in wheels, and a heavy duty lockable zipper. Please do not bring a rigid (plastic shell) suitcase.
Carry-on Bag
You are allowed one carry-on bag per person. We suggest a tote or small backpack that can be

camera, etc—during your daily activities.
A small additional bag: This small bag is a necessity for certain portions of your adventure.
• You will need it during the main trip for the flight between Akureyri and Reykjavik.
You should pack an overnight bag for this part of the trip and you will be able to send
your excess luggage with the motorcoach, which will meet the group at the airport upon
arrival in Reykyavik the following day.
• You’ll also want the bag if you are taking either the pre- or the post-trip extension.
During the extensions, you will be able to store your excess luggage at the hotel in
Reykjavik where you will be able to retrieve it upon your return (we return to Reykjavik
at the end of both extensions).

luggage unlocked. Outside of the U.S. we strongly recommend locking your luggage as a
theft-prevention measure.
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, and walking over some rough

comfortable walking shoes with arch support are suggested.
• Everyone should bring layers, even in summer, so you can adjust as the
temperature varies.
