What To Pack for a European Cruise?

Here is a list of essentials that you shouldn’t forget to pack on your trip to Europe –

1. Sunscreens

The first item on this list of what to pack for a European cruise is sunscreen. Many of the European destinations like Spain, Greece, Italy, and Venice have hot and sunny weather as compared to the rest of the continent. So, it’s sensible to carry sunscreen in your essentials, especially if you are visiting in summer.

2. Sunglasses

Also, carry a pair of shades as well. Make sure these sunglasses block the harmful UV rays.

3. Essential medicines

In your list of top things to pack for a cruise to Europe, medicine is a must. Make sure you carry all of your prescribed drugs in a secure package while you are on the cruise. In addition, you should carry enough medical supplies to last you throughout the cruise. Although there is always a doctor available onboard, and medicines are available in every port, there is always a chance that you might not find the same medicine everywhere.

4. Waterproof camera

It’s always a great option to record and vlog your foreign trip. So, you need a camera with you. Make sure that it is a waterproof camera.

5. Power bank

Since you will be busy making videos and taking photos all around, your phone and camera will need adequate battery support to run smoothly. So, make sure you are carrying a power bank in case you are off the cruise and have no place to charge your devices.

6. Memory cards

There is so much data to record. Keep some memory cards as a backup for uninterrupted filming.

7. Extra batteries

The batteries are for the camera or any other devices that may require them.

8. Adaptor (for overnight stays)

Your laptop or other electronic gadgets need an adaptor. Keep an extra one at all times.

9. Necessary clothes

Since there is no dress code for boarding a cruise, unless otherwise stated, you can wear whatever you want. However, if you want an expert opinion, be prepared for every event. This means you should pack clothes that you can mix and match such as, casuals, and evening wear. The right accessories can take a day look into night.

Additionally, if you are planning to take part in specific activities on the cruise, then pack accordingly.
