security of our travelers. Together with our in-country partners, we closely monitor the situation in each of our destinations, adapt our policies in accordance with the latest public health recommendations, and stay in close communication with our travelers during their journey. Below are some of the ways we are responding to the new realities of travel.
ExPANDED PROTOCOLS FOR PEACE OF mIND
At every step of the process, we’ve expanded protocols to ensure traveler confidence and protection.
In the planning phases, we’ve adopted flexible booking terms and extended final payment deadlines. We’ve made adjustments to itineraries to minimize time in high-touristed areas. On days where we do visit high-traffic areas, we plan to go at off-peak hours or visit an alternative location. upon request, we also offer travel protection, including Cancel for Any Reason (CFAR) coverage, through our insurance provider.
In the field, we’ve worked closely with our in-country partners to develop enhanced health and safety measures for sanitation, distancing, and mask use. Our in-country group leaders receive enhanced training on safety guidelines in addition to food-handling safety. In addition to face covering, washing hands and frequent use of hand sanitizer are simple and effective ways to prevent the spread of coronavirus. We revisit our policy and adjust as we monitor local situations and public health protocols. As always, we strive to make your experience in the field enriching and memorable.
SmALL GROuPS, OuR SPECIALTY
We have always operated small groups with private transportation to minimize impact and maximize engagement. But we also recognize the growing importance of traveling within a “bubble.” We’re offering expanded travel itineraries for private parties, be they families, friends, or affinity groups, who seek a self-contained travel experience together. With an expert guide and private driver exclusively in service of the group, this allows for a more personalized experience in addition to limiting contact with others outside the party.
