Health & Safety: To safeguard your health, consult your doctor about yellow fever and malaria precautions before your trip. If you choose to take malaria medication, we recommend starting it one week prior to departure to minimize any potential side effects during the tour. Bring all necessary medications with you. If you have allergies or chronic conditions, wear a medical alert bracelet and ensure your guide is informed of your medical needs.
Connectivity: Let family and friends know that you will be disconnected during the tour, as there is no open Wi-Fi or phone service in this remote area.
Tour Group Size: Our tours are designed with small groups between 8 and 10 people to provide a more personalized experience.
Family Travel: Families are welcome, though we recommend a minimum age of 5 for children. For greater comfort, especially with young children, consider booking a private tour, as some trails may be challenging.
