Clothing Suggestions

Functional Tips

As you will experience a wide range of temperatures and weather conditions, we suggest
several layers of clothing. If you like to hand-wash your clothes, look for fabrics that will dry
out overnight. You can buy clothing designed especially for travel, with features like wrinkle-
resistant fabric or built-in sun protection.

• Footwear: You’ll be on your feet a lot during the trip, hiking and walking over some

and comfortable hiking shoes with arch support are suggested.

• Light rain gear is recommended. Regardless of when you travel, rainfall is a possibility.
While it may not rain on your trip, we suggest you bring a waterproof shell or coat,
preferably with a hood. This might be a better choice than a folding umbrella, which is

• Layers are key. We suggest wearing layers, so you can adjust to warmer and cooler
conditions as needed.

Style Hints

• Dress on our trip is functional and casual.

• Comfortable, informal apparel is perfectly acceptable in the countries on this adventure.

• Basic pants, shirts, sportswear, everyday dresses/skirts, supportive shoes, and functional
outdoor clothes that are relatively easy to care for are recommended.
