Description
The Howler Monkey Sanctuary known as the Community Baboon Sanctuary (CBS), it's a great place to visit if you'll like to see Howler Monkeys on their natural habit.
What makes this place special is that the Monkeys are not kept within a reserve or closed area, they are scattered around the jungle within several small villages.
Now the specifics:
Monkey Adventure 20bz/10usd, 30 to 60min
We did this one, our guide led us trough the jungle close by the Visitor Center, he told us some information about the fauna and flora around, don't be afraid of asking questions, as he is looking around and calling for the Monkeys he is not focused on other things. We walked for about 40min with no success but our guide did not give up, he took us back to a spot he thought they would be at, and there they were. He called them closer and we had the opportunity to get a great photo out of it, please keep in mind that they are wild animals and you should not get to close or touch them, your guide will let you observe them for a couple minutes and make sure you have a good shot and than ask you kindly to return.
Canoeing/Kayaking 60bz/30usd pp, 90-120min
Croc Night Adventure 110bz/55usd pp (min 2p), 120min
