Getting To Tagbo Waterfalls
It takes approximately 35 minutes to walk through the rainforest to reach the Tagbo waterfall, therefore wear very comfortable shoes when going on the tour. The rainforest is also home to a variety of insects, some of which aren’t so friendly and aren’t averse to biting. As a result, it is recommended that you wear gowns that cover your arms and legs to avoid bug bites. Also, don’t forget to bring a bottle of water with you because you may need it along the route.
