Wear durable, closed-toe shoes

Respect the monkeys
Do not feed or touch macaques; store food out of sight and follow guide instructions to avoid bites or theft.
Choose tandem if unsure
Riding tandem lets first-timers get used to throttle and braking before driving solo on technical sections.
Closed-toe trail shoes
Protect feet from mud, rocks, and the ATV’s footrests.
Long pants
Reduce scrapes and insect bites during jungle and village sections.
Reusable water bottle
