Travel Tips

The best time to visit is during the dry season from May to October. Pack lightweight, breathable clothing, swimwear, and rain gear for occasional showers. Respect local customs by dressing modestly when visiting villages. Tap water is not always safe to drink; bottled water is recommended. Use insect repellent to avoid mosquitoes. Carry some cash as small vendors may not accept cards.
