Start early to beat heat
Begin in the morning to avoid midday humidity and long queues at popular stalls; mornings also bring fresher food options.

Stay hydrated and charged
Bring a refillable water bottle and a power bank; the hunt is social and photo-heavy, so battery life matters.
Respect private spaces
Many challenges involve interacting with locals — ask permission before photographing people or entering small businesses.
