What to Bring
Suggested Travel Items
These are suggested items, please use your own discretion on what you might need.
General Suggestions:
• Day pack (Used for daily excursions) This one folds up! Foldable Day Pack
• Phone, watch, alarm clock if needed, and appropriate chargers
Most phone providers have an international plan for purchase, otherwise use wifi at hotels.
• Credit and debit cards (call banks first). ATMS in the airport or city are best for getting local currency.
• Outlet adapter (I will provide everyone with one of these as a gift)
If you plan to have a lot of items to plug in, this adapter with 3 plugs and 4 USB ports is handy and you can plug it into the converter for additional outlets
• Portable phone charger- you may be using your phone a lot on long drives
Charger for multiple device types iphone portable charger no cord
• Personal entertainment (Reading materials, Kindle, cards, ear buds, etc.)
• Camera (Optional) With extra memory cards and batteries/charger
• Reusable water bottle (optional)
• US Hair dryers will not work but our hotels will have them, and if you want to bring a curling iron or straightener, it has to be dual voltage or it won’t work, even with a converter, unless it can convert to 220v. This is an example of a Dual Voltage Curling Iron Combo straightener/curling iron
Health & Safety:
• Face masks (may be required some places)
• Hand sanitizer and/or wipes
• Pen (Please bring your own pen for filling out documents.)
• Care Kit (things like lip balm with sunscreen, sunscreen, Ibuprofen, bandaids, anti-histamines, antibacterial gel/wipes, antiseptic cream, tummy meds, prescription drugs you may be taking, motion-sickness if needed)
• Covid tests (no longer have to be lab tests for return, but carry in case of illness).
• Toiletries (I like these clear bags for seeing everything- and won't get wet on counters)
Luggage:
• If you can manage with a carry-on bag that will ensure there is less chance of lost luggage, but a checked size suitcase is fine and can be accommodated. I like ones that are soft sided and spinner wheels, but completely up to you!
• Day bag like a backpack or tote bag to keep with you on the bus (and plane)
• I have recently discovered packing cubes and really like them! Packing cubes
