Getting Ready

6 – 9 months before travel

  • Review requirements for visas to enter your destination country and how long you can stay.
  • Check your passport expiration date – many countries will not allow you to enter if your documents are within 6 months of expiring.
  • Check what immunizations / vaccinations are required for your destination.

3 – 6 months before travel

  • Join Facebook and other groups related to travel in your planned destination.
  • Schedule and get your immunizations and vaccinations.
  • Make first night and last night reservations at your destination and departure points (this will relieve a lot of stress around travel).
