1. When embarking on a boat tour, keep a large plastic bag tied to the top. Even though your gear may not get wet, still it is a safe option and also keeps away the prying fingers of notorious people.

2. You will require a hammock and some rope to hang it to enjoy a peaceful and relaxing tour. You can even keep along a sleep sack or a sheet if the temperature lowers.

3. If you want to reserve a good hammock spot, it is advisable to get into the boat at least six to seven hours early. During the departure time, the hammock area will be full and you will have to compromise with fellow passengers either swinging beneath or above you.

4. Typically, the boats will have three decks. The middle and lower ones are for hammocks and the top deck is for hanging out. Actually, the engine is on the first, so reserving a place in the middle deck is the best bet. Make sure to reserve a place away from the buffet area as it will be noisy and crowded during meal times. Also, keep away from the toilets as they can smell.
