You’ll receive a destination-specific packing list at the Meet & Greet one month before your trip. You’ll need a valid passport that does not expire for at least 6 months from your return date. As we will be using shared transfers and spaces throughout our tour we recommend all travelers pack as lightly as possible. All travelers are allowed to bring one large piece of luggage (not exceeding 50lbs (23kg) in weight, with the dimensions 30” x 18” x 10”), one small carry-on (12”x11”x6), and a personal item.

Not at all! While you will be able to participate in all the activities listed on your trip, we understand sometimes you may want to rest or do your own thing.

Your trip deposit is nonrefundable and nontransferable. Any additional payments made more than 60 days before the trip start date can be refunded. Please review the booking terms for additional information.
