Whole park takes around 1-1.5 hrs to explore! Worth it if you have the time! |

The picture with the monkey was the highlight, though the weather was really hot and it kinda made it difficult to walk around. Monkeys can be spotted in the central area of park more. The picture with monkey is taken from your phone and its not taken on wednesdays and sundays, glad that we went on a sunday. Dont look monkey in the eye while clicking the picture they will attack you, the monkey did kinda attack the girl ahead of me as she looked into his eyes. Also if you are into folk dance and performances they have a show at 4pm on saturdays, we went early so couldnt see it. Overall its a decent place can be visited once |

Ubud Monkey Forest in Bali is an awesome place where you can hang out with hundreds of cool monkeys! It's open every day from 9 AM to 6 PM, but make sure you get your tickets by 5 PM. Adults ticket is 80k on weekdays and 100k on weekends, and it's cheaper for kids.<br><br>This place is not just about monkeys; it's got these old Hindu temples surrounded by amazing greenery. But yes, the monkeys are the main stars – they're super playful and might even snatch your sunglasses! So, keep your stuff safe and try not to feed them, as it can make them a bit too excited.<br><br>If you're planning to visit the temple areas, wearing a sarong and scarf is a good idea. |

Ce parc vaut le détours. Les singes sont traités comme des rois, ils ne sont pas agressifs comme ceux que l'on peut rencontrer sur les plages. Ils volent moins, mais fermez quand même bien vos sacs, s'ils vous sautent sur le dos pour les ouvrir. De plus, le parc est bien ombragé, ce qui fait que l'on se promène à l'ombre et c'est super agréable. |

Need to purchase ticket before enter. Make sure you go to correct path to enter as we accidently enter one road with a lot of motorbike. Plenty seat for you to rest if any of your member not interest to walk in the forest. Monkey in this forest is more soft than the other outside the area. However, don't try to hang on plastic of fruits on hand. Monkey will come shortly. You can see monkey relax in this area , while the path is quite walkable. And, there is one small cake shop in this area too. Estimate spend around 1-2 hours will do. |

Initially thought it was just jus some small park with some monkey business. Not a place where i felt to put in my itinerary. Was riding the scooter around ubud and pass by this chill n cooling sanctuary like park. Best time to giv it a go is during the hot sunny noon to late noon time as the park itself hav a lot of cooling shades to avoid the scorching sun n heat. Well managed parking with managed parking space n securities which comes with a small parking fee if you traveled here via rental scooters or cars.<br>The park is well managed n maintain with some of the cleanest toilets(ticketing lobby) i had in ubud. Staffs are all friendly n well trained to serve. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit n was rather amazed with some of the rather timid monkey who was mostly minding their own business n treat all the people as part of their lives. The park is rather big n also a easy 1km round walk with decent pavement, but not exactly the best for those who are have strollers and it doesn’t have some stairs n bumpy cobblestone. Ended the walk in the park and continue on to the nearby ubud market till eve wher you can find a nice spot for dinner with sunset view |

The Monkey Forest was a fantastic experience in nature just outside Ubud and very affordable. You'll see thousands of monkeys living in this reserve, watching them swing from trees and interact in their natural habitat. I particularly enjoyed the informative signs detailing the history of the tribes and the forest. It's a great spot for a peaceful walk, with paths that bring you close to the animals. Just be careful, these cheeky monkeys love to steal, so keep your bags secure! |

Monkey Forest is the perfect attraction for all ages and a respite from the heat. You can spend a long time watching the monkeys play with each other. The park itself is beautiful. There are amazingly detailed statues everywhere. The monkeys are great just follow the rules. Don't make eye contact and carry your belongings tight. There are many ancient banyan trees. You may only need a couple hours at most to see everything. Definitely a place to see if you're in Ubud. |

Jolie forêt mais trop de monde ce qui perturbe très certainement les singes dans leur environnement. Les singes se baladent avec les détritus des touristes dans la bouche, possibilité de prendre des photos avec eux... Je ne recommande pas à tout ceux qui veille au bien-être animal. Des singes on peut en voir ailleurs à Bali dans la nature ! |

My partner and I visited the monkey forest whilst visiting Ubud.<br><br>We paid 80k on the door which is standard for a weekday visit. 100k on the weekends. You could easily spend all day here interacting with the thousands of monkeys living within this sanctuary. As well as monkeys you can also see some temples and wonderful nature.<br><br>The monkeys are very cheeky, they will climb all over you if you get close and they will pinch anything loose on your person! So carry light and make sure you don’t have any high value items on you!<br><br>Wonderful day and I’d happily visit again and recommend this to anyone. |

圣猴森林公园真是一个令人难以忘怀的地方！这里的猴子不仅友好可爱，而且聪明伶俐，总是能引起游客们的阵阵欢笑。它们活泼地在树林间跳跃，不时地向游客们展示它们的智慧和机智。<br><br>然而，唯一有些遗憾的是门票价格略高。但当你看到这些可爱的猴子们，在自然环境中自由自在地生活时，便会觉得这张门票是值得的。毕竟，能够近距离地接触这些猴子，感受它们的热情和活力，是一种难得的体验。所以，如果你有机会来到圣猴森林公园，一定不要错过与这些可爱的小猴子们亲密接触的机会哦！ |

Good place for a walk in the park/forrest and to observe monkeys. Probably, depending on the time of the day they are more or less active.<br>Please observe all the park rules about feeding animals and avoiding contact. The monkeys are easily attracted to the content of your bag! |

Visita obligada si estás en Ubud. Es un sitio único. Un parque enorme lleno de vegetación preciosa y con monos por todas partes en libertad. Desconozco si es su hábitat real, pero en este parque viven con la máxima libertad posible. Está totalmente lleno de monos por todas partes. Hay zonas estrechas que hay tantos monos que incluso dificulta el paso. Si pasas de ellos no hacen nada, aunque hay alguno que puede intimidar bastante si pasas cerca de él. Tienes que prestar atención a bolsos y demás cosas que lleves encima. La entrada son 80 K. Merece la pena 100% |

Eine schön gestaltete Umgebung, es gibt einige Futterstellen für die Affen wo sich auch häufiger welche aufhalten. Sonst ist es generell aber auch so, dass einem einig Augen über den Weg laufen. Sie sind in der Regel recht friedlich, man sollte sich einfach ruhig und zurück haltend verhalten. Es laufen aber auch genügend Mitarbeiter rum. Auf dem Gelände ist Rauchen verboten, leider halten sich nur die Mitarbeiter nicht daran. |

We had such a great time exploring the Sacred Monkey Forest in Ubud. Even with the rain, the entire place felt magical. The walk through the lush green forest and winding wooden paths was peaceful and beautiful. It was amazing to be surrounded by nature and see the monkeys so up close. They were playful but surprisingly calm, just going about their day. |

Beautiful sanctuary and I hope you like monkeys 😂😂.<br><br>The park itself is a marvel with tons of gorgeous sculptures that shares stories of Balinese and Indonesian culture. There are two temples in this park but most of the people can not enter as it’s only for ceremony and prayers of its own religion.<br><br>Monkeys are adorable at first, but my mistake of carrying a tote bag (not recommend) although there’s no food or drink in them. I got group attack two times and once you are ganged up by a group of monkeys it’s hard to get away. Both time park security came to rescue.<br><br>Entrance fee is 80k which is approx $5.50 USD.<br><br>I recommend visiting if you are in the area. |

Nous étions venus il y a 12 ans et cette forêt des singes a beaucoup évolué pour devenir un très gros passage touristique. Nous étions assez déçus sur la grosse 1ere partie de notre parcours car très peu de singes vus, mais nous en avons retrouvé énormément dans le fond du parcours. Il faut bien bien lire les consignes écrites clairement sur plusieurs panneaux dans le parc pour éviter tout souci avec les singes. Ils sont gentils mais se défendent s’ils se sentent agressés, et sont joueurs donc attention à vos sacs et poches, casquettes et lunettes. Bonne balade ! |

A must-visit place in Ubud! The Sacred Monkey Forest is not only a fun spot to see monkeys up close, but it’s also a peaceful nature escape filled with beautiful trees, ancient temples, and winding stone paths. It’s well-maintained and organized, with clear paths and signs. I really enjoyed walking among the trees and watching the monkeys interact freely. Just make sure to secure your belongings — the monkeys are curious! Definitely worth a visit for both nature lovers and photography fans. |

Nice place to experience living amongst monkeys. They are relatively calm and I didn’t see them being aggressive. Only sometimes trying to dig something into your open bag. The place is also mostly shaded so you can go through the forest without hat or sunglasses. If you are lucky you can take some pictures next to the monkeys. It’s quite funny watching them playing and picking out fleas. |

A must-visit spot in Ubud—especially with kids!<br>We explored the Monkey Forest with our little ones, and our 5-year-old was beyond excited. The forest is beautifully maintained, with monkeys roaming freely in their natural habitat—both entertaining and educational. It does get a bit crowded, so plan your visit accordingly (mornings are usually better). Do follow the posted guidelines and stay cautious, especially with kids, as the monkeys are curious and active. We walked the full trail and found it to be a great mix of serene nature and playful wildlife. You can get the tickets at the entrance.<br>A fun, memorable experience for the whole family. |

Would not do this again. The monkey forest is not a sanctuary. It is a tourist trap designed for people to indulge in exploitative photo opportunities with monkeys.<br><br>These beautiful animals deserve better. We saw a Chinese tourist exiting one of the First Aid centres on his way to hospital after being bitten as well as two young girls foolishly holding a water bottle being chased by a monkey. Signs clearly state no water bottles. They also state "no feeding monkeys", yet the staff use food to get monkeys to sit and climb on tourists for pictures. This has conditioned the monkeys to climb on people.<br><br>We kept our distance. All of my pictures were taken with a zoom lens and we kept moving, Staying still had you surrounded by monkeys who do not understand the difference between someone sitting down to rest and someone paying to have a picture taken by using food as an incentive.<br><br>Beautiful Forest but not entirely comfortable with monkeys being used as props. I love monkeys but they are wild and deserve respect 🐒 I felt very sad for these monkeys and at times nervous for my safety 🐒 🙈<br><br>Edit update: the responses to poor reviews by the owner are a clear picture of what you get when you visit. |

Monkey Forest in Ubud is well worth a visit if you are in the main tourist area. The grounds are beautiful and well kept, making it a pleasant and scenic walk. As expected, there are a lot of monkeys, but they are not hostile towards tourists, which makes for a relaxed experience.<br><br>The entry fee is fairly low cost; for our family of five, it was just under AU$50. There are also a few cafes nearby, perfect for a drink or a snack before or after your visit. Overall, it is an enjoyable outing that offers a mix of nature and local wildlife at a reasonable price. |

It’s nice to see the monkeys which are absolutely used to the mass of people going through the park every day.<br>Contrary to what we’ve heard before the monkeys were pretty nonchalant and didn’t approach us. No interactions or attempts to steal our stuff.<br>I would almost say it’s one of the places you went to to say ‘I’ve visited it’. But it’s still worth a visit especially if you haven’t seen monkeys in their natural habitat before.<br>The trees are quite impressive and the park rangers take good care of the animals. |

What a cool place to visit and explore. A mix of monkeys and Hindu "temple culture" made for a couple hours of interesting exploring. The monkeys delight with their personalities and playful antics and set in the jungle it's the perfect mix of being a controlled environment with just a little feel of the wild. Keep your belongings close! |

Review: Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary, Ubud, Bali<br><br>Nestled in the heart of Ubud, the Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary is one of Bali’s most unique and memorable experiences. A lush jungle filled with ancient temples, winding paths, and hundreds of long-tailed macaques, this sanctuary is as enchanting as it is wild.<br><br>Atmosphere & Setting: ★★★★★<br><br>The forest feels like stepping into a different world—serene yet vibrant, spiritual yet untamed. Towering trees with hanging vines, moss-covered statues, and the soft sounds of the jungle create a truly magical atmosphere. It’s both a cultural site and a natural haven.<br><br>The Monkeys: ★★★★☆<br><br>The macaques are undeniably the stars of the show. Observing them up close is fascinating—they’re intelligent, curious, and often playful. However, visitors should take caution: these monkeys are wild and can be cheeky. Avoid bringing food, flashy accessories, or anything loosely attached—they may try to grab it!<br><br>Cultural Significance: ★★★★★<br><br>The sanctuary isn’t just about monkeys. It’s a deeply spiritual place for the Balinese, housing three sacred temples from the 14th century. The blend of nature and culture adds a profound dimension to the visit.<br><br>Tips for Visitors:<br><br>Don’t bring plastic bags, food, or water bottles—they attract monkey attention.<br>Keep your belongings secured.<br>Respect the monkeys and the sacred nature of the site.<br>Visit early in the morning for fewer crowds and cooler temperatures.<br><br>Final Verdict: 4.5/5 ⭐<br><br>Whether you’re a nature lover, a culture enthusiast, or simply looking for an unforgettable experience in Bali, the Monkey Forest delivers. It’s beautiful, wild, and deeply rooted in Balinese tradition. Just come prepared and mindful of your surroundings—and you’ll leave with incredible memories. |

Having read a lot of other reviews I was a bit nervous about visiting here, especially with kids, but needn’t have worried. The monkeys are not bothered by people at all, except perhaps those who try to get too close or touch them. They are extremely well fed and had no interest in our bags or belongings. The signs do advise not bringing in plastic or paper bags or trying to feed the monkeys and do not look them in the eye as this is a sign of aggression. If you follow these simple rules, I think you will not have any problems. You can pay an extra 50k for an opportunity to have a photo with a monkey on your lap. Other than that the entrance fee was reasonable. Very busy and a huge tourist destination, so I recommend getting there early. You can also feed the koi carp at the entrance for 10k. Lots of interesting stone carvings are dotted throughout the forest as well as a temple. |

Great experience! The monkeys are used to humans and as long as you obey the rules of the forest they generally ignore you and go about their day. You get to walk around and watch them go about their days and interact with one another in a beautiful setting.<br>Wear half decent footwear (doesn't need to be walking boots, normal trainers are fine, just not flip flops or similar) as the steps and slopes on the paths can be steep. |
