Beat the heat
Plan archaeology visits early morning or late afternoon; carry SPF 30+ and a wide-brim hat to handle strong sun at open sites.
Dress for access
Wear modest, lightweight clothing and a scarf for entry to mosques and conservative sites to respect local norms and speed checkpoints.
Stay hydrated
Carry a refillable water bottle and drink frequently—queues and open-air ruins can make days longer and hotter than they feel.

Sleeper trains and cruise timetables are fixed; keep printed tickets and be at pickup points early to avoid missed departures.
