TRIP LEADERS POSITION

This is not a job. Expect this to be an extended vacation.

The most visible and important role at ABT is the one played by a Trip Leader. If you love to meet new people, intensively like history & culture, have a passion for cycling and are a natural leader, this maybe your calling.

Leaders will be necessarily upholding the legendary service and attention to detail that we are famous for – this means proactiveness in problem solving and reacting effectively to resolve situations.

In a day, a Trip Leader must be able to change many hats, depending on the need of the hour. The day can start as early as 6am, sometimes ending past midnight. The day might include, wrenching on the bike to creating gourmet picnics and speaking with confidence on the local culture. From a biking point of you, the leader is supposed to lead the trip from front and ride with guests all the time.

As challenging as being a Trip Leader may sound, the rewards are monumental. It entails leading a unique and enriching life by meeting a diverse set of people, travelling to various parts of the country and not being bound by a cubicle.
