Usually you need to bring your own sleeping bad, powerful torch light, backpack capacity 40 – 60L, trekking pole, rubber shoe, glove, and cooking utensil. Some of the equipment might prepare by your guide as well.
There is no money changer, ATM and Bank in Taman Negara. The nearest bank is 1.15hrs away. So please get enough cash when you travel to Taman Negara.

Usually the end of Dec is heavy rainfall in Taman Negara. The weather here could be rain for a day non-stop. If you plan to come on December, is advice to email us and ask the weather conditions before you book any tour. However the weather is hard to predict now, in 2017 & 2018 we almost have good weather in December with not much rain. Year 2019 biggest rainfall on the first week of December and second ~ fourth week is good weather with day time sunny, rain during evening or midnight
All activities in Taman Negara rely on weather vice. If little rain, all activities proceed as usual. Heavy rain will delay the trip and wait for the rain to stop. If the rain non-stop, we will cancel the trip and there is no refund on any weather cause.
No, because all the bumbung in Taman Negara does not allow advance booking even ourselves as a tour operator (Fair play for everyone). This is because the limitation place available on each bumbung. To book a place in bumbung, you need to register a Park Entry Permit from the Wildlife Department, and use your Park Entry Permit to reserve a place. This can be book a day before and first come first serve.
My answer is yes. In 2019, we had reported 7 cases lost because they went without a guide. For your safety, is advice to hire a guide to go with you, this is cheaper than paying for rescue fees. Major bumbung are in deep jungle, no mobile network. To hire a guide, you may ask from the Wildlife Department.
