Tips
Book early in the morning to avoid peak afternoon heat and rain showers; morning departures ensure the best light for photos and cooler temperatures during quad biking
Wear moisture-wicking clothing rather than cotton, as you'll be sweating from the physical activity and may get wet at multiple points during the experience
If you're a beginner on a quad bike, inform your guide beforehand so they can adjust the pace and provide extra instruction on the Gorilla Face trails
Apply sunscreen generously before starting and reapply after waterfall visits, as the jungle canopy offers limited shade and reflection from water intensifies UV exposure
Bring a GoPro or secure camera mount if you want hands-free video of the jungle swings—the standard photos simply don't capture the rush of this activity
