Travel Tips

The best time to visit is during the dry season from December to March and July to August. Pack comfortable walking shoes, light clothing for daytime, and warmer layers for cooler evenings. Respect local customs and dress modestly when visiting archaeological sites. Carry cash as card acceptance can be limited. Stay hydrated and use insect repellent. Safety is good but remain vigilant in isolated areas.
