They can also help with Health Declarations, Embassy Registrations and even photos. If you're from the US, they provide a One-Stop Shop to renew your Passport securely and error-free.

ACCOMMODATION
Hostelworld is the number one resource for researching and booking hostels. If you want to stay somewhere other than a hostel, either use Booking.com or Agoda.com as in our experience they consistently return the cheapest rates.

TRAVEL INSURANCE
Travel insurance can
protect you against unexpected illness, injury, theft, and cancellations.
