Fitness levels, pricing, inclusions, and how the Leader Program works

The Tour Experience
What is included in the $4,900 price?+
Everything: airport transfers, 7 nights at the VIBE House (luxury lodging in Andalucia), all breakfasts and dinners, local transport, cultural day activities, daily laundry, heated pool access, VIBE jersey, swag bag, professional mechanic, support vehicle, 2–3 ride guides, rental bike option, and GPS navigation files for every stage.
What is NOT included?+
Flights to/from Spain, travel insurance, personal spending, lunches on the road (typically €10–20/day at local cafes), and any personal bike upgrade fees.
What fitness level do I need?+
VIBE tours offer four fitness levels: L1 Mellow (30–50 mi/day), L2 Moderate (50–70 mi/day), L3 Challenging (70–90 mi/day), and L4 Mega (90+ mi/day with significant elevation). E-Bike Adventure is also available for assisted riding at any level.
Can I bring my own bike?+
Yes. You can bring your own bike (bike bag transport assistance available) or rent one from VIBE. Rentals include a high-quality road bike fitted to your measurements.
For Leaders
What is the Founding Beta Partner program?+
A small cohort of experienced cycling leaders who give product feedback in 2026 and lead a tour in 2027. Founding Partners permanently lock in "Founder Economics" — $1,200 per guest beyond 8, up to $12,000 per trip. No upfront fees and no obligation to lead.
How do leader earnings work?+
Recruit your first 8 paid guests and your own trip is fully comped (zero cost). Every guest beyond 8 earns you $1,200. Maximum payout is $12,000 per trip (at 18 guests total). These earnings are paid after tour completion.
What happens if I can't fill 8 spots?+
At 9 months pre-departure, if fewer than 8 guests have confirmed, VIBE opens your tour to the public to help fill remaining spots. Your tour can still run — you just may not have your trip comped unless 8 guests confirm.
How does the Tour Builder wizard work?+
Complete a 5-step setup: choose your destination, tour type, fitness level, preferred week, and tour name. VIBE instantly generates a branded tour page at vibetours.co/tours/[your-tour-name] that you can share immediately.
What does the Leader Portal include?+
Real-time dashboard at vibetours.co/account showing: Tour Status Badge (Draft → Private → Confirmed), Live Payout Tracker, Guest Progress Bar, Availability Heat Map for all 32 Spain weeks, full Guest List with payment status, Survey Tool to gauge demand, and CSV export.
Bookings & Payments
How does the $100 deposit work?+
Guests reserve a spot with a $100 fully refundable deposit. No credit card commitment beyond that deposit until the tour officially confirms. If the tour doesn't reach 8 guests, all deposits are refunded in full.
What is the early-bird discount?+
Guests who deposit by the early-bird deadline save $300 off the standard price ($4,900 → $4,600). The deadline varies by tour; your leader will communicate it when the tour page launches.
When is full payment due?+
Full payment is due 90 days before the tour departure date. A payment plan may be available — contact VIBE directly for details.
