G Adventures unveils Covid safety and wellbeing policy

Sunday, 08 Jun, 2020 0

G Adventures has unveiled a new ‘Travel with Confidence’ policy, which introduces new safety procedures across all future trips.

The policy is designed to ensure the safety and wellbeing of both travellers and employees and includes new measures relating to social distancing and hygiene.

"G Adventures has always run small group tours which, by nature, mean our travellers have more freedom and space, even before social distancing came into play," said G Adventures founder Bruce Poon Tip.

"We have always selected our accommodation, restaurant and food service partners based on their high standards and local roots and we are working closely with them to further optimise their health, safety and cleanliness procedures. This means our travellers can continue to experience these local gems, while feeling confident that their safety is being taken care of."

To support social distancing, those travelling solo and sharing a room will have the same roommate assigned for the entire trip wherever possible.

Travellers who want their own space will be able to take advantage of increased availability of solo rooms and more affordable ‘My Own Room’ rates.

Before starting their trip, travellers will be able to speak with G Adventures’ team of Global Connection Officers, who are available 24/7 on the phone to assist with any safety or health queries.

Any traveller feeling unwell in the lead up to their trip will be able to take advantage of the Book with Confidence policy, which provides the flexibility and freedom to delay until they are feeling better (terms and conditions apply).
