Local tips
- Book a tour in advance, as independent visits require a permit that is difficult for tourists to obtain.
- Wear comfortable training shoes, as the trails can be slippery, especially after rain.
- Bring a water bottle and rain jacket, as the weather can be hot and humid with sudden showers.
- Be prepared for a physically demanding experience, especially when climbing the stairs to the Canopy Walkway.
- Look out for wildlife, but remember that sightings are not guaranteed due to the vastness of the jungle.
