seeing these little guys up close is a treat!

so you’ll have plenty of time to snap some great photos while they swing through the treetops or curiously watch you back.

Jozani Forest is also a vibrant ecosystem filled with towering mahogany trees, exotic birds, butterflies, and even medicinal plants that locals have been using for centuries.

Our guides are experts—not only will they walk you through the lush forest trails, but they’ll also share cool stories about the plants, wildlife, and the cultural significance of the area.
