Travel Insurance Nepal


Travel Insurance is compulsory on all of our tours, and links to some suggested providers are given below. We do not sell travel insurance ourselves.

Our partners at WorldwideInsure offer policies suitable for most of our tours (UK residents / EU residents / if you would like any more information or are unsure about how to arrange travel insurance if you are not a UK resident.

After you book with us you will receive details of a Stand Alone Safe Seat Planwhich we issue for your financial protection - this is not a travel insurance policy - please see our Financial Security page for details.

It is your responsibility to ensure that your insurance provides sufficient cover appropriate for the activities included in the tour. You must provide us with the details of your insurer, your policy number, and the policy emergency telephone number before departure (if you do not provide us with these details, then you will not be allowed to join the tour, and no refund will be due).

Your insurance must cover you for the following:
Medical Expenses & Repatriation

We also strongly recommend that you obtain cover for the following:
Cancellation & Curtailment
Personal Effects, Baggage & Money
Travel Delays, Abandonment & Missed Departure
Personal liability (group travellers)


Activities:

Most travel insurance policies will fit most of our holidays. However, many will not cover the altitudes gained on some of our trekking tours. Please check the tour factsheet for details of the activities involved and the maximum altitude gained on your trek and ensure your policy will cover these.

We are happy to recommend our partners at WorldwideInsure for policies to cover trekking over 2,000m (UK residents / EU residents / Worldwide residents). Their normal policy covers trekking up to 4,000m, with extra supplements available if you will travel up to 5,000m or 6,000m.
