Some tips:
- Always respect the national park rules, do not litter and do not touch or feed animals. It's a journey into a natural habitat, not a petting zoo.
- Ensure you wear comfortable shoes and clothing suitable for walking in the rainforest and for the helicopter ride. Also, wear hats and sunglasses to protect from the sun.
- Confirm your helicopter ride in the morning, so you would be prepared for any weather changes. Lastly, the dinner by the beach will be even more memorable with a little surprise such as a small gift or a personal poem.
