So much fun seeing the monkeys - This was such a fun experience. We only went out for an hour but the monkeys come to get fed when the boats stop next to the island. Be sure to bring some food with you (ideally fruit as a lot of people bring bread which probably isn’t very good for them). They will jump on the boats, take food and drink from your water bottle. We then stopped and got out of the boat for a walk along the shallow part of the lake. Quite a few birds to see too. Our boatman and guide, Jude, was lovely. Well worth the trip!

A great family trip. - We had a great boat trip with water picnic and visiting Monkey Island. It was still impressive to discover boat wrecks after 20 years after the tsunami. Monkey Island was exciting and we were very close to the monkeys.
