TOP TIPS FOR TRAVELLING WITH TRAVELMARVEL
APT are excited to welcome you on your Travelmarvel tour soon. Below you will find a list of handy tips and tricks.
Check your passport expiration date
All passengers are required to possess a passport valid for at least six months after the conclusion of their trip. You should always carry your passport and other travel documents in your hand luggage.
Travelmarvel Documents and Travel Itinerary
A week before your tour you will receive all the documents required ahead of your trip via email, including any flights and hotel reservations made with Travelmarvel.
Pack an adaptor
If you are bringing appliances from home, an adapter suitable for your destination countries’ socket and voltage will be needed.
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 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 gastric upsets.
- Band-Aids and blister pads.
Luggage and Packing
Each passenger is entitled to take one piece of luggage that does not exceed 20kg (44lbs) and 160cm when all dimensions are added together.
When packing, we recommend casual and comfortable clothing. 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.
Withdraw local currency
Before you leave on your trip, it is recommended you obtain a small amount of cash in the currency of the country you will arrive in. Though most locations will accept credit cards, for small vendors and markets we recommend getting some local currency. If it is not possible to obtain the local currency before you leave, do not worry, it can be purchased at the airport on arrival or withdrawn at an ATM.
