Travel sickness tablets. A blanket or something warm for any night time travel. A map so you can keep track of where you are, also nice to mark off the places you have been. Phrase book. Contact details of all the hotels your staying at...
Camera and CHARGER, and memory card (and spare) if it is digital
Phone and CHARGER (if you are taking one)
Neck wallet. I now wear a neck wallet all the time while I am away with passport in it, plus credit/debit cards. That way little chance of me being mugged or losing my wallet out of back pocket (or out of handbag if you are a lady)
Contact details for travel insurance company, also contact details for bank etc if you lose cards.
Pen and paper
Any medication.

Remember to turn off the mobile data access on your phone as you leave the UK - unless you've got a cheap deal for data roaming - it'll cost a fortune otherwise.
Just use wifi to connect to emails and interweb, when you get a chance in hotels/bars etc.
I usually turn off voicemail too (or set it to give out a message but not record any) - you can spend loads of pennies picking up messages you don't want/need.

I would take as well as money ,passports travel insurance and electrical adaptors,some pills for a upset stomach and if you like biscuits a couple of packets of chocolate biscuits because the biscuits over there are awful,nothing like a day sightseeing to brew a cup of tea and have a couple of chocolate biscuits.
