As others have said, many (most?) modern electronic chargers are dual-voltage compatible, so all you need to do is to convert the plug.
It is generally okay to branch a single adaptor into a couple of 110vac plugs, assuming that the power loads are small (such as typical phone & laptop chargers). This is the basic idea behind using a power strip, although I'd probably skip using an actual power strip because they're bulky & might have some internal safety circuitry that will pop a fuze/breaker if used on 220VAC.
So what I choose to carry instead to do this is a short indoor extension cord, such as one of these: this is good enough to put two chargers onto a single adaptor plug. FYI, there used to be a really short (six inches!) version of this style, but it seems to be discontinued. See Note at the end
You could also try one of those "octopus" style cords, but these are usually pretty bulky.

As I mentioned above, there used to be really short (6 inches!) versions of the indoor extension cord .. I originally found them years ago at Radio Shack. I've been looking for a new source for something similar and I recently found the Boston World Jet Power Multi Socket Extension Plug ... but buyer beware: while this is 95% of what I wanted, it has one feature which prevents me from recommending it. Specifically, the plug design on this product is not { one wide / one narrow slots } to be compatible with modern NEMA Stanard 2-prong plugs which have a wide/narrow for polarization ... but is just { two narrow slots } and this means that a modern plug will not physically fit into this cord (I specifically tested this - - it is a no-go, as the white plastic part of the plug is a hard & inflexible plastic). While this isn't a problem with Apple chargers, for example, it is a dumb limitation that has the potential to bite you in the posterior when you least expect it. Save your money and just buy a 6 foot indoor extension cord instead of this product.
