Consider renting a bike to explore the surrounding area. It was a fun way to see the beautiful landscapes while getting away from the touristy spots.

Don't spend too much time on the bridge itself; it gets crowded. I suggest snapping some quick pics and exploring the nearby areas instead.

My advice is to bring snacks and water, as there's not much affordable food around. I ended up paying way more for a simple meal than I thought.

If you're into history, read up on the Death Railway beforehand. It adds a lot more meaning to the experience while you cross the bridge

My advice is to check out the drink prices before you go. They can be pretty steep; maybe share a couple of cocktails instead of ordering your own to save some cash.

I think it’s a good idea to dress smart-casual. They have a dress code, and you don't want to be turned away at the entrance. I saw it happen to a few folks!

If you want to avoid the crowds, I suggest visiting on a weekday. The weekends can get packed, and you might end up waiting for a table longer than you’d like

Check out their social media for any current promotions or discounts before you go; I saved a bit on my meal that way!

Try the signature cocktails—they're pricey but totally worth it. If you're on a budget, consider sharing drinks or opting for happy hour specials.

if you're planning to use the pool, my advice is to grab a drink from the bar before you dive in. the pool is super relaxing, and it's the perfect way to chill after exploring the area

I recommend going to the observation deck right when it opens at 10 AM for the best views and less crowd. You'll get to snap some amazing photos without people photobombing you!

My advice is to check for drink packages before ordering. They can be a bit pricey if you just go for individual drinks. I saved a decent amount by getting a package deal with appetizers!
