Wow,
Red Rolling's list is about as good as you can get - but he should have prefaced the list with "if you are comfortable with" and then noted that the exception is the voltmeter. You want to have that even if you don't know which end to hold... If you need help in that area you may be able to engage a native guide.
The only things I would actually add to his list would be wraps of combination wrenches (SAE and MM) because you can't always get a socket on what needs to be tightened and a largish adjustable wrench just in case...
Other than that, if you are really going to go traveling, try to get all the service documentation for everything that the coach is made of. There have been times that I have helped others that were in minor trouble and he could not find anybody that knew enough to figure out the problem. One of said had a library of documentation, and we were able to diagnose the problem and order parts.
