Your safety has always been our number one priority, and that will never change. We recognize that the decision to travel is a personal one, and what matters most is that you feel comfortable doing so. One of the advantages of traveling with us is our small group size. AdventureWomen trips make it easier to physically distance. In addition, we have taken the following precautions to help you feel safe while you are on a trip. We hope this will help you in deciding whether travel is right for you at this unusual time.
AdventureWomen’s COVID-19 Vaccination Policy
Because we care about your safety and the safety of the people in the destinations we explore, AdventureWomen has implemented a COVID-19 vaccination requirement for all guests traveling with us. We also strongly encourage guests to receive a booster shot in addition to the original vaccination series, as more and more destinations are requiring a booster in order to enter the country. Our Trip Managers will work closely with guests ensure that:
All women traveling with AdventureWomen are fully vaccinated and proof of vaccination (photo of CDC card) must be submitted to AdventureWomen no later than when sending final payment. Women will be required to sign updated Booking Conditions and COVID release forms in order to travel with AdventureWomen.
Women who either fail to provide proof of vaccination or provide falsified vaccination documents will not be allowed to travel and will forfeit any deposits/payments made to AdventureWomen at that point.
Keeping You Informed
In addition, we are diligently monitoring what’s happening in the world and how it impacts your trip. The current pandemic is no exception. We’ll communicate any pertinent information related to your departure as soon as we have it, so you’re always in the know.
Closer to departure (about three months prior to your trip), we will touch base with updates and outline the entry and testing requirements as we best know them at that time.
Certain states and countries have instituted new measures such as COVID testing requirements or specific restrictions on travel. We’re keeping a close eye on regulations that will affect our departures, both on domestic and international trips, but it is your responsibility to stay abreast of and adhere to the regulations for your destination. Learn more by visiting the CDC, embassy, and airline websites for your specific destination.
24/7 Support
Our office is staffed for emergencies, and we’ll be here to provide assistance for you if needed. An AdventureWomen Ambassador joins every trip and is prepared to support your expert guide in managing logistics around any necessary adjustments.
What To Know Before You Go
Arriving Healthy
Many countries require a negative COVID test prior to entry. If you are experiencing COVID symptoms or obtain a positive COVID test result within 2 weeks prior to your trip, we ask that you contact us to discuss your options.
Travel Insurance
We highly recommend that you purchase travel insurance. AdventureWomen values you as a guest, and we want your trip to be enjoyable and stress-free. We encourage you to shop around to find the insurance company and policy that best suits your needs. In the age of COVID, we especially recommend looking into Cancel For Any Reason (CFAR) policies.
Face Coverings & Hand Sanitizer
We recommend that all guests bring their preferred face covering and suggest one for each day of your trip.
On The Trip
Accommodations
We’ve carefully selected the accommodations on our trips because of their high standards of quality. All our ground operators abide by enhanced safety protocols for cleaning and physical distancing. We resumed our roommate rotation in June.
Vans/Transportation
We strongly recommend – even when not required at the destination – that all guests wear masks while inside fully enclosed vehicles on the trip.
Daily Check-Ins
Your AdventureWomen Ambassador and expert guide will check in with you on a regular basis to ensure everyone is feeling safe and healthy. If you are experiencing any COVID symptoms, we ask that you let your guide know immediately.
As you are aware, this is a very fluid situation, and global policies and requirements are changing all the time. Please be assured that we will update you if any of our guidelines change. Your health and safety are paramount to us here at AdventureWomen.
