INGAMBA IS COMMITTED TO KEEPING YOU SAFE
Cleanliness has been a keyword since day one at inGamba. Our mechanics and soigneurs have decades of experience working for teams at the highest levels of professional cycling, where keeping riders safe and healthy is a fundamental part of the job. And as seasoned ex-pros, no one knows better than our guides how important hygiene is when traveling and riding in groups.
The whole inGamba team has a wealth of knowledge, training and hard-earned personal wisdom when it comes to keeping everybody free from illness, and in these uncertain times, we’re leaning on that know-how to make sure that we’re doing everything possible to make our trips the safest in the world.
SAFETY FIRST
GOING THE EXTRA MILE
We’ve always prided ourselves on going the extra mile with daily bike washes, spotless support vehicles and creating sanitary spaces for massage and treatment, but now we’re going even further. We’ve worked with government agencies and our friends in professional cycling to leave nothing to chance in creating our comprehensive new cleanliness protocols to insure your safety. And we are proud to say that our field staff of mechanics, soigneurs and guides have now all been vaccinated, which will help keep both them and our guests as safe as possible.
WHAT WE'VE DONE
OUR COVID-19 PROTOCOLS
In addition to being vaccinated, the inGamba team has all received enhanced health and safety training that takes into account the very latest advice on Covid-19 from governments and organizations such as the World Health Organization (WHO). That includes regular health checks for both our staff and our guests before and during each trip, as well as daily deep sanitization procedures on our vehicles, bikes, and at the properties we visit. And while our approach to hygiene and sanitation has always been second to none, our new enhanced standards are designed to not only keep you protected, but also to allow you to relax, safe in the knowledge that your wellbeing is our primary concern.
