Question 1

Who is this trip for?

Accepted Answer

This trip is for mothers and daughters who enjoy active, meaningful travel, beautiful natural settings, local culture, wonderful food, and the company of others who share their curiosity and sense of adventure. Daughters must be at least 18 years old, but there is no upper age limit. Both travelers should be open-minded, adaptable, and ready to embrace new experiences with a positive attitude.​The itinerary includes two days of e-biking, considerable walking, and an optional countryside hike, so good mobility and a reasonable level of fitness are required. Please reach out if you have any questions about whether the trip is right for either of you.

Question 2

What is the fitness level for this adventure?

Accepted Answer

This is a moderately active, multisport trip, and good mobility and a reasonable level of fitness are important.We'll spend two days exploring the Tuscan countryside by e-bike. The pedal assist makes the hills much easier, but you should be comfortable riding a bicycle for several hours, primarily on country roads and dirt paths, with plenty of stops along the way. A support van will be nearby if anyone would like a break from riding.​Our hikes are approximately 2–3 hours and are considered easy to moderate, with some uneven terrain and hills. Hiking is optional, and good walking or hiking shoes are recommended.​You don't need to be an athlete, but you should enjoy being active and feel comfortable walking, hiking, and riding a bicycle. Please reach out if you have any questions about whether the activity level is right for you or your daughter.

Question 3

Where do we fly in and out of?

Accepted Answer

Our trip starts in Florence and ends at the Rome Central train station, where you can catch a train to the Rome airport, or high speed trains back to Florence or other cities.

Question 4

How do exchange rates affect my trip price?

Accepted Answer

Prices are based on current exchange rates. The exchange rate at the time trip is released will be noted on the website and that will serve as the baseline for trip pricing.As a small business, I absorb normal currency fluctuations (up to about 8%). In the rare event of a larger shift, any necessary adjustment would be shared fairly between us and kept as minimal as possible. Full details are outlined in the Terms & Conditions and in the waiver you’ll sign at registration.

Question 5

Do I need an electrical adaptor?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you’ll want to bring a European plug adapter.Italy uses Type C, Type F, and Type L outlets and operates on 230V electricity. A standard two-round-pin European adapter will fit most outlets, although an Italy-compatible or universal adapter is the safest choice.Most phones, tablets, and laptops automatically accommodate the voltage difference, so an adapter is usually all you need. If you plan to bring a hair appliance, make sure it is clearly labeled dual voltage (110–240V), or use the hair dryer provided by the hotel. A plug adapter alone does not convert voltage.

Question 6

What is the group size?

Accepted Answer

There is a minimum of six and a maximum of fourteen guests in the group (plus the hosts). If sold out, you can be placed on a waiting list.

Question 7

Can I be matched with a roommate?

Accepted Answer

If you are traveling solo and are interested in sharing a room, we are happy to connect you with another guest who is also looking for a roommate, when possible. While we can’t guarantee a match, we will facilitate introductions so you can decide together if it feels like a good fit.If you’re registering on your own, you’ll initially sign up for a single room. If you later find a roommate, your registration and pricing will be adjusted. If a roommate match doesn’t work out, you’ll remain in the single room, subject to availability.If having a single room is essential for you, please reach out before registering so we can confirm availability.

Question 8

When should I book my flight?

Accepted Answer

Please wait to purchase non-refundable airfare until you receive an email confirming that the trip has reached the minimum number of participants and is officially running.Trips are typically confirmed once the minimum number of guests has registered, or no later than 90 days before departure for international trips and 60 days before departure for domestic trips.If you prefer to book flights earlier, we recommend choosing tickets that are refundable or easily changeable.If you trip has an internal flight not included in the cost (Patagonia), please do not book this flight independently. We will provide specific instructions once the group flight plan is finalized so everyone can travel together. If you prefer to use airline miles, please let us know in advance and we will do our best to coordinate.

Question 9

Do I need trip insurance?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All guests are required to carry their own travel insurance policy that includes medical coverage and emergency evacuation.

It is generally advisable to choose a policy with substantial coverage for both medical expenses and evacuation. Many policies provide $50,000–$100,000 in medical coverage and $250,000–$500,000 for emergency evacuation, but you should confirm what level of coverage is appropriate for your situation.

If your trip includes high-altitude hiking (such as Peru or Bhutan), you may want a policy that covers hiking at higher elevations. When purchasing insurance, it can be helpful to call the provider directly to confirm altitude limits and activity exclusions so there are no surprises.

Some travelers choose to purchase Cancel For Any Reason (CFAR) coverage for greater flexibility. If you have pre-existing medical conditions or are considering CFAR coverage, many policies require the insurance to be purchased shortly after your initial trip deposit in order for those benefits to apply.

Insurance policies vary widely, so please review the details carefully and confirm coverage directly with your insurance provider. LH Adventure Travel does not provide insurance and is not responsible for individual insurance decisions.

If helpful, a link to Squaremouth, a travel insurance comparison site, is provided at checkout for guests who wish to explore policy options. LH Adventure Travel may receive a small affiliate commission if you choose to purchase through that link, at no additional cost to you

Question 10

What happens if the minimum number of guests is not reached, the trip can't run, or I cancel?

Accepted Answer

Our small-group adventures require a minimum number of guests to operate (typically about 6 participants). If a trip must be cancelled because the minimum number of guests has not been reached, you will have the option to:• convert the trip into a private departure if possible (with adjusted pricing), or • receive a full refund of payments made to LH Adventure Travel.In the unlikely event that travel cannot occur due to circumstances beyond our control — such as natural disasters, government restrictions, political unrest, disease outbreaks, or other unforeseen events — LH Adventure Travel will work with local partners to recover as much of the trip cost as possible. Because many services are prepaid to local operators, refunds depend on the policies of those partners. Any funds recovered will be applied as a credit toward a future LH Adventure Travel trip, valid for one year.We recommend checking with your travel insurance provider to understand which situations may be covered under your policy.LH Adventure Travel is not responsible for additional expenses incurred by guests, including airfare, travel insurance, or other travel arrangements.All payments made to LH Adventure Travel are non-refundable. If you need to cancel your participation for any reason, payments cannot be refunded.If your cancellation is covered under your travel insurance policy, you may submit a claim directly to your insurance provider. LH Adventure Travel will provide any documentation required to support an insurance claim.

Question 11

What should I know about the itinerary?

Accepted Answer

This itinerary has been thoughtfully crafted to offer a rich and meaningful experience. However, details—including activities, accommodations, and team members—may be adjusted based on group preferences and the discretion of the tour operator to ensure the best possible trip.

Question 12

Do you offer CME/CE?

Accepted Answer

There are two opportunities for physicians to earn CME credits and one option for CE for other healthcare professionals, including dentists, nurses, nurse practitioners, pharmacists, physician assistants, social workers, athletic trainers, dietitians, chaplains, and other members of the healthcare team. Please click HERE for more details.

LH Adventure Travel has no financial interest, personal investment, or responsibility regarding Learner+ or the credits earned through their platform.

Question 13

How do you handle safety on your trips?

Accepted Answer

Your safety and wellbeing are our top priority. We work closely with trusted local partners in each country who know the culture, terrain, and logistics inside and out. If there are ever concerns about security, weather, or local conditions, the itinerary may be adjusted to ensure the group’s comfort and safety.

For added security, we require each guest to upload a copy of their travel insurance policy prior to the trip.

We also recommend enrolling in the U.S. State Department’s Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP) before departure. This free service allows you to receive important updates about your destination and helps the embassy contact you in case of an emergency. You can sign up here: STEP Program

Question 14

Are there any additional costs or logistics I should be aware of?

Accepted Answer

Most of your trip is fully taken care of as indicated on the trip website, but there are a few small items to be aware of.

For drinks not included on the trip, guests often decide to share bills and use an app called Splitwise to keep track. 
If your itinerary states that on the final day, one private transfer is included to the airport or train station, that is for the day listed. If you plan to stay longer, we’re happy to help you arrange your own additional transportation as needed.
