Wondering what to wear? We recommend dressing conservatively, as we’ll be visiting non-touristy areas. Long trousers or jeans and a t-shirt are ideal.
Bringing valuables? Best to leave passports, credit cards, and other valuables at your hotel. Just bring a small amount of spending cash.
Planning to take photos? Only small cameras are allowed — large professional gear isn’t suitable for this experience.
Visiting during rainy season (May to September)? A raincoat or umbrella is highly recommended to stay dry while exploring the markets.
Want to support local communities? This tour directly benefits independent market vendors and family-run businesses.
Expecting a light stroll? This tour covers around 6 km (3.7 miles) of walking through bustling markets and city streets. It can be quite strenuous for those not used to walking long distances.
Need vegetarian, gluten-free, or lactose-free options? We’re happy to accommodate these dietary requirements — just let us know at least 24 hours before your tour so we can prepare accordingly.
