The best time to visit is during the dry season from June to December. Pack lightweight clothing, swimwear, sunscreen, and insect repellent. Respect local customs and dress modestly when visiting religious sites. Stay hydrated and be cautious with street food if you have a sensitive stomach. Use registered taxis and avoid isolated areas at night. Credit cards are accepted in many places, but carrying some cash in USD is advisable.
