Matters needing attention in traveling to the United States

1. Most hotels in the United States do not provide toothbrushes, toothpaste, slippers and other related toiletries, so you need to prepare them yourself.

2. The specifications and voltage of power interface in the United States are different from those in China. In order to facilitate the charging of mobile phones, computers and other items, it is necessary to prepare power adapters and other related equipment before going to the United States.

Because American Customs has strict restrictions and regulations on the entry of agricultural products, please pay attention when preparing food. Do not bring fresh or preserved animal and plant products such as meat, eggs, vegetables and fruits into the country. If you bring any food, you must declare it. If you bring any food, it is recommended to tell the tour leader before entering the customs for reference.

4. If you have any travel emergency medicines, please carry them in parcels as far as possible, preferably with English names, and store them in a unified way, and inform the tour leader before entering the customs.
