If you’ve ever wanted to look a lemur in the eyes or feed a guinea pig from the palm of your hand, Monkey Park in Tenerife is calling your name. It’s small, charming, and surprisingly personal—an animal experience you won’t forget.
L ocated just outside Los Cristianos, Monkey Park is part zoo, part rescue centre, and part petting paradise. Visitors can stroll through enclosures where squirrel monkeys leap overhead, lemurs lounge lazily, and colourful parrots chatter away. For many, the highlight is the interactive feeding areas—buy a bag of approved fruit and veggies at the entrance, and you’ll instantly become the animals’ best friend. The park is compact enough to explore in an hour or two, making it an easy and fun half-day trip for all ages.
Here, you don’t just see the animals—you meet them, snack in hand, and leave with stories worth telling.
