Travel Prep: We Get You Ready Before You Go

Good trips start with good prep, especially if it’s your first big trip in a while. Travel Prep is how Two Travel Gurus helps you feel organized, confident, and ready long before departure day. You’ll get clear guidance on documents, packing, flights, money, and safety, tailored to the small‑group trips we host for adults 45 and older.

Step‑by‑step travel preparation for adults 45+—from documents and packing to airports and arrival.

What’s Included in Our Travel Prep

Our goal is simple: no confusion, no last‑minute panic, and no “I wish someone had told me that.” Travel Prep pulls together the tools and support you need in one place.​

  • Document & checklist guidance – What you need for international travel (passports, IDs, confirmations, insurance) and when to gather it.​

  • Packing lists & how‑to guides – Destination‑specific suggestions, luggage tips, and a master packing list you can customize.​

  • Airport & flight tips – Practical advice on timing, security, Global Entry / Mobile Passport, and what to keep in your carry‑on.​

  • Money & safety basics – Simple guidance on cards, cash, ATMs, and common‑sense safety habits for travelers 45+.​

Travel Prep Designed for Adults 45+

You’re never just handed a confirmation and left on your own. Well before your trip starts, we’re in touch with reminders, tools, and ways to get to know your group.​

  • Pre‑trip emails & timelines – Step‑by‑step reminders for payments, documents, packing, and key dates.

  • Pre‑trip calls or Q&A sessions – Time to ask questions live and hear answers other travelers find helpful too.​

  • Group chats or socials – Opportunities to meet fellow travelers online (and sometimes in person) so you recognize faces at the airport or hotel.​

Support Before You Ever Leave Home

Many of our travelers are in their late 40s, 50s, and 60s and want clear, practical information—not jargon. Travel Prep is written in plain language and paced so you can work through it without feeling rushed or overwhelmed.​

  • Focus on comfort, realistic walking, and energy levels.

  • Tips for medications, must‑have items, and backup copies of important documents.​

  • Extra reassurance if it’s been a while since you last traveled or if this is your first international trip.​

We take the guesswork out of everything; you just pack your bags and show up.  You even get to meet the rest of the group prior to leaving, we have travel meetings so you can get clear and accurate information.

Helpful Travel Prep Tools You’ll Have Access To

You’ll be pointed to specific tools based on your trip and destination, including:​
