Sunscreen, bug repellent, cash for tipping your guide, a camera, and comfortable clothing you don't mind getting wet. Sandals or athletic shoes work well.
Due to high demand, we strongly recommend reservations. If you arrive without one, we'll try to accommodate you, but it's easy to book online or by phone/text ahead of time.
