Before the Tour
We can provide a checklist that can help you on the preparation of your luggage. Please remember that each tour has its own specific list of equipment needed.
We mainly organize off-road tours, so depending on the kind of tour a MTB or Gravel bike is necessary. As we always say, it is not necessary a last generation bike to ride one of our tour. Of course the bicycle must work perfectly in all its part: brakes, gear, suspension. this will allow you to fully enjoy the tour. Avoid to leave with a new and  never used before saddle.
Ten days before departure is best to make a complete check with your bike mechanic.
Bring your own bike is always the best solution.
In some country (i.e. Italy, Spain) we could be able to offer rental bike, but this is option is not guaranteed. Please contact us for more information.

General
We recommend the companion people to join us especially on those tours where the vehicles can follow the same route of the bikers (i.e. Oman, Ethiopia). Others tour don’t have this opportunity, as the vehicle must drive on different route.
We like to work with groups between 6 and 15 people, but in some tours we accept bigger groups, with a maximum of 20 people.
Our tour are not self guided. Depending on the size of the group there will be at least one expert guide that knows the environment and that will ride with you, making sure that everybody can enjoy the experience at their best.
We can organize tours for private groups in different dates and also customize the tour to your necessities.
