Protecting our Guests & Guides
Travel always has risks & now more than ever the decision to travel or not is a personal one. For those who are ready to travel again & get back in the saddle we’re taking extra precautions to make sure we’re doing everything we can to keep our guests & guides safe during their Eat Sleep Cycle tour.
Cleanliness
Hotels
We work with carefully selected hotels who already pride themselves on spotless rooms & public areas. We ensure that all the hotels & guesthouses we work with are following the new protocols for social distancing & cleanliness. We also prioritise working with small, boutique hotels ensuring our guests contact with as few people as possible.
Food Preparation
We will continue to serve our trademark picnic lunches on tour. Our team will be wearing masks & gloves during all food preparation & will follow all normal food preparation & hygeine guidelines.
Equipment
Our vehicles, bikes & any equipment like GPS devices & pumps will be sterilised every day.
Travel Companions
We love to run private trips for individuals, couples & groups of friends and family – we do not have a minimum group size.
We will continue to run our scheduled tours as we know many of our guests love to travel solo and ride with new people. Again, we keep numbers to a minimum – many of our scheduled tours run with groups of 6 people or less.
Being Prepared
Healthy Travel
When you arrive on tour your guide will give you a quick contactless temperature test – anyone with a temperature of over 38 C / 100 F will not be allowed to participate in the group tour. Guests are asked not to travel if they feel unwell.
Support & Advice
We are here to support you during your trip & our team in the office & guides out on the road are on hand 24/7 to help navigate any unexpected situations. All of our guides are First Aid & CPR trained & speak the local language of wherever you’re travelling. We have a protocal to follow should anyone fall ill on tour.
We will also let you know ahead of time if your destination country requires proof of a negative Coronavirus test to gain entry at the time of your tour.
Face Coverings
All guests are invited to bring their own face mask on tour. Whilst we do not ride wearing face masks, it’s great to have mask on standby at all times. We also carry hand sanitizer on tour & suggest all guests bring their own too.
Meals
During our tours we dine in small local restuarants & request a table outside whenever possible & when the weather permits.
