Covid-19

Here is our commitment to your safety

Private Driver-Guide

Our professional drivers use ‘hands-free’ microphones for commentary (foam covers replaced constantly); our drivers will have access to and use of gloves and face masks.  Gloves may be used by your driver to handle passenger luggage stowed in luggage spaces.

 

Contact-Tracing

Whether it be multi-day tours or simply a day-tour, our GPS-locations data together with itineraries comprising information such as locations, businesses and attractions visited, rest breaks – cafes, public restroom facilities will be held by the company and available for immediate release to authorities at all times. 

 

Social Distancing as and when required

Whether you’re individually part of a larger travel group, travelling with a companion or part of a family in a mid-sized group – you have our assurance the current social distancing seating plan required to the Ministry of Health will be adhered to at all times.

 

As is the case on all our multi-day tours, there is a seat rotation policy to ensure every person experiences the view from either side of the coach, and “has a turn in the front seat!”

Advanced Hygiene

The coach or bus allocated to your transfer or tour has been thoroughly sanitized 48-hours prior to your boarding using Air Ozonation.

For your hygiene and safety, further measures include:

* On-board hand sanitizer supplied

* On-board restroom facilities (on select fleet)

 

No Judgement

Wish to wear a personally supplied mask – no problem!

 

Covid-19 Cleaning & Sanitization

 

Air Ozonation - WHAT IS OZONE??

 

Ozone is 3 or more OXYGENS O3, O4, O5, O6

When most people think of ozone, they picture the layer high in the earth's outer atmosphere that protects us from the sun's ultraviolet rays, but this bluish gas, which sometimes can be detected as a fresh smell after a thunderstorm, is actually a valuable tool with a variety of down to earth uses. Ozone gas (03) is a naturally occurring tri-atomic form of oxygen (02) that is formed as sunlight passes through the atmosphere or when streaks through the air. It can be generated artificially by passing high voltage electricity through oxygenated air (corona discharge), causing oxygen to break apart and recombine in the tri-atomic form. Because oxygen naturally seeks its normal state, ozone is an unstable, highly reactive form of the gas. Ozone is effective as a disinfectant at relatively low concentrations and does not leave toxic by-products similar to those related to chlorination.

 

Some quick ozone facts:

Ozone is "active oxygen" - an ozone molecule consisting of three oxygen atoms.

Ozone is healthy and environmentally safe.

Ozone is created in nature from oxygen in the air by ultraviolet rays of the sun or by the corona or electrical discharge during a lightning storm. The Ozone layer in the atmosphere protects the earth from deadly radiation and there is a small amount of ozone in the air we breathe.

Ozone has a clean, fresh scent often noticed after a rainstorm.

As an oxidizer, ozone is 500 times as powerful as chlorine and 3,000 times as fast at killing bacteria and other microbes

Ozone is a powerful oxidiser and oxidises hydrogen sulphides, iron, manganese and most chlorinated hydrocarbons and eliminates soaps and oils.

Ozone is a natural purifier and destroys bacteria, viruses, cysts, yeasts, moulds and mildew and fungus.

Ozone is a bi-product of oxygen, it does not leave any chemical taste or smell, it will not cause any personal discomfort or irritation.

Ozone is the alternative water purifier to traditional chemicals such as chlorine and bromine and keeps the water fresh, clean and sparkling clear

Ozone is not a carcinogen (like the chlorine and chloramines formed in your spa with chlorine use) and will not irritate, dry out or leave a chemical film on your skin; or damage and discolour your hair The first commercial use of ozone was in a municipal water system in 1906. Ozone is now used by a wide variety of industries worldwide, including wastewater plants, water parks, zoos, aquariums, food manufacturing, wineries and water bottling as well as commercial and residential swimming and spa pools.

 

Our Air Ozonator

The unit we use has a powerful 20 gram output that is suitable for disinfecting, and removing odours in large areas up to 600 sqm. It utilises corona discharge ceramic plate technology for durable and effective use. The central air-conditioning circulating air evenly disperses the ozone out to the entire area to achieve disinfection and sterilisation.  This ozone air purifier kills bacteria, viruses and will oxidize chemicals and VOC's. Proven effective for removal of chemical residues from homes that have been used in the manufacturing of methamphetamine known as P labs.
