Packing Suggestions
A rule of thumb – if you cannot carry all of your luggage by yourself with ease, then you have probably packed too much. It is best to fit everything into a single piece of checked luggage and a carry-on.

General packing ideas and checklist for all trips:
Shoes – unless you are on a specialized trekking trip it is best to wear sturdy but comfortable and broken-in shoes that are good for walking.
Cold weather – layer your clothing with a lightweight, quick-dry, moisture-wicking bottom layer, a warm mid-layer, an outer layer (jacket or coat) that is wind/rain-proof.
Formal wear – unless you plan to dine at upscale, fine-dining restaurants, dressy attire should not be necessary. You’re on vacation so dress casually.
General packing suggestions:
- Clothing appropriate to your trip
- Sunscreen
- Personal toiletries and medications
- Insect repellent (depending on your destination)
- Water bottle
- Small flashlight or headlamp
- Chargers for your electronic devices
- A daypack for camera, extra clothing layers, water and snacks
