Covid Related Policies

Pedalers recommends guests be fully vaccinated against Covid prior to traveling, we no longer require it. But additional vaccination requirements may be imposed by the destination country. It is the duty of travelers to check any requirements which need to be fulfilled before travel, which includes transit destinations, on the destination country's government websites. Being denied boarding or entry due to failure to meet the country's rules is considered a voluntary cancellation and no refund.

Pedalers believes that the wearing of face masks and observing social distancing aids in the reduction of the spread of Covid19.

Wearing facemasks is suggested during the following tour activities:
•   While riding in any support vehicle or public transportation used during the tour
•   During group meetings, orientation, hotel check-in, etc

Guests are asked to maintain social distancing:
•   At rest stops
•   At group meetings
•   While in public transportation hubs awaiting departure

Please note that in some destinations local rules may impose additional conditions. Your guide team will update you during orientation of any changes or added local restrictions.

As a health precaution due to the current global situation with Covid19, Pedalers will not pair up single travelers to share a room or tent for the foreseeable future. Guests traveling by themselves will be required to book a Single Room and will be liable for the Single Supplement Fee. Single travelers joining with a friend for the tour may share a twin bedded room, but need to signup together on a single booking (they can pay separately).

Pedalers has always asked guests to bring their own helmets for cycling tours, as we feel they can not be adequately cleaned between uses. This policy is now mandatory and we also require guests to bring their own cycling waterbottles to use during the tours. Guests without either of these can purchase those items once they reach most of our destinations, but we suggest looking at home first so as to have a bigger and better selection to choose from. Use of helmets IS required on all cycling tours or during the cycling portion of multi-sport tours.

Guests also need to bring their own facemask to wear. We suggest cloth ones that can be washed and reused, rather than a box of disposable masks.

To allow adequate social distancing in our support vans during transfers or when people would like to break from cycling, we now limit all scheduled departures to 8 guests maximum. Parties booking a private date can request a larger group allowance.
