Prepare Your Medication
If you have a food allergy or medical condition which needs to be managed on tour, please advise your Booking Agent before departure, and inform your Tour Director on arrival. It is also worth packing a small medical kit, as even though there will be pharmacies along your tour, they can be difficult to access, and a prescription may be required for some medications.
Suggested Packing List:
- A general-purpose antibiotic (e.g. azithromycin)
- Cold and flu medication
- Your preferred pain medication
- Medicine for gastronomic upsets
- Band aids and blister pads
Luggage and Packing
The majority of APT tours only allow 16kg to 20kg of luggage. When packing, consider the season of the destination you are travelling to, even in summer many destinations get cooler in the evenings, so it is a good idea to pack a jumper/jacket. We recommend packing light to medium weight clothing as well as rainwear in case of cooler or wet weather. Good walking shoes are must
