The Experience
Before You Go
Footwear for wet terrain
Use closed-toe sandals or lightweight hiking shoes that drain and grip wet limestone and river rock.
Respect weight limits
Horseback riders are limited to about 240 lbs and ziplines to about 285 lbs—confirm before booking to avoid last-minute cancellations.
Protect electronics
Carry a small waterproof pouch and secure straps for cameras—phones will likely get splashed during the falls and rafting.
Hydrate and pace yourself
Bring a 1–2L water bottle and plan for shade breaks between activities—the day can be hot and active.
