• On most days there will be options to extend or to shorten the core routes.

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!

• Typically our 2-week international tours are approximately $4,100 to $4,600 per person.
• Domestic tours average $2,000 to $2,500 per person for 1 week.

What's the usual tip for guides?

• We get this question often. You should tip as you feel is appropriate.
