Attire Golden Rules

Some of our most asked questions center around Attire. We go into detail with travelers to ensure they’re comfortable with their selections, but to help ease your mind, here are a few quick Attire Golden Rules:

  • Keep it simple. We discuss tips to cut down on the number of outfits needed and make your mornings less stressful — so you can focus less on clothes and more on your experiences. The core premise behind our recommendations is that simple always wins.
  • Keep it light. Nobody ever said, “I wish I’d have packed more” as they navigated uneven cobblestone paths & stairways from airport to tram to train to taxi! We provide recommendations on shaving a few lbs … whether you follow them or not is up to you. 🙂
  • Stay comfortable. Your trip is definitely not the time to try out anything new — especially shoes! In fact, our first message re:attire discusses shoes in detail to help you get a jump on any necessary purchases, with plenty of time to break them in.
  • Be yourself. No matter how hard you try, you won’t fool anyone into thinking you’re a local, and that’s OK. We’ll provide some pointers to help you “fit in” a little better, but the overarching rule will be to dress like you do here. No need to stock up on special outdoor travel clothes or Fall Euro Fashion outfits, unless of course that’s what you wear at home.

Ultimately, we encourage you not to stress over dress. When you travel with us, we’ve got you covered.
