  • Luggage And Bags: Luggage with wheels is always a good idea, wherever you are travelling.

    Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: ~ Light coloured clothing that doesnt absorb the sun as much as dark clothing. Pack comfortable walking shoes and casual clothes.

    ~ Long-sleeved shirts and trousers will help protect you against the sun.

    ~ A cap/hat that covers your head and neck.

    ~ Sunglasses.

    ~ Comfortable sandals and tackies/trainers/sneakers.

    Toiletries & Medical Supplies: ~ sun screen (Factor 35), headache tablets (from being in the car during the sun all day, may bring on a headache), and usual little things like some plasters for blisters, cotton wool, germolene etc.

    Photo Equipment: Your camera, with charger, and a EUROPEAN plug extension.


    Miscellaneous: Have a map and a bottle of water handy at all times. Maybe even bring a fan.
    It is not just a place to sight-see, but a place to learn from too.
