On a small-group trip you will carry your bag onto trains, ferries and up hotel stairs. Packing light makes every day easier.
The list
- Three tops and two pairs of trousers that all go together
- One warm layer and one rain jacket
- Walking shoes you have already broken in
- A small day pack
- Travel-size everything, and a laundry bag
Leave at home
- Anything you would need only “just in case”
- A second pair of evening shoes
- Full-size bottles
If you have not worn it in two trips, it does not come on the third.
Most hotels on our trips have a laundry service, and we plan at least one free afternoon a week.
