Tips for This and Future Tours

  • Bring raincoat with hood, maybe umbrella
  • Temperature ranges throughout the tour (i.e., what clothing to bring)
  • Getting SIM card, which provider(s) are best (we used EE because of my research showing EE is available all over, which was the case for most of the trip, costing 10 pounds), and for our tour the options were available a short walk from the hotel; most phones except Verizon use GSM so SIMs can be purchased and phones used in UK/EU
  • Maybe 2nd set footwear in case first gets wet
  • Don't bring lots of clothing, you can wash (rinse) and dry clothing during the 2-night stay hotels
  • If you bring reusable water bottles then you can refill them at breakfast and/or buy big water bottles and refill them
  • Bring an extra memory card for your camera(s)
  • Bring Dramamine or similar in case you may have motion sickness (also Tylenol or Aspirin for possible headaches)
  • First day of arrival, stay up till 10pm at least and drink plenty of water – this will help you adjust to the new timezone faster
