Cancellation:
If you cancel 180 days prior to your tour departure, you will receive a full refund of any monies paid.
Cancellation between 179 days-45 days from the tour departure date, you will receive a refund of 50% less any bank fees, credit card fees and 250 euro admin fee.
Cancellation less than 45 days from tour departure date=no refund.
Changes:
You may change to a different tour more than 180 days from departure. You will pay the difference if the new tour is more expensive. There is no guarantee you get the same bike that you originally reserved. From 180-45 days from departure a 25% change fee (based on the new tour price) will be applied. We will try to accommodate you as best we can; however, room & bike availability may make it impossible to honor your change request. Under 45 days from departure there is little chance you can make a change.

BEFORE YOU DEPART
- If you are crossing several time zones to go on tour, take the effects of jet-lag into account.

- Plan accordingly: show up with adequate margin of dealing with jet-lag.
- If your flights are cancelled due to weather, or other and you miss the departure you will miss the tour.
- If your baggage gets lost and you do not have your gear, you will not be able to depart unless we happen to have gear that fits you.
You can exchange currency for Euros prior to departure just to have some cash.
You can withdraw Euros from bank machines using your ATM or credit card. Check to see if your bank will charge you for foreign withdrawals ahead of time. Certain banks will not charge a fee provided you withdraw from a certain foreign bank ATM.
Exchanging money at the airport is possible, but you will pay a fee and not get the best exchange rate.
Yes you can ship us your gear.
There are a number of companies that offer suitcase shipping services, or you can use a traditional shipping company like FedEx, UPS, DHL. Not an endorsement, but many guests have used: https://www.sendmybag.com/ and seem to be content with their service.
