Planning a big trip to Europe is one of the most exciting time that any traveller can go through as there is so much to see and so much culture to explore. But where do you start with your packing process? To help you remember every item that you need, we have compiled a list of our top picks for items you should bring to Europe with you.
Bring Your Camera
When travelling to Europe you are set to see a huge amount of history, as well as a number of interesting places, nestled n some of the worlds most beautiful cities. With the likes of the Trevi fountain in Rome, Big Ben in the heart of London and the Eiffel tower all there for you to photography, why rely on just your phone. By packing your favourite camera, you can make some amazing images that you can either keep for yourself or add it to a photobook.
Make Sure You Have Comfortable Shoes
Though this may seem like a strange thing to pack, a pair of comfortable shoes is the perfect item for you to bring to Europe. With several European locations allowing, you to walk for miles and see all the sites, having comfortable shoes will help you to see as much as you can without your legs hurting at the end of the day. Alongside these shoes, you should also pack a pair of heels or smart shoes for a night out to make sure that you are prepared for every event you attend.
European Travel Insurance
In addition to some of the physical items that you should pack, it is important to make sure that you have both a UK GHIC card and travel insurance. The GHIC card and travel insurance are both there to provide you with access to health care should you need it as well as protecting you should any of your items be stolen. These can be applied for online and you can customise the amount of coverage that you have on your policy. These can also be extended to cover both you and your family members.
A Prepaid Sim For Europe
When travelling from areas such as the US you may also require a pre-paid sim card and a burner phone to contact friends and family back home and where you are staying. These can be purchased before you travel or even when you arrive and can be used throughout your trip and taken back home with you to use again next time. They also come in a wide range of shapes and sizes allowing you to leave it in a suitcase or a backpack to pack it without adding to much weight to your bag.
Regardless of whether you are just taking a carry-on bag on your next trip or you are looking to fill up some pace in your suitcase, we believe that these choices will help you to achieve exactly that. Which of these will you be packing when you are travelling?
