Payments and Cancellation Policies
At the present time we only accept payment by check or money order. We pass on a savings to you in the form of a lower trip price by not using a 3rd party. A deposit (we will advise you of the amount based upon your tour) payable to Cycle New England should accompany the form. We are holding a tentative reservation with the B&B until deposit is received. After receiving your reservation form and deposit, we will send you a confirmation. The balance of the tour payment is due 30 days prior to the tour start date. If you are reserving a tour within 30 days of the tour departure date, payment in full is due.
All cancellations must be submitted in writing via e-mail or letter. Cancellation fees will be assessed based upon the date we receive the written notice.
Refunds will be given, less a 10% total cost of trip cancellation fee, provided that written cancellation is received 30 days prior to the tour date. After that time any monies paid are forfeited. We recommend trip cancellation insurance in case of personal or family emergency. Please note that we do not make any refunds for any unused portion of your trip.

Trip Fee
We provide you with lodging referrals (booked directly by you at our special rates), detailed maps and instructions, a daily itinerary with sightseeing narrative, and lots of helpful advice! If you would like us to provide services such as catered dinner, airport transfer, luggage transfer or museum passes, these can be added a la carte.
Please note that our prices are published as a total for 2 persons, and reflect double occupancy in one room. Prices for a single can be offered for all of our tours upon request.

Accomodations
The B&B's used in our self-guided tours are the best in the region. We have become friends with many of the innkeepers, sharing a love to be hosts and representatives for our special area. All are wonderfully preserved historic buildings reflecting the Colonial and Victorian periods in New England.
Meals
Hearty breakfasts are included in most of our packages. On the self-guided tours we provide you with a list of our favorite local spots. We know that sometimes you want a picnic lunch and other times the restaurant stop is a welcome break. Instead of deciding where you will eat, we have left that choice up to you.
Bike Rentals
We believe that you experience the most comfortable multi-day tour on a bicycle that is familiar to your body. Therefore, we encourage our cyclists to use their own bikes and are happy to advise you on how to get it to the starting point of our tour. If you prefer to rent a bicycle we are glad to assist you in that.
Specific Trip Information
When we receive your reservation and deposit, we will confirm with an e-mail including some logistical information. This will contain directions on how to get to the starting point of the tour, information on the area you will be touring and local contact information. Once we have your final payment, 30 days before your trip departure, we will send you the detailed maps, daily itinerary with sight-seeing narrative and a list of local events happening during your stay. We always welcome your e-mails or calls if you have any questions or concerns not addressed in our communications.
