You will be required to plan and deliver the cycling trail on 1 day of the weekend. You will provide information in the form of interesting facts and stories of Bengaluru city to our travellers/participants.

On the day of the trail you will be the person introducing the Unventured and our way of travel, the city of Bengaluru, all information in the form of stories about the trail for the day and what is unique to that experience. Depending on the size of the group; each trail will be assisted by 1-2 tour leaders. With a full sized group a second tour leader will focus on the route, time and helping participants with their cycles etc…

You will be the main person leading the trail and will follow a general route and story line. The storyline can however be tweaked based on the interest of the travellers/participant group. Taking initiative to keep the group engaged and making the trail a fun and informative experience is the primary goal. A brunch/breakfast and or lunch will be arranged as part of the trail.
