There have been controversies about animal welfare especially with the monkeys being treated in cage and chained. However, that is nothing like that in Can Gio Monkey Island. The monkey is FREE and they even have their own baby sitter (the monkey trainer - provided by Government). They can be very friendly, lovely and even naughty at the same time.

Meeting with the monkeys, you should never do the following things:
- Feed them => They will keep coming after you
- Yell at them => They will be angry and will take revenge when they can
- Throw stuffs at them => They will be angry and will throw stuffs back at you
- Wear strong or colorful dress: Red, colorful flowers etc... => Strong color or too colorful can make the monkey feel like they are in danger and so they will start to attack by tearing off the dress.
- Leave your belonging unchained => The monkey is very curious about things so if things left un-chained, they will come after that and take those for themselves.
If you obey the above rules, you can see how lovely the monkey can be. Beside the monkey, traveling on river in Can Gio should also be on your must do list. Going by the speedboat along the wide opening and surrounded by beautiful green scenery of mangrove trees will sure be memorable and linger in your memory when you get back home.
