What to Pack
Last Updated: 22nd May 2013
Whether you’re a seasoned veteran, or taking your first big trip overseas, deciding on what to pack is an important decision.
Suggested packing lists for tours to:
- Australia – Swimmers? Sunscreen? Jeans or Shorts?
- New Zealand – A jacket in the middle of Summer? You better believe it.
- USA and Canada – What to bring to look good and stay comfortable; from California beaches to Vegas nightclubs to the hustle and bustle of the Big Apple.
- Egypt – How to best deal with the desert heat.
- Europe – Summer – All that you need to survive, look good, and be comfortable on beaches of the French Riviera, to the fashion capitals of Rome, Paris and London.
- Europe – Winter – Jackets? Scarves? Sweaters? What you need to pack and what you should leave at home.
What to Pack
- Carry on Luggage – What to pack for your flight.
- Day Bag – What’s a day bag and why do you need one?
- Dress Code for Europe – What to wear to fit in Euro-style.
- Shoes – what shoes to pack when you want to look good but also be practical.
- Power Adapters – adapters? converters? What’s the difference between them and what do you need for your tour?
- Suitcase or Backpack? – Figuring out what to bring is easy compared to what to put it all in.
- Weight and Size Limits – Airlines aren’t the only ones with weight and size restrictions…

I’m a bit of a tech head and will be taking my laptop and a few other bits and pieces on my European Spirit tour in a couple of months time. Take a look at my Road Warrior Tech Kit and let me know what gear you took on tour with you.

Your bag is your life. The smaller it is the less it sticks outs and the less vulnerable you feel. The closer you can stick to it and less cumbersome it is the happier you will be. Great resource ! Happy Traveling :)

many lives were lost to allow this man to roam free even if his test were inconclusive. They should have relieved him of his passport when they found out that he was not an American citizen.

I must say – the bloggers are spamming here. They don’t have any Idea about the content and have just spread a shit here. The admin must be stricter about this bloggers and have to create a spam-filter for this shit comments. They are just destroying the environment here.

I went to Bali not long ago with my brother and we did lotsssss of shopping. When we went to pack to come home nothing fitted.
We found that rolling out clothes created more space and the clothes took up a smaller portion of the suitcase.First we folded them as normal, then rolled them (down the length). Our clothes just stacked into a couple of small rows and then everything else fitted around :)

For women, conservative clothing that covers you knees and shoulders (no halter neck or mid-riff tops, short shorts, etc) is not a must but is encouraged as it is respectful of the local culture. Even for men, long, light clothes are also recommended as they help protect you from the sun. Dressier but still light and comfortable clothes are also recommend for evening meals if that is you style. new ford

Pack enough clothes to last a week and then u can always wash and dry them at the sites, probably recommend not to carry such a big suitcase like i did, going up the stairs at the chateau and also in Austria was such a pain, also girls recommend pack a few dresses u go out alot and don’t actually have much time to do shopping unless you miss some excursions and I wouldn’t recommend that.

Itter was one of the nicest town's I've ever been in, absolutely gorgeous. It's a sleepy town, but on Contiki you bring your own nightlife. This was one stop I wont forget.
I bought a high sierra duffel bag - it has a zip down panel on the back and you can pull out the back pack straps…I also have a laptop back pack…
I went on two tours alone...I made life-long friends along the way! That's the nature of Contiki.
