Passports & Visas

• Passports: Check your destination’s validity rules. For travel to Europe, your passport must be issued less than 10 years before the date you enter and be valid for at least 3 months after the day you plan to leave.
   
• Visas & Authorisations: Some countries require a visa or an electronic travel authorisation (e.g. ESTA/eTA). Check requirements with the relevant embassy or consulate.

Health & Vaccinations

Check compulsory and recommended vaccinations and health precautions for your destination. Seek advice from a GP, pharmacist or a travel health clinic, ideally at least 8 weeks before departure.

Travel Insurance

Comprehensive travel insurance is essential. It can cover cancellation, medical emergencies, loss of belongings and repatriation. We recommend arranging suitable cover as soon as your booking is confirmed.
