Frequently Asked Questions.
What’s this gonna cost me?
is freewheeling free?
Cost and Payment
To set this up for you, we charge a 15% service fee.
You give us your budget and we’ll work within it. We’ll provide you with an estimate before you pay anything - that will detail out the cost of airfare, lodging, any extras you want us to surprise you with, as well as our service fee.
You give us the go ahead and provide payment for the agreed amount through our secure site. We’ll do the booking and send you confirmations (with details hidden!) and a link to your secret itinerary.
Can I tell you where I do not want to go?
Location Preferences & Your “DO Not Fly List”
We understand that there are some places you simply cannot or will not visit. Whether it be for spiritual, personal safety, or because you’ve already been there a million times, we absolutely respect your wishes to avoid certain places. We’ll ask you for a list of specific places you don’t want to go before we book anything.
Where will we sleep?
Lodging
Most freewheelers will stay in hotels or airbnbs that we’ve personally tested out. If we get the sense that you’d like to try out an alternative stay, we’ll look for a treehouse, yurt, or furnished camper for you. You’ll be comfy.
How will we get around while we’re there?
Rental Car, Bikes, Public Transportation
We’ll give you the option to have a rental car booked ahead of time. Many freewheelers like to play this part by ear — depending on where they end up, they may take rideshare/taxi, public transportation, walk, or rent a bike.
We will make sure you have safe transportation options available to get easily and comfily around while you’re at your destination.
How will we get there?
Transportation Options
Most of the time, we’ll book you a flight to your destination. If you’re opposed to flying, your budget doesn’t have space for flights, or you’d simply like to try something new, there are lots of other ways to go on an adventure.
If you’d prefer ground transportation, let us know. We’d love to send you freewheeling by train, boat, car, or in a fully furnished camper van.
Will everything be planned out?
Itinerary
We’ll book your transportation (flights, train, and/or rental car) and your lodging.
We’ll make reservations for 1-3 meals out if you’d like.
The rest is up to you.
Can I get a hint?
I want to know what to pack…
“Degree of Surprise”
Most people prefer the element of TOTAL surprise.
If that’s not you, let us know, we can let you know if you need to pack a parka or sandals.
What will we do?
Activity and Relaxation
Most freewheelers like to find their flow of activity and relaxation on their own once they arrive somewhere.
If you’d like us to, we can reserve or book one activity, tour, concert, or spa service for you if you’d like. Let us know what you’re hoping to experience.
Can my kid freewheel too?
Family Friendly Freewheeling
What better way to bond with your kiddos than to experience some surprise and explore new places together! Let us know if you’re planning to bring anyone under the age of 18 on your freewheeling adventure so we can tailor the experience to be easy, secure, and fun for everyone.
