A Little Prep Goes a Long Way
Kylie's Travel Checklist & Guidelines
Heading to the snow, the races, the coast, a winery, or a scenic day out?
Here are our simple tips that will help your group enjoy a smooth, comfortable, and memorable experience.
Traveling is fun, but the safety bits are serious. Your comfort and well-being always come first.
Pack Smart, Travel Happy
Bring the Essentials
- A water bottle
- Sunscreen (yes, even in winter)
- A hat or beanie
- Comfortable walking shoes
- A warm layer: The coastal winds can surprise you…
For Snow Trips
- Gloves, waterproof jacket & pants
- Dry socks (trust us on this one!)
- Snacks for the road
- A small backpack for your gear
Safety Note: We can’t allow loose items rolling around the bus. Please keep bags zipped and stored safely.
Food, Drinks & On-Board Comfort
What You Can Bring
- Snacks
- Non-alcoholic drinks
- Small cooler bags
Important Safety Rules
- No glass bottles or glass containers: They’re unsafe on a moving vehicle.
- Hot drinks must have a secure lid. Spills can cause burns and injuries.
- No open alcohol on the bus: Save the celebrations for the venue.
Travelling With Pets
Dogs: Dogs may be permitted on certain charters, but prior consultation is required. This helps us ensure the comfort and safety of all passengers.
Service Animals: All certified service animals are always welcome.
Be Weather-Wise
Our tip: Check the forecast the night before, but be ready for anything. We’ll always keep you updated on conditions and adjust plans if needed.
Safety Note: If weather becomes unsafe (storms, high winds, snow, or road closures), we may modify the itinerary to keep everyone safe.
Stay Comfortable on the Bus
- Keep aisles clear
- Stay seated while we’re moving
- Let Kylie know if you need a comfort stop
- Bring any medication you may need
- Avoid strong perfumes (some passengers are sensitive)
Safety Note: Seatbelts must be worn at all times. We take this seriously — It’s the law, and it keeps everyone safe.
Group Travel Etiquette
- Be on time, or nominate a “Chief Timekeeper.”
- Bring your best playlist (Kylie loves a sing-along)
- Pack your sense of humour
- Take photos. Lots of them!
- Celebrate the little moments
- Enjoy the journey as much as the destination
Safety Note: Please follow Kylie’s instructions at all times — especially around roads, car parks, snow areas, and busy event sites.
For Snow Trips
Stay Warm, Stay Safe
- Wear layers — you can always take one off
- Keep gloves dry
- Don’t wander off alone
- Stick to designated snow play areas
- Watch for ice, it’s sneaky
Safety Note: Alpine conditions can change quickly. If visibility drops or roads become unsafe, we may adjust timing or routes.
For Race Days
Make It a Great Day Out
- Bring a hat & sunscreen
- Wear comfy shoes (you’ll walk more than you think)
- Keep your phone charged
- Set a meeting point for your group
Safety Note: Large crowds mean staying aware of your surroundings. Stick together and check in with your group regularly.
For Coastal & Scenic Tours
Enjoy the Outdoors
- Bring a warm, waterproof jacket (Cool Breezes even on hot days)
- Watch your footing on rocks and paths
- Stay behind safety rails
- Keep an eye on waves and tides
Safety Note: We avoid unsafe lookouts or tracks during high winds or rough conditions.
