Covid 19 - traveling in 2020 : our precautions / onze voorzorgsmaatregelen

As Europe and in particular France and Italy are slowly opening up, we would like to share some precautions we took for our future tours with you:

​

• Clean / hygiene. We have face masks and desinfectants (for people and our car or minibus) available 
• Private tours: As we offer small private tours you can be confident that we can avoid crowded restaurants, tasting rooms, etc.
• Hotels and restaurants: All hotels and restaurants must and will follow the rules. Still we can recommend places where they clean  often and really give you space.
• Social distancing: As we travel with small private groups it is easy for us to avoid crowded places when tasting wines, have lunch or dinner and also visiting places of intrest in cities and villages.
• Cancellation policies. With all the uncertainties we keep on being very flexible with changes or cancellations. Postponing one of our tours booked via us or thru one of our partners can be done without any extra costs, even when you postpone into 2021 ! If necessary you can postpone your tour(s) more than once for free, because lockdowns and flight regulations can change. 

Nu Europa en speciaal Frankrijk en Italie, langzaam weer open gaan voor vakantiegangers, willen we u graag vertellen welke voorzorgsmaatregelen we genomen hebben:

​

• Hygiene. We hebben gratis mondmaskers en desinfectiemiddelen (voor uw handen en onze auto of minibus) beschikbaar.
• Prive tours: Omdat we kleinschalige prive tours doen kunnen we u rondleidingen aanbieden, waarbij we drukte in restaurants, proeflokalen en ook op historische plaatsen in dorpen en stadjes kunnen vermijden.
• Hotels en restaurants: Alle hotels en restaurants moeten natuurlijk aan de regels voldoen. Op verzoek kunnen we U adviseren over plaatsen waar bijvoorbeeld extra vaak wordt schoon gemaakt en/of waar u echt de ruimte heeft.
• Social distancing: Omdat we touren met kleine prive groepen is het relatief gemakkelijk voor ons om drukke plaatsen te vermijden bij onze proeverijen, bij lunch en/of diner en bij het bezoeken van de highlights in dorpen en stadjes.
• Tour cancel voorwaarden. Met alle onzekerheden blijven we zeer flexibel bij uw afzeggingen of wijzigingen.  De tourdata wijzigen bijvoorbeeld kan meerdere keren gratis. En U mag ook uitstellen tot in 2021. 

June 2020 - Traveling and touring to and in France - Reizen naar en in Frankrijk

After June 15 the situation will be as follows / Na 15 juni is de situatie als volgt:

EU citizens are allowed to travel free within Europe. So people from EU countries can go on a holiday within Europe and do (wine) tours. / Na 15 juni mag binnen de EU weer vrij worden gereisd. Dat betekent dat mensen vanuit Nederland vanaf dat moment weer in Frankrijk op vakantie kunnen en mogen (wijn) touren.

For people coming form outside of Europe, traveling in France is not yet possible. Expect a decision end of June / Voor mensen van buiten Europa wordt later in juni een beslissing verwacht over het open gaan van de grenzen.

Musea etc. are all open again. Outside of Paris bars and restaurants are also open, inside and outside on terraces. You have to keep at least 1 meter distance and wearing a facemask might apply./ Musea etc. zijn weer open. Bars, restaurants en terrassen eveneens; buiten Parijs mag u ook  binnen verblijven. U dient minimaal 1 meter afstand te bewaren. Zorg voor een mondmasker!

If you/we are allowed to (privately) tour again be sure that we have hand disinfectants and face masks available. We are (as always) touring with small private groups of maximum 8 people./ Als u/we weer kunnen touren, weet dan dat wij handdesinfectie middelen en mondmaskers beschikbaar hebben. Wij touren met kleine groepen van maximaal 8 personen.

Corona virus

The coronavirus outbreak has left people around the world wondering whether they should cancel or postpone pending travel plans.

Postponing one of our tours booked via us or thru one of our partners can be done without any extra costs, even when you postpone into 2021 !

If necessary you can postpone your tour(s) more than once, because lock downs and flight regulations can change. 

​

Please follow up on the (temporarily) restriction rules from your governments and local authorities. It is not only about your health but also the health of other people.

​

People cannot travel for a holiday into France from outside of Europe momentarily. Within France there is also a travel ban which will last at least to May 11  2020.

​

The situation after May 11 is described under here. If you need an explanation or translation mail us!

​

If you’re one of the many people feeling anxious about an upcoming trip, remember that while your decision to stay or go should always prioritise safety, that decision should be based on facts instead of fear.

​

Stay safe and healthy !
