You will have a fantastic time at Monkey Forest. You just need to remember that you are in their territory. Its best to not get to close to them (as in, within arms length), dont let them climb on you (if they do, just bend over so they can jump off), do not entice them with loose sunglasses, water bottles, etc... dont feed them, and if one of the monkey's seems to be agitated, well, walk away, do not sit and watch it or listen to it grunt. Remove yourself from the path of the monkey. Same as you would in a zoo environment.
I have been a number of times and loved it. Everyone has their own experience, but I think its worthwhile. Just use common sense. You are in their home, respect it.
