Update on Covid-19

Dear friends, 

the next cycling season 2022 is at our doorstep and it is now possible to book your next adventure with us. We have already received many bookings for the coming year and we are confident that soon we will be able to enjoy the cycling holidays again as in the past.

However, the current situation still requires special attention from us in order to avoid an increase in infections. For this reason, participation in our trips is subject to possession of a Green Pass obtained with two doses of vaccine, proven cure from Covid-19 or a valid molecular PCR test. The Green Pass will be checked at the start of the tour. Its non-validity will result in the exclusion of the participant from the booked trip and the loss of the amount paid.

In the event of restrictions for Covid-19 (travel ban, border closure, ban on gathering), any eventual cancellation of the trip by the operator (Yubiketours) will not result in the customer losing the amount paid which will be converted into a Voucher for use on a future trip.

We advise you to inquire about what could affect your trip with regards to departure-destination-return. Before leaving, we recommend that you check this official EU website:

Travel in safety
Yubiketours makes masks and hand sanitizing gel available to all customers. Your bikes will be sanitized before use. The structures with which Yubiketours collaborates strictly follow the Covid-19 Security Protocols. We ask our customers to wear PPE in all indoor areas, to maintain a distance of at least one meter during guided tours and outdoor tours, and to wash and disinfect their hands frequently. We also ensure that all staff members wear the necessary PPE. Should anyone in the group experience symptoms during a tour, we will work directly to address the emergency, cancel / reschedule the tour.

We wish you all peaceful and safe travels. We hope to see you on two wheels with us soon!

July 2020

Dear Friends, 

With Europe open to in and outbound travel, we are happy to announce that we resume our activities as of July 1st, 2020. The Covid-19 pandemic has us taken by surprise and some never thought it would have such a big impact. We have had difficult times in the past months and we look forward to regain our ‘normal’ (bike!) life.

This said we all know the situation still calls for social distancing when we travel and at the same time to be more conscious of your fellow travelers and the environment. Please be aware that there is still an ongoing situation where regulations can change or are updated. This is something we will be monitoring regularly. We recommend that you inform yourself about what could condition your trip from your original point of departure to your destination and your return. Before you leave you can check this official EU website:

reopen.europa.eu

Self-guided tours
For the remaining departure dates of 2020 we will offer some of our tours in self-guided mode with departure dates on every Saturday starting 1st of July so you can decide to leave alone, in couple or close group of peers whenever you want.

Guided tours
All our departure dates for 2020 guided tours will be on request with immediate effect. In this way they will be open only for small preformed groups (6 or more participants) and you can choose your dates and also your company or bike buddies, families, close friends. Starting 2021 we will accept individual bookings as usual.

Yubiketours provides all customers with masks, hand sanitizer and your bikes will be sanitized before and after each use. The structures with which Yubiketours collaborates closely follow the Covid-19 Safety Protocols. For the safety of all, we ask our customers to wear PPE in all indoor areas, to maintain a distance of at least two meters (6 feet) during visits and outdoor tours and to wash and disinfect hands frequently. If one of our customers is experiencing symptoms during a tour, we will work directly to deal with the emergency, cancel or reschedule your tour.

We wish you all healthy and safe travels. Hoping to see you soon on two wheels with us!

May 2020

Being a small family business, we truly care for everybody that touches our life doing what we love. At this moment we hope that all of you are well and taking care of yourself and the ones around you. A special thought goes to all of you with whom we’ve shared magnificent cycling adventures and to all those who were planning to do so in the coming time. The memories of pedaling among the tulips, the beauties of Italy, the colors of the French land, the stunning natural lanscapes and the sunsets over the sea accompany us in this moment. Yubike continues to work from home, taking care of the necessary changes to be made to the program scheduled for 2020 and preparing for the new 2021 season.

The present situation constrains us to modify our program and we will update you as it develops also for those who work with us, partners, resellers, boats, hotels and other instances. 

Like many tour operators, we are also subject to comply and adjust to regulations not only in The Netherlands but also from other countries where we operate. As of now, departures are not available until the end of June and we will watch the situation day to day. We are contacting all clients who have booked a bike tour with us, doing our utmost to find the solution that best suits everyone's needs. Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any question or doubt concerning your trip. 

We send you all our sincere wishes that you keep fit and put health in first place. Don’t let any virus attack your dreams, dream on, hoping to see you soon with us!

Micaela and Carlos
