Pay a visit to the Monkey Island

Actually just a name to call the monkey farm in Can Gio Island, the Monkey Island is home to more than 1,000 long-tailed monkeys varying in types. You will have so much fun when playing with these smart animals, feeding them, shaking hands with them and taking many beautiful pictures of them and yourself. However, as there are many mischievous monkeys, which can suddenly pull tourists’ items, you have to be careful while feeding them. Getting close to them is good but keeping the safe space from them is better. When you decide to choose Can Gio for your Ho Chi Minh day trips, the Monkey Island is absolutely one of the most attractive places you should not miss.
