In September the temperatures in London are likely to be in the upper 60s during the day, falling to mid-50s overnight. The chance is high that you will see some rain during your stay. Paris is likely to be warmer with temperatures into the 70s during the daytime, and less chance of rain.  

For This Trip You May Want—

• Clothing that easily layers for warmth
• Lightweight rain jacket or travel umbrella
• Smart-casual wear if you'd like to dress up a bit for dinners

Good Packing Habits—

• Bring what you need to get a good night's sleep, such as ear plugs, white noise generator, sleeping aids, etc. Unfamiliar noises of all types can disrupt your rest.
• Pack a limited amount of comfortable, casual clothing that layer and coordinate. Your fellow travelers will not mind or even notice – seeing you in the same clothing.
• Bring only two pairs of everyday shoes: one pair of well-broken-in walking shoes, and a second pair that could do double-duty as a walking shoe or a slightly dressy shoe.
• Pare down your beauty regimen to the bare minimum and always pack travel-sized toiletries.
• Pack medication in your carry-on and pack only as much as needed for the duration of your tour plus a few extra days as a precaution.

• It is best to travel as lightly as possible. Most travelers regret when they have packed too much.
• You may bring one suitcase plus a carry-on bag/purse.
• The Eurostar train restricts luggage size to 33 inches (85 cm) at its widest point. You must be able to lift and carry your own luggage on to the train.
• We recommend your suitcase be no larger than 26 inches high as measured from the FLOOR to the top of the retracted handle to make it easy for you to handle yourself.
  
• You are responsible for managing your own belongings. We expect you to take your belongings from the coach to your room and to bring it back to the coach on days we change hotels. We do not provide luggage pulls; they are not safe and are inconvenient.
• Steps exist at hotel entrances and to board trains.

• You should understand what your current cell phone plan includes in terms of data and minutes. Some, like certain T-Mobile plans, include an international package.
• Contact your cell phone service provider before departing about adding an international calling plan. Most carriers have flat daily rates which will allow your US-based phone to be functional upon arrival in a foreign country.
• Managing data while traveling internationally is important. Using WiFi when available and communicating through apps like What's App help you manage data usage while traveling.
• Learn how to make an international call BEFORE you leave. Consult your cell provider and check out the website www.HowtoCallAbroad.com.

The standard voltage of 230V in England and France differs from that in North America. Electrical sockets in England are Type G, which is the plug that has three rectangular pins in a triangular pattern. In France, outlets use plug type C which has two round pins. Given the various plug types encountered on this tour, you may wish to purchase a universal plug adapter which supports a wide variety of sockets/plugs. 

You should also check your electronic devices for voltage compatibility. Most of today's electronics (tablets, laptops, phone chargers etc.) are multi-voltage and will work worldwide, without a converter. Consult your owner's manual for further details.

• We suggest you read up on tipping culture in the various places you will be visiting so you can show your appreciation for any personal service provided with an appropriate gratuity.
• In London, most restaurants and pubs will include a service charge on the bill. If there is no service charge you should tip for good service. An appropriate amount would be 10-15 percent of the total. It is polite to round up your taxi fare to the nearest pound. And, if you receive excellent service at a hotel, a small tip is appreciated.
• In Paris, service is already factored into any restaurant price. However, it's customary to leave something small. If you receive assistance translating a menu or have special requests for the kitchen, consider tipping more.
• You may want to tip your WTT Tour Leader for an outstanding job. The amount is entirely a personal preference. If you'd like a guideline, consider $8-$10 per day. 

• Travelers are required to have a valid passport
• Passport cannot expire less than 6 months after your tour concludes
• Mandatory ETIAS (European Travel Information and Authorization System) registration for US and Canadian citizens has been postponed until 2025.
