Entry documents

Your departure country and passport nationality may differ. Use the guide for your passport, not simply where your flight starts. Check the official rules for your purpose, age, arrival date and documents.

Entry & visas

Budget and accommodation

Compare flight and accommodation quotes for your actual dates. Add luggage, airport transfers, local transport, food, connectivity and activities to the total. Compare the exchange rate and fees together, and check how your card handles overseas payments.

Your first day

Choose airport transport using your arrival time, accommodation location, luggage and accessibility needs. Keep a fallback if your preferred service is unavailable. Before buying connectivity, check your exact phone model, carrier lock, plan activation conditions and whether calls are included.

Food and places

Check menus and ingredients directly if you have dietary requirements; a dish name or photo cannot confirm them. Pick places near each other, save your shortlist and keep an indoor alternative for poor weather. Check opening information before setting out.
