Share:

When vacationing in Bali, in addition to the beautiful beaches, tourists are usually invited to visit monkey forest tourist destinations.

Visiting the monkey forest tourist destinations in Bali offers more than just a glimpse of the monkeys’ natural habitat. It’s also an experience where tourists can take selfies with these mischievous creatures, a joy that foreign tourists have been quick to share.

This is not just a photo. It’s fascinating because the monkey took the picture! In a viral video on TikTok, a pair of foreign tourists wanted to take the iconic photo.

The video uploaded by the @harrisonwiedman account shows that the tourist guide gave the monkey treats, and his hand was raised towards the cellphone as if he were taking a selfie.

Monkeys in Bali are always full of surprises. They’re known for their unpredictable antics, as seen in the video uploaded by @sabrinaweibel while visiting Uluwatu.

She had the intention of capturing a photo of the monkey, but to her surprise, the monkey snatched her cell phone. It’s a common warning for tourists to be cautious of their belongings due to the monkeys’ mischievous nature.

The funny thing is that the tourist asked for help from the staff in the area. After almost an hour of chasing the monkey, the monkey recorded itself on the cell phone, resulting in a funny video.
