Since the costs are higher on holidays and weekends it is always better to go on the weekdays. If you are going to visit in number then it could be advisable to look for group packages if any.

Always have some cash handy – you can use it for things such as hot chocolate. Also, as soon as you enter – if you wish to avail as many rides as possible in the limited timeframe permitted – you should make a dash for them, specially the slides. With the crowd building up if you don’t hurry you won’t get the rubber tubes or rafts. Its various attractions make it one of the must-see spots in the capital city of Karnataka.
