Sometimes life gets in the way and as your travels approach you don't feel quite as organised as you'd hoped you would be! Don't worry, this checklist should help, and you can also download our packing list for walking holidays and packing list for cycling holidays, or check out our blog for hints, tips, and advice.

Pre-departure information & your online account:

Check you have our information pack (which includes your accommodation itinerary and full details of your adventure). We'll email you when everything is ready in your online account, and aim to have any postal items with you at least 4 weeks prior to departure. Read the information carefully in advance.

Download the Macs Adventure App:

Your trip information, maps, accommodations, and route guidance will all be in one place at the touch of a button in the Macs Adventure app. Make sure you download it, and make sure you also download all your trip details when prompted, so that they are available offline with no data connection too. Already downloaded the app? Great! Make sure you click any notifications to "sync" before you go, so that your trip information is fully up to date. Find out more at macsadventure.com/app.

Let us know your travel plans:

If you haven't done so already, please let us know any flight or other arrival/departure times and dates, so that we can update our accommodation or transport providers. Contact hello@macsadventure.com.

Passport & visa requirements:

If you are travelling overseas, now is the time to triple check you have a valid passport and the correct visa for the destination you are visiting. UK citizens should refer to the Foreign Office Website.

Travel Insurance:

It is a condition of booking with us that you have your own travel insurance which includes cover for all activities featured as part of your trip. Read our advice, or speak to any reputable broker or insurer.

Health advice:

The NHS Fit for Travel website has comprehensive health information for travel, general information on vaccinations and advice on staying safe in various countries. Check with your local GP surgery if you have any concerns.

Have a safe & healthy trip:

Please read our Adventure Safe - Having a safe and happy holiday leaflet, which is packed full of helpful advice to help you have a safe and enjoyable trip.
