Cara memilih pemandu satwa liar lokal di Sri Lanka
- Tanyakan apa yang biasanya mereka temukan pada musim kunjunganmu. Pemandu yang baik memberi jawaban jujur, bukan janji pasti melihat satwa tertentu.
- Perhatikan cara mereka memperlakukan satwa: tanpa umpan, tanpa memanggil satwa, tanpa memegang, dan tanpa flash dari jarak dekat demi foto.
- Pastikan titik temu, durasi, ukuran grup, total harga, dan cara pembayaran sebelum hari kegiatan, termasuk izin atau biaya taman yang diperlukan.
