In my memory more stray monkeys that were really visible.

Great to walk around with children and grandchildren for a day. Especially the monkeys that walk around everywhere are fantastic for everyone to see. It is also nice to see if they are fed.

Many different monkeys you have to look good. Go early the shows are until 3 pm

Always liked to go here with the family. Nice park where there is enough to see to spend a few hours. Food was a bit disappointing but you were ready for about 7 euros per person.

Have been coming here for years when we are on vacation in the Veluwe, first as a little boy with my parents, later with my own child and now today I have been with my wife after a few years. I saw that the entrance was renewed was nice, it looked nice and quiet so no long lines. But it was also quiet with monkeys. I can remember that there were some more free roaming around years ago. There were a lot of small monkeys to see, that was nice. Places to eat and toilet are plentiful. For small children there are more than enough play and clamber gear and other fun things. But despite having been in the park for more than 4 hours, we actually saw very little. In the average zoo you see much more, which is logical, because more variety, but in my experience there was more to see in the past. I think the target group also children, who will have a great day here because there is a lot of vpor children.I think the entrance is pretty tough 23 euros per person plus 8.80 parking costs.in spite of this we had a nice afternoon but it will be another take a few years before we come back.

Amazing place to visit with the whole family. Lots of opportunities to learn about different types of monkeys. Some of them (the smallest ones) literally jump on your shoulders and play with you.

On a study day to the Apenheul with a discount at Eurosparen. Still saves half. There was nothing crowded and we walked the "reverse" route. We only saw how many people there were during the presentation of the gorillas. But still it was very busy in terms of crowds.

Nice park, but can be very busy, especially on weekends or during the holiday season. You follow more or less a fixed route through the park, so that the mass always moves in the same direction. At catering points often very busy, long lines; take the (very) necessary yourself!
In terms of animals nice in design, well maintained. Free-running monkeys are of course always fun!

The Apenheul is a great place to go, view monkeys and even touch them! There is a lot to see and do and you can certainly have a full day of fun. I will definitely go there again!

Leuk, maar niet meer zo speciaal als vroeger. Erg gereguleerd waardoor je slechts op enkele plaatsen de apen van dichtbij meemaakt. Veel horeca...

Super cute zoo. Super lots of monkeys and almost everywhere they run loose. The food shows are also worthwhile. If you really go for a whole day, you will soon be around, but you can certainly walk around for an hour or a 5/6. Before you reach the main entrance, you walk for about 1 km through a beautiful park. A disadvantage if you have difficulty walking. Not recommended during a rainy day, since almost everything is outside.

Had a nice day . Only not to eat hamburger and fries. Pre-cooked factory burger and bad smacking fries. And for the main prize.

Continue to enjoy for young and old, walking among the loose monkeys and also fun food shows.

Super nice park. See animals well. Enough play opportunities for the children

Kei tof, nicely decorated and cared for animal park. Top

Leuk en leerzaam park waarin apen zich vrij rond kunnen bewegen.

Make sure you have all day! Beautiful environment. Interesting facts. Plenty to see. Wind your way trough the greenery. Stop for a snack and enjoy.

It is a pity that when it is busy you hardly see any stray monkeys feather super nice park

Just interesting how the monkeys can live in freedom and not in tight cages

Fine park, only because of corona virus a very limited. It is almost impossible to keep a meter and a half.

Monkeys that can move around in a beautifully laid out park

Nice zoo and ample parking. There are also nice playgrounds for the children.

Beautifully landscaped park where animal welfare certainly counts. Catering establishments are moderate and at the price. Visitor flows should be better regulated.

Fell against dealing no longer come to you like before, very unfortunate !!!

Great park. Children and grandchildren have a great time

Well kept animals also handy with these heat water bottles to sell

Nice place everywhere monkeys and such good signs in the park weighing indicated and where exactly is. You also have a booth at each eetgelegenheids place wherever you can take a picture with monkeys there and can send it to your email .. Had lots of fun there and the kids have their eyes forward

Had a nice day . Recommended. In addition to all that there is a nice playground. If you order tickets online and go in before 10 am, it is 3 euros per person.

The monkey haul is always a party. Especially if it is not busy one day!

Nice to see that the animals have a lot of space. There is a playground. There is a carousel. Food is expensive and not special. Admission is actually too expensive. People who live in the neighborhood can subscribe extremely cheaply. So the one-off guests actually pay partly for the subscription holders. People with subscriptions and who live nearby don't buy anything at the restaurant or shop. I therefore prefer a lower normal entrance fee so that more people come from far and higher turnover is generated. Most "shows" are in the morning, so if you are a bit later you will have missed the necessary. Make sure you are there early and can leave early. There is not much to see or do. Furthermore, you can now feed animals in many places, but here it is out of the question. A slingshot or air cannon with pre-filled food would be nice, or give the squirrel monkeys a peanut or something. Now there is a focus on what is not allowed. Not this, not that, not sister, not like that.
The best thing about Apenheul is the park in front that is free. Instead of the Apenheul, enjoy the forest, the watchtower, the fountain, the park, the playground, etc, anything is allowed there.

Nice park! We lived there around the corner and would like to spend a day in the Apenheul. Especially the children find it absolutely crazy there. You have a section where smaller monkeys roam free. The monkeys can also come to you. Good care is taken in advance to ensure that valuables and loose items are properly stored away. Furthermore, the park is clean and doable in a day. The entrance price is reasonable. You often have promotions, so you can go to the Apenheul with a (much) discount or get a free ticket.

It disappointed me when it came to free-running monkeys

Mega busy, logical it is summer vacation, the monkeys were not really very active, the orangutans were staring inside at the gates below, very unfortunate, idea to go to the squirrel monkeys at the end of the day, then it is less busy.

Very nice zoo and very nice that the monkeys can walk around freely.

Very nice park. We were here on a warm summer day in the Corona time. As a result, the monkeys were not really active and a number of areas were closed. Despite this, many different monkeys were spotted. When we got to the ring-tailed lemurs, they just got fed. Suddenly they came from everywhere. That did impress the children.
The children also had a great time in the various playgrounds and monkey cages.
With the reduced afternoon rate, a visit for a whole family can be easily paid.

This is a park see the depth goes in area of monkeys. They also have other animals. But monkeys have a lot of knowledge about that. But also about birds.

Very beautiful and neat park! Nice interaction with the monkeys. Friendly staff who are happy to answer your questions.

Especially the stray monkeys are a joy for the children to watch.

Clean, beautiful park. Beautiful environment. Many monkeys who even come to see the pram to see if there is anything to get.

Super nice day out with the family! Fun for young and old :)

Was a wonderful day. Everywhere staff you can ask questions and the animals are quite happy and happy

The park is very beautiful and the animals live free or in large enclosures with spout. But the little monkeys are running around freely. Great experience for young and old.
Parking fees are quite expensive over 8 . You can stay there for the whole day, but nobody does that.

Very, very, very busy.
It is unfortunate that there is one route through the park through which you shuffle along in a large herd of people who are occasionally showing themselves.
Much information is offered about the animals in a fun and varied way.
I find the variety of a zoo (and the children) more fun than viewing the 30 or more different monkey species in a park.

Enorm druk op zonnige dagen, maar leuke opzet van het park. Een snelle doorsteek in het park is niet mogelijk.

It is a pity that because of Corona all many nice parts where the monkeys walk around are closed. I understand that we have to protect the animals, but I would expect that people do something with the entrance fee because the experience is very different. We also had a nice day

A fun outing for the whole family. It is nice that you can get so close to a number of (half) monkeys and that they sometimes even climb on you. Some monkeys even pose extensively if you want to take a photo. Watch out for loose items that you carry with you, some monkeys have grippy hands. Fortunately, this is well indicated throughout the park.

Nice park but considering the current Corona time it was WAY too busy. People stood close together in the indoor areas, at the terraces it was impossible to keep 1.5 meters away and there were also far too few employees to keep an eye on things.

In addition, quite a lot of interactive items were broken. I did not expect that given the hefty entrance fee.

It is a beautiful park only because of the corona a part was closed which was a shame

Super place, some hassle with parking when it is busy.

Been a few days ago with my friend (tickets to the friends lottery). It is a quiet area where you can often enjoy the many monkeys that can be seen and also occasionally walk between you. There are regular eateries throughout the park. It was a great day out!

A great place for a daily visit. Apes are well taken care of and the park layout was really good. Corona ruins it a bit though with distance to apes and so on..

Nice that there are no fences in many places, staff keep an eye on everything, animals are not allowed to touch, very good that they are strict in this!

very nice but too busy, then few seats and long line to eat

Very nicely laid out and there are many staff who keep an eye on everything to see if everything is going well. Nice stops for a drink and where the children can play. Delicious enjoyed. Actually not everything properly seen because it was smaller in my experience, so definitely go back. What is also nice is that you can bring your own food and drinks. You are not allowed to eat it alone in the part of the stray monkeys.

Beautiful animals in beautiful natural surroundings

Beautiful monkey park where you get the idea that they do everything for the animals. The orangutans are sometimes in for a joke to scare the visitors: lol!

Nice to walk between the monkeys while doing their own thing.

Fantastic built park where the monkeys and other animals alternate perfectly and the accommodations have a very "open" feeling. Presentations and interactive feeding times of the animals were also great!

Nice park to visit. Educational and entertainment for children combined. You can easily spend a day here. The presentations give a glimpse into the daily life of the monkeys. Recognizable behavior: a mirror and a smile.
