Due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) global pandemic, much has changed across the travel landscape in the past year. In response to this, we are continually monitoring and evaluating our protocols, to make sure all travelers needs are met. Please review these safety updates and brand guidelines, which reiterate the importance of the safety and well-being of adventurers. We look forwarding to seeing you out on the road again soon!
Tour Safety
When you travel with Gutsy Women Travel, you're traveling with a brand who has your back.
From our network of local offices and access to top-notch health care throughout our trips, to our highly trained Local Leaders and safety guidelines, we're always planning ahead to make sure you have the best trip possible. Here are some things you can expect from a wellness perspective while on a Gutsy Women Travel small group experience:
Small Groups
With never more than 16 passengers per departure, our small group sizes ensure your experience will be flexible, unique and inspiring. Most importantly, it also means you don’t have to be worried about crowding into packed passenger buses, so you can sit back and enjoy the ride.
Health Screening
Travelers are required to let us know if they have tested positive within 14 days of departure or are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms at any time during the trip. They must also declare if they’ve been exposed to someone who has tested positive for COVID-19 within 14 days of departure.
Healthcare Availability
Should it be required while on tour, our full health and safety protocols will be enacted. Our Local Leaders will assist with access to appropriate medical care and recommended testing as well as communicate with local health authorities to ensure the health and security of the group.
Worldwide Partner Protocols
Our world partners are at the ready with the most up to date regional and municipal standards for supporting our adventures.Our network of local offices have created operation standards based on the guidelines and recommendations from the World Travel and Tourism Council’s (WTTC) Safe Travel protocols.
Travel Insurance
We strongly recommend that all travelers purchase Travel Insurance, either through us or another provider. With the ever changing travel landscape, we believe that protecting your travel investment, no matter how large or small, is paramount.
Safety & Wellness Gear
We know travel can get a little wild which is why we want to assure you that on every Gutsy Women Travel departure, there will be plenty of face masks and hand sanitizer available. Adventurers will also be required to social distance when possible and wear a mask when they are not able to follow the 6 foot distancing guidelines.
