2023 Travelers
Please fill out our Traveler Questionnaire – a simple Google form – to share some more info about your preferences and requests. Our tours are small and personalized and we appreciate any info you provide.
Please read the letter linked below for our latest thoughts and requirements regarding travel and COVID. Note vaccination against COVID-19 is required to travel with Onward.
Onward will snail mail luggage tags and pre-travel notes (including arrival and departure logistics, a traveler directory, and packing notes) one to two months before your tour.
At that time we’ll also remind you of any Covid testing requirements that might apply and encourage you to download WhatsApp (we use this international messaging app to communicate on tour).
A week before your tour, we’ll email a detailed daily itinerary for your reference and hand out a final hard copy when your adventure commences.
We recommend that you purchase a travel protection plan to help protect you and your travel investment against the unexpected. You may also have trip insurance through your credit card. We can assist with general questions but to enroll or get specifics, contact Travelex directly. Please use Onward’s location number 32-0704.
Please review Travelex’s COVID policies. In a nutshell, it does cover you if you or a family member contracts COVID before or during the tour, but it does not cover global events (i.e. a travel ban) or cancellation because of fear of travel. Read more here: www.travelexinsurance.com/covid19.
We really like the Chase Sapphire Preferred or Chase Sapphire Reserve for a travel credit card. It’s very easy to redeem points, you get access to airport lounges around the world, no foreign transaction fees, trip insurance, etc! We have no incentive for recommending this, just a helpful tip!
