Our COVID-19 Policies, Protocols & Precautions

The PRE and During Trip Protocol

We have worked hard to ensure that our trips incorporate COVID-related safety precautions based on the World Health Organization and U.S. Centers of Disease Control and Prevention guidelines. We continuously monitor updates and adjust our policies accordingly. Here’s a brief overview of our pre- and during trip safety protocols.

PRE-TRIP:

  • All travelers will receive a health questionnaire to fill out right before the trip to ensure that all participants are healthy before departure.

DURING THE TRIP:

  • The use of face masks, especially when in crowded or enclosed spaces and when traveling by car is strongly encouraged. In some destinations, like Colombia, face masks are mandatory by law.
  • We’ll travel by private vehicle as much as possible, maintaining social distancing practices and safety protocols while on board including the required use of a mask and hand sanitizer. At the start and end of each tour, the vehicle will be deep cleaned and sanitized.
  • Our guide will have hand sanitizer on hand at all times and it will be readily available at all hotels and restaurants on the itinerary, but we do encourage you to pack your own as well. There will be daily temperature checks each morning before the day’s first activity.
  • All visits to restaurants and sites will be coordinated for off-peak hours.
  • We’ll do our very best to accommodate any single room upgrade requests if available at the property.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does LA Travel Chicks require a COVID-19 test to travel? 
We do not require travelers to show proof of a test unless it is directly required by the country’s government. If that is the case, we will make sure to advise you well in advance so that you are fully prepared. In the case that travelers show symptoms while on the trip, they may be required to get tested.
Can I do a single room upgrade?
Yes, single room upgrades are available for you to have your own space and rules. You can check the availability with your travel coordinator.
Will I have to wear a mask?
We strongly encourage the use of masks to help prevent the spread of the virus. It will also make you feel safer and protected from getting infected. In places and during activities where physical distancing is possible, it won’t be necessary to wear a mask. In some of the countries we travel to it is a government requirement to wear masks while in public areas, planes, and transportation.
Will insurance cover me for COVID-19?
Most, if not all, insurance companies won’t cover you if you have “fear of travel,” meaning that you will not be reimbursed for cancelling your trip due to fear or worry about how COVID-19 may impact your trip. However, if you experience delays in your flights due to travel restrictions or if you contract the virus before or during the trip, you might be eligible for Trip Cancellation or Interruption coverage. We are not an insurance company and unable to provide you details of the coverage. We highly recommend talking to your insurer.
What will be the size of my group?
We limit the size of our groups to 14 people to guarantee a personalized and enjoyable trip that will allow for you to meet like-minded travelers and make new friends. This also allows us to maintain social distancing and intimate experiences.
