What do you need for this tour?

Essential items

We suggest you to bring these items for personal use to make your excursion perfect:

Small backpack.
Extra mineral water.
Personal care items (lip balm with sunscreen, sunscreen, antibacterial gel/wipes, insect repellent).
Special clothing: comfortable clothing appropriate to the weather forecast and footwear suitable for the activity.

Safety tips: Inform the guide or driver about any illness, allergy or physical restriction. Remember to bring your medication and administration instructions.
