This trip was easy to pack for. No hiking, no swimming, just walking around eating pizza! So this post should be short and sweet.

We were only gone for 5 nights. We flew into Chicago and stayed one night, flew to Detroit and stayed another night, flew to NYC and stayed 3 nights, then flew home early the next morning.

Ultimate Pizza Crawl Packing List

  • 5 days’ worth of comfy clothes good for walking
  • Hoodie or sweater depending on time of year
  • Good walking shoes with socks
  • This backpack to avoid checking a bag – it’s got plenty of compartments and I’ve taken it on multiple trips
  • Wallet/Money/Cash/ID
    • Two of the pizza places we ate at were cash only
  • Medicine (Ibuprofen/Tylenol/anything else you need)
  • Travel-sized toiletries
  • Hair needs (brush/pick/comb/ponytails)
  • Cell phone and charger
  • Book/Kindle/Headphones for airplane
  • Laundry bag
  • Enough room leftover for souvenirs

That’s it, easy peasy!

No Vacation Time

With pizza as the main attraction, this trip can easily double as a working getaway. Just add your laptop to the list and adapt the itinerary as necessary! This same bag even has a combination lock on it to keep your laptop safe.

Fancy Night Out

If you want to add in a ritzy restaurant or just want to feel extra, toss in a more formal outfit just in case. Most hotels have an iron to press out those travel wrinkles!

Packing for this trip can be as low-key as the trip itself. Keep it light, comfy, and pizza-ready!
