Baggage:
Please avoid large framed
suitcase as they can be rather
cumbersome to porters but use a
medium size duffle bag instead.
The weight limit on domestic
airlines is 20 Kg and only 2
check-in bags and one carry on
bag are allowed. Excess baggage
will be charged at up to US$ 5
per Kg. Your day pack should be
a medium volume without a frame
which can hold your personal
belonging such as medication,
camera, extra clothes, water
etc.
Clothing:
Should be lightweight, dry
quickly, and provide insulation
even when wet. The brushed nylon
pants are ideal for trekking.
Lightweight long sleeved shirt
is useful as sunscreen while
trekking. A good quality
raincoat and pants are ideal as
they will keep you warm and dry
in a variety of situations.
Foot ware:
Lightweight hiking boots or good
quality running shoes will be
ideal for the lowland trek. It
is essential your walking boots
be comfortable and broken-in.
Personal items:
Please bring personal item such
as flashlight or headlamp with
spare batteries. A pocketknife,
reading and writing material and
personal first aid kit would
also be essential for your
convenience.
Protection against insect
bite:
Most part the jungle is free
from biting insects, but we do
encounter them in the low land
such as sand flies around the
river banks and leaches in the
lowland bushes. It's important
to use insect repellent to keep
the insects away.
