The Akumal Sanctuary is $65/person. Tour lasted about 2 1/2 hours. I was just there today. It is a monkey sanctuary but they dont turn away other animals needing rescue, ie Mccaws, zebras, lemurs, etc. They are doing a great thing and are obviously in their first development phase. I thought the experience was wonderful and would recommend it.
You may have it confused with Jungle Place. It has a minimum donation of $80 and it requires reservations. We looked into it but their first opening wasn't for 2 more weeks. The Akumal Sanctuary is so new (opened this summer) it isnt even advertised yet in Playa del Carmen.
Also Tulum Sactuary is permanently closed.
Hope this clears things up.
