Do you provide discounts for families?
When booking family tours, discounts may apply for the third or fourth person in the room based on their age and the available room types. You can check for available discounts on the tour page or during the quote stage.
Do children travel for free?
On some tours there are reductions/gratuities for young children in a room with two adults.
Enter the date of birth of the children traveling with you in the quote and the reduction/gratuity is automatically calculated.
However, there may be an additional charge for a baby cot to be paid on the spot at the overnight facility, check this in the 'To pay on the spot' section of the tour.
My child's birthday happens to be during the tour: how do you calculate his/her age?
We consider the child's age at the end of the tour.
When you calculate the quote, enter the date of birth of the children travelling with you, and the system will automatically apply the correct price, depending on their age.
I'm not sure whether my child can manage all the stages: what happens if he/she is too tired to cycle?
Family tours are for everyone, with itinerary and mileage designed especially for the little ones and with stages away from traffic. If you're unsure whether your children can handle all the stages, you can rent accessories such as child seat and follow-me tandem where available. For those who don't pedal yet, there are child trailers and rear seats.
On some tours it is also possible to shorten the stages by taking public transportation. Check it out in the tour itinerary.
Do you rent e-bikes also to children/teenagers?
It is not possible to rent electric bikes to children: the sizes are for adults only and they are heavy bikes that require special care.
If you want to rent the electric bike for a teenager, we need to check if the right size for their height is available.
Can I rent accessories for children with an e-bike?
For safety reasons this is not possible. Seat, trailer and follow-me tandem can only be mounted on unisex touring bikes.
I want to use my bike and rent only the accessories for transporting children (car seat/carriage...): can I do this?
Unfortunately, no: for compatibility reasons you can only mount rented accessories on rented bikes.
I have my own child-carrying accessories (child seat/child trailer...): can I mount them on the rental bikes?
Unfortunately, no: on rental bikes you cannot mount your own children's accessories, you must rent them.
