Advantages: lots of monkeys to see
Disadvantages: can get busy
We went to monkey world in july 2008 having been recommended it by a friend. We managed to find the place ok and parked up in the field next to the entrance.
The prices were reasonable for us as in our party was 1 adult, 1 student and 1 oap so managed to get a reduced rate for the student and oap.
At first when we entered the site in the morning and started to look around we didnt see a lot happening. However as it got later on the monkeys started to become more active and watching the feeding times were great. There is a good selection of dfferent species of monkeys from the orangutang to the spider monkeys.
Word of warning the place is massive to walk round so be prepared to do a bit of walking. However the paths are flat so its easy to push a wheelchair or pushchair round.
At the far end of the site is a play area that looked quite large. I think there was a picnic area there too.
A good idea is to take a picnic as there is another largeish picnic area near the entrance.
Getting into the shop was a struggle as it was packed and there was a large queue to pay. The shop stocks the normal things you would expect such as cudly monkeys, drink bottles with monkeys on etc.
Monkey world was a good day out for us and would be great for families with children.
Summary: great for families
