2. Lonely Planet travel books
It impossible to tell how many tourists have been saved by the Lonely Planet’s travel guide collection, but if we were to hazard a guess, a lot would be still a gross understatement. No matter how much of a human map you think you are, purchase the Lonely Planet.

3. Travel wine bag
Depending on your drinking range, this could be considered both a luxury and a necessity. The travel wine bag equips the weary traveller with access to ice bags, two glasses, a corkscrew and –of course- a lovely bottle of wine to take wherever you please.

4. Noise cancelling headphones
Although it may not be a part of experiencing nature to bring headphones, it is safe to say that during some stage in your travels, some noisy fellow passenger may get to you. It is good to have these ready for such an occasion.
