Frequently Asked Questions
What is the average daily mileage?
- We will ride an average of 40-60 miles per day.
- On most days there will be options to extend or to shorten the core routes.
How long are your tours?

How many tandems go on trips?
- We limit our tours to 15 tandems or 30 individuals. We have found this an ideal group size.
Do I need a tandem with S&S couplers?
- No, we can accommodate your full sized tandem, but a coupled tandem is your best option if you are flying to the tour. Be aware that you will most likely be charged to fly with your non-coupled tandem, however. Please contact us us for information on our experience in flying with a tandem.
What travel documents do I need?
- You will need a passport for international tours. If you don't currently have a passport we recommend that you give yourself plenty of time to receive or renew a passport. We would hate to have you cancel at the last minute just because you don't have your passport!
What's the price of the trip?
- Typically our 2-week international tours are approximately $4,200 to $4,800 per person.
- Domestic tours average $2,800 to $3,600 per person for 1 week.
What's the usual tip for guides?
- We get this question often. The industry standard is 5% of the tour price per guest.
- Our guests often ask how much they should tip, so we suggest an amount, based upon this 5% industry standard.
