Local Benefits
2/21/2009
Below are just a few of the many advantages of using a regional operator such as CTTC.
Guaranteed Departures
A clear benefit of being local is being able to keep our costs low while providing the a top tier service, unsurpassed by larger bike tour companies based outside of where trips are run. Low overheads allow us to guarantee departures on all trips - no minimum for a small surcharge only & with all the creature comforts you'd expect.
We hear it first
The other advantage of working locally is that we not only provide the highest grade accommodation and gastronomic experiences as a luxury bike tour operator - we do it at a fraction of the cost. We also have our ear to the ground on those hidden places first, often years before others catch on, but let's keep that between ourselves.
Providing the best routes
With our R&D lab on our doorstep so we are always able to ensure that our trips are up to date with the best rides out there. If a new rail for trail is built or a whole section of a ride is under construction, we find out before you get on the road to provide you with best ride everyday of the trip.
Benefiting the community
Perhaps the best thing about travelling with a regional operator is that you directly benefit the communities where you travel. We work very closely with local governments to support projects in the areas our trips take us, such as going to local schools and offering an afternoon instruction on bicycle safety or committing funds to the restoration of a local monument visited by our guests and of importance to the National Heritage.
Preserving our Heritage
CTTC works with National Agencies to make sure we have all the licenses to travel with you. These licenses are not just pieces of paper, they help protect our National Parks and Monuments that we so much enjoy but not all operators value equally.
