These terms and conditions apply when you book an adventure tour or rider training course with Ride Nordic AB. Some terms apply to all our activities, while others apply only to adventure tours or rider training courses. Where the terms differ, this is stated below.
These terms and conditions become part of the agreement when the booking becomes binding.
You can book an adventure tour or rider training course using the booking form on our website. Bookings can also be made by email or telephone.
Once we have received your booking, we will send you a confirmation that your place has been provisionally reserved, together with information about the booking deposit. The booking deposit must be paid within the period stated in the confirmation.
The booking becomes binding once the booking deposit has been paid within the specified period.
The booking deposit is SEK 10,000 for tours with a total price below SEK 50,000 and SEK 20,000 for tours with a total price of SEK 50,000 or more. The booking deposit must be paid no later than 3 days after booking.

Changing to another date, tour or training course is considered a cancellation and a new booking. The same terms and conditions therefore apply to rebookings as to cancellations.
We plan our tours carefully, but weather, road conditions, decisions by authorities, availability and other circumstances may require us to adapt the tour arrangements.
Ride Nordic reserves the right to make minor changes to the tour programme and arrangements. This may include changes to routes, road choices, daily programmes, activities or other practical arrangements.
If Ride Nordic needs to make a significant change to any of the main characteristics of the tour before its start, you have the rights provided under applicable package travel legislation.
Ride Nordic has the right to cancel an adventure tour if fewer than 8 participants have booked the tour. If the tour is cancelled due to insufficient participant numbers, you will be notified no later than 20 days before the start of the tour.
Ride Nordic also has the right to cancel an adventure tour if it cannot be performed due to unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances. In such cases, we will inform you without undue delay.
If Ride Nordic cancels the tour, all amounts you have paid for the tour will be refunded no later than 14 days after the package travel contract has been terminated.
Ride Nordic may adapt the programme, exercises and structure of a training course based on factors such as weather, ground conditions, participant skill levels and other circumstances affecting the delivery of the training.
Ride Nordic has the right to cancel a rider training course if fewer than 6 participants have booked the course. If the training course is cancelled due to insufficient participant numbers, you will be notified no later than 14 days before the start of the course.
In circumstances that Ride Nordic could not reasonably have foreseen or avoided, the training course may need to be cancelled at shorter notice.
If Ride Nordic cancels a rider training course, all amounts you have paid for the course will be refunded no later than 14 days after the course has been cancelled.
To participate in Ride Nordic’s adventure tours and rider training courses, you must hold a valid driving licence that entitles you to ride the motorcycle used.
You are responsible for ensuring that you have the riding experience and physical ability required to participate safely. If an activity requires specific previous experience, riding skills or physical ability, this will be stated in the information for the relevant tour or training course.
You must follow instructions given by Ride Nordic’s tour guides and instructors, as well as the safety rules applicable during the activity. Ride Nordic has the right to stop a participant from continuing to ride if the participant fails to follow safety instructions or, through their actions, poses a safety risk to themselves or others.
Alcohol must not be consumed, and participants must not be under the influence of alcohol, during any part of the day when motorcycle riding takes place. This applies regardless of the legal alcohol limits for driving in the country where the activity takes place. Narcotics or other substances that impair the ability to ride safely are also prohibited in connection with motorcycle riding.
For adventure tours, you are responsible for having valid travel insurance that covers motorcycle riding and the activities included in the tour.
For rider training courses, you are responsible for having adequate insurance cover that includes motorcycle riding.
You are responsible for checking the scope and any limitations of your insurance cover.
Ride Nordic does not offer cancellation insurance. We recommend that you check your cancellation insurance cover before booking.
You are responsible for your personal equipment and belongings during the tour or training course.
When a motorcycle is included in an adventure tour or rider training course, you are responsible for the motorcycle during the period in which it is at your disposal.
You may be liable for damage to the motorcycle that occurs while it is at your disposal. Any liability for damage will be assessed based on the circumstances of the individual case.
Your liability for damage to a Ride Nordic motorcycle is limited to a maximum of SEK 40,000 per incident. Normal wear and tear resulting from normal use is not considered damage.
If you have booked and paid for the Damage Waiver, your maximum liability for damage to a Ride Nordic motorcycle is reduced from SEK 40,000 to SEK 0 per incident, with the following exceptions:
Headlight: Damage caused by stone chips.
Rims: Damage caused by hitting a stone, kerb or other obstacle that results in the rim requiring repair or replacement.
For these types of damage, you are responsible for the actual cost, up to a maximum of SEK 40,000 per incident.
However, if the headlight or rim is damaged as part of an accident, the damage is covered by the Damage Waiver in the same way as other damage to the motorcycle.
Ride Nordic’s motorcycles are covered by compulsory third-party motor insurance in accordance with applicable law and insurance terms.
If you cause damage that results in Ride Nordic’s third-party motor insurance being used and Ride Nordic is charged an insurance excess under the applicable insurance terms, you may be required to reimburse Ride Nordic for this cost.
Any such insurance excess is separate from your liability for damage to Ride Nordic’s motorcycle and is not covered by the Damage Waiver.
You have the right to transfer your booking to another person who meets the terms and requirements applicable to the tour.
If you wish to transfer your booking, you must notify Ride Nordic in writing as soon as possible before the start of the tour. Notice given no later than seven days before the start of the tour will always be considered to have been given within a reasonable period.
Ride Nordic has the right to charge a fee corresponding to the actual costs incurred as a result of the transfer.
You and the person taking over the tour are jointly responsible for any outstanding balance for the tour and any costs arising from the transfer.
Your booking is financially protected. Ride Nordic has a travel guarantee in accordance with the Swedish Travel Guarantee Act. This means that you have financial protection for payments you have made if package travel cannot be performed due to Ride Nordic’s insolvency.
For us, the travel guarantee is a natural part of the security and peace of mind we want to provide when you book an adventure tour with Ride Nordic.
More information about the travel guarantee and how to apply for compensation is available from the Swedish Legal, Financial and Administrative Services Agency (Kammarkollegiet).
Flights to and from the destination are not included in the tour price unless expressly stated otherwise. Flights are therefore normally booked and paid for by you separately.
Ride Nordic is not responsible for delays, cancelled flights or other changes relating to transport that you have booked separately and that is not included in the package travel contract.
If such a change causes you to arrive after the start of the tour, you are responsible for any costs incurred in joining the tour.
If you discover a fault or deficiency during an adventure tour or rider training course, you must notify Ride Nordic without undue delay so that we have an opportunity to try to resolve the issue.
For adventure tours, Ride Nordic is responsible for ensuring that the package is performed in accordance with the agreement. In the event of a lack of conformity, you have the rights provided under applicable package travel legislation.
Ride Nordic will also provide appropriate assistance if you experience difficulties during package travel.
If you require assistance or wish to make a complaint, you can contact Ride Nordic using the contact details provided on this page.
If we are unable to reach an agreement regarding a complaint or claim, you may refer the dispute to the Swedish National Board for Consumer Disputes (Allmänna reklamationsnämnden, ARN) for review. Ride Nordic follows ARN’s recommendations.
