Travel Insurance In Nepal Discount


High degree of caution in Nepal due to the uncertain political and security situation.
Pay close attention to your security at all times and monitor the media and other local sources for information about possible new safety or security risks.

The resignation of the Prime Minister of Nepal on 4 May 2009 has increased political tensions and the security situation remains unpredictable.

Political rallies in many parts of Nepal have resulted in outbreaks of violence and the detonation of explosive devices. You are strongly urged to avoid demonstrations, political rallies and large gatherings throughout Nepal as they may turn violent. Demonstrations and bandhs (strikes) occur without notice and can cause major traffic disruptions and shut down all public transport.

Shortages of essential supplies (food, water, fuel, gas and kerosene for cooking) can occur with limited notice. Black out (or load shedding) periods can have a significant impact on services, including in major tourist destinations. Before travelling, check that your tour operator or hotel will be able to provide an acceptable level of service and security.

Extortionists continue to approach trekkers and climbers demanding 'donations' or 'taxes'. Victims have been assaulted, detained or threatened with violence until they pay.

Introducing Nepal Travel Insurance in Nepal

Wedged between the high wall of the Himalaya and the steamy jungles of the Indian plains, Nepal is a land of snow peaks and Sherpas, yaks and yetis, monasteries and mantras.

Mountain Adventures
Ever since Nepal first opened its borders to outsiders in the 1950s, this tiny mountain nation has had an irresistible mystical allure for travellers. Today, legions of trekkers are drawn to the Himalaya’s most iconic and accessible hiking, some of the world’s best, with rugged trails to Everest, the Annapurnas and beyond. Nowhere else can you trek for days or even weeks in incredible mountain scenery, secure in the knowledge that a hot meal, cosy lodge and warm slice of apple pie await you at the end of the day. Nepal is nirvana for mountain lovers. Other travellers are drawn here by the adrenaline rush of rafting down a roaring Nepali river or bungee jumping into a bottomless Himalayan gorge. Canyoning, climbing, kayaking, paragliding and mountain biking all offer a rush against the backdrop of some of the world’s most dramatic landscapes.
Temples & Tigers
Other travellers prefer to see Nepal at a more gentle pace, admiring the peaks over a gin and tonic from a Himalayan viewpoint, strolling through the temple-lined medieval city squares of Kathmandu, Patan and Bhaktapur, and joining Buddhist pilgrims on a spiritual stroll around the centuries-old stupas and temples that lie scattered across the Kathmandu Valley.
Further south lie Nepal’s wild and woolly national parks, where nature buffs scan the treetops for exotic bird species and comb the jungles for rhinos and tigers from the backs of lumbering Indian elephants. Whether you cross the country by mountain bike, motorbike, raft or tourist bus, Nepal offers an astonishingly diverse array of attractions and landscapes.
Travel Heaven
There are few countries in the world that are as well set up for independent travel as Nepal. Wandering the trekking shops, bakeries and pizzerias of Thamel and Pokhara, it’s easy to feel that you have somehow landed in a kind of backpacker Disneyland. Out in the countryside lies a quite different Nepal, where traditional mountain life continues stoically and at a slower pace, and a million potential adventures glimmer on the mountain horizons. The biggest problem faced by visitors to Nepal is how to fit everything in. Many people have spent a lifetime exploring the mountain trails of the Himalaya and the atmospheric temple towns of the Middle Hills, and they still keep coming back for more. Our advice is to pick a handful of essential experiences for your first visit and save the rest for trips two, three and four…


Travel Insurance In Nepal



These Are The Answers i have collected from Forum Asked By person interested in travelling in Nepal.

I'm travelling to Nepal with my fiancee in September (a quite budget trip), and we are thinking about, maybe, is not necessary to get a travel insurance, because actually we won't move so much (just Pokhara, Kathmanduand so on) and the insurance prices have increased a lot... What is your opinion? Can you advice me about that? What about health facilities in those cities? Thanx in advance for your replies!

IMHO to travel without Adequate health insurance is Madness
Let’s just say that you decide to go on a short trek and have an accident and need rescuing, Did you know for instance that the Nepali Authorities won’t put a helicopter into the air until they have checked that you have insurance to cover the cost !!

And if you were ever misfortunate enough to need treating in a Nepali Hospital (Although they Do Do their Very Best with the very limited facilities that they have to hand) you Could be in Desperate need of that Air Ambulance back home – But as you were a Cheapskate and didn’t bother with insurance, you would no doubt be left to cope best you could in Nepal !!!!!

This when you consider that my Full CasiVac High Altitude medical insurance costs less than 1/5th of my return flight is a No Brainer – Well at least it is to ME ?????

I have been to Nepal several times and have written up a lot of my personal experiences Including landing atKathmandu, how to get through customs and immigration Quickly, some ideas on Trekking, where to stay, eat, things to see and do + some tips on transport on
