We have a Plan A and Plan B for 2021 and we have been working hard to ensure that, even if Covid holds the world ransom a little longer, we have great travel adventures available to you.
PLAN A
We are hopeful that, internationally, things may return to normality sometime next year and that overseas travel resumes. All our Odysseys in 2021 are ready and raring to go, so whenever travel resumes we will be there for you. The hotels are locked in, routes ready, documentation in line and guides booked! Furthermore, we have developed a Covid health and safety plan modernising our day to day management on tour.

If international travel doesn’t resume as hoped, we are ready! We have been working at great lengths on some amazing local ‘Escapes’ to give us all exciting trips to look forward to. In this climate, smaller, shorter trips, travelling locally while we can, is what we can do. So let’s do it Bike Odyssey style – luxury, exceptional, adventurous!
Plan B involves escaping by bike locally (and within travel bubbles….) Our escapes are shorter getaways 5 – 10 days long, perfect for escaping our lives however they may be affected – time-wise or financially – at the moment. The cycling options on each trip are varied in length and difficulty, they are designed to suit riders of any level, and we spend mostly 2 nights in hotels to reduce our covid footprint.
This week we focus on Plan B for Australia and New Zealand
….next newsletter we will reveal our Plan B for the Americas and Europe.
From Australia to New Zealand and France (yes France-ish! – baguettes and croissants, red wine and cheese!) here are our local and accessible Escapes.
