Wear secure footwear
Closed-toe hiking shoes or sturdy sneakers with a good tread keep your feet stable on ladders and platforms.
Hydrate and snack beforehand
Bring water and eat a light snack before the tour—there's standing and climbing between lines, and you won't want to ride on an empty or overly full stomach.
Avoid loose clothing and jewelry
Remove scarves, long necklaces, and unsecured hats to prevent snagging on harnesses or lines.
Book mid-morning for best light
Early or mid-morning slots offer cooler temperatures and crisper visibility; afternoons can be windier and in summer noticeably hotter.
