We are going to Greece very soon...April 2 - April 15. How much do you pack and what do you pack? I feel like a little kid, but I thought I could get some good advice from everyone.

Thanks.

It would be helpful to know what sort of traveller you are, what kind of activities you enjoy, if you like to play "dress-up," what your budget is and what class of hotel you'll be booking. If someone suggests backpacker-style packing for someone planning to stay at 5* hotels it's a waste of everyone's time.

A simple way to work out what to pack is to look at a site such as weather.com - this indicates the temperature that you can expect. Then work out (either mentally or physically) very roughly what you'll be doing (beach/evening dress/sports/etc) and how often, and pack an outfit for each. Of course different items can be combined, and you should take this into account. As for how much - how many changes do you make daily? If I were in your position I'd be looking to change around three times each day: daywear, sportswear for gym/swim/beach, then something for the evening. However, you may want more/fewer changes.

Less is More. Pack half what you think you need. You can always buy thing when you are there.

Another consideration is how much laundry do you want to do while you are traveling.

A Swiss Army knife with a corkscrew.

ira, rdkr has the right idea, pack light. Get a Swiss Army Knife that already has a corkscrew!

But put that Swiss Army Knife in your check in luggage, not your carryon, or you will own it for long!

Gave a beautiful time in Greece! Lucky you.

Here's what you do. Take 1 rolling bag, and 1 largish soft bag that you can stuff your purse into for carryon. Pack for 7 days and plan to wash things half-way through. (Assuming you are female ..)

In roll-on:
5-7 dressy t-shirt type tops
1-3 overshirts or light sweaters to wear over tops
5 prs pants, shorts or slacks depending on your daytime plans
2 skirts or jumpers (or more, and fewer pants)
1-2 dress-up evening outfits. Maybe a nice scarf/wrap.
comfy daytime sandals
dressy evening sandals
7x undies, sox, etc
1-2 pr jammies
1 swimsuit, 1 cover, 1 smallish towel
sunscreen, sunglasses, sun hat
toiletries, medicine, etc
small umbrella
extra books, maps, etc.
A softside lunchbox containing a picnic
kit: corkscrew, cutting board and knife, ziplok bags, cups, towlettes, tablecloth, etc.
======================
Everything should match everything else, and nothing should wrinkle easily. If this is too much stuff, skip the things you can buy over there (sunscreen, picnic stuff, umbrella, etc).
========================
Not packed, but worn: 1 shirt, 1 sweater or jacket for warmth, 1 pr slacks, comfy walking shoes for every day, with nice sox so you can take your shoes off on the plane.
======================
In carryon bag: purse ($, Id, tickets, itenerary, contact numbers, passport, etc), toiletries & medicine for one overnight on plane. Travel books (1 tourguide, 1 novel), snacks, music, comfort stuff. Camera, film.

Now, what did I forget ....
