Packing Suggestions

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.

Luggage:

  • Hard-sided roller luggage works best as your primary piece of baggage.

  • A large backpack can work but straps can be annoying if you’re not going to use it as a backpack.

  • A carry-on that can fit in an overhead compartment is ideal for essential items (and for short trips to places like Machu Picchu and Amazon jungle lodges).

  • Smaller packing organizers, stuff sacks or plastic ziplock bags help keep your items separated and easy to find.

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

Costa Rica & Nicaragua Multi-Adventure Trip

Between two oceans, the land narrows into a spine of mountains and volcanoes where rivers spill through jungle and cloud forests brush the sky. This is Central America in its purest form — wild, restless, and alive with water and light. From the whitewater rivers of Costa Rica to the volcanic islands of Lake Nicaragua, this journey traces a route through shifting landscapes and small moments that stay with you long after you’ve left them behind.

Guyana in Living Color Travel Package

Guyana rewards curiosity. It’s a country that has managed to keep its wild heart intact—an expanse of rainforest, rivers, and savannahs that remains more lived-in than overrun. This journey traces its contrasts: the creole pulse of Georgetown’s markets, the ancient calm of the interior, and the thundering solitude of Kaieteur Falls.

Arequipa and Colca Canyon Peru

Arequipa is Peru's second largest city and was founded in 1540. The buildings in the center have been built almost exclusively of the volcanic material called 'sillar,' a white, porous rock, giving Arequipa its nickname of 'The White City'. The place is tranquil yet delightful, all set in a rich green valley at the foot of the mighty El Misti Volcano.

Los Dos Cayos – Belize

The Los Dos Cayos All-Inclusive Package offers an incredible opportunity to explore Belize’s pristine tropical rainforest and Maya culture. After that, you can then splash in the beautiful Caribbean Sea along Belize’s Great Barrier Reef with this one-of-a-kind seven day rainforest and reef package. Finish your trip on the island of Ambergris Caye, a short flight from Belize City. San Pedro, the only town, is a laid-back home to a variety of restaurants, cantinas, shops and grocery stores.
