Will you be camping (and carrying heavy luggage) or staying in accommodation along the way? if it's the former, take a small pack of moist baby wipes with you - they're great for soothing a sore posterior after a long day.

I'd avoid doing anything 'different' to the training rides you've done so far - for example, if your training rides have been in normal shorts without padding, and you haven't experienced discomfort, then I think it'd be a mistake to start wearing padded shorts on the first day of your tour (tempting as it might be) because they completely change the way the saddle feels, and change the pressure points.

Enjoy it! If you don't mind me preaching a wee bit, I think too many people regard the destination as their goal and aren't happy if they don't clock-up the 'right' number of miles on any given day. In my opinion, it's better to forget about mileage and enjoy the riding, enjoy being part of the landscape, enjoy the folk you meet - the whole experience of it.

Have a great trip.
