Amazing! We went in early December and saw lots of monkeys. The monkeys walked really close to us tourists and we were able to get some really great photos.

However, be prepared when you go! The walk to the park from the bus stops is long (30 min at least) and has a few steep stairways. On the day we went it was raining/snowing and the path was extremely muddy. My shoes were a mess at the end. When we got up to the park the snow and wind really picked up and it got to freezing! Wear water proof shoes, thermal socks and gloves if you plan to go in the winter months. I wish I had!
