A Cheeky Monkey Experience in Essex for Four! Get to know the lovable Tamarin monkeys at this indoor petting zoo near Waltham Abbey through immersive experiences. Anyone aged two years or older can meet these gorgeous Tamarins. These tiny primates are native to central South America and are both playful and inquisitive. They are also highly intelligent and excel at problem-solving! During your monkey experience, a ranger host will share fascinating information about the Tamarins and how their natural habitat has been recreated in Essex. The team’s deep love and respect for all creatures is evident in the care they provide for their residents, making the Tamarin monkeys a delight to observe. You will have the opportunity to get up close and interact with the monkeys under the guidance of your ranger. You can also assist with feeding them, which is always great fun! Your time with the ranger and the Tamarin monkey tribe will last around 20-30 minutes. After the interaction, feel free to explore the mini zoo, which is home to reptiles, amphibians, small mammals, fish, and birds. This is a private experience designed for two people to ensure the well-being of the Tamarins, making it an ideal outing for families to enjoy together.
