FAQ
Choose a policy covering every country on your itinerary, your full travel dates and your planned activities. For remote islands and mountain routes, check emergency medical treatment, evacuation to a suitable hospital and repatriation. Check coverage limits, the excess and exclusions, including restrictions connected to official travel advisories. Before paying, ask the insurer to confirm that your exact itinerary is covered.
Not always: a standard policy may exclude these activities or cover them only under specific conditions. Check trekking altitude limits, diving depth limits and any requirements for qualifications or an instructor. Ask whether search and rescue and helicopter evacuation are covered separately. Give the insurer your itinerary and activity details; a general sports add-on may not cover everything you plan to do.
Requirements depend on your passport, destination and transit countries. Before booking flights, check passport validity, visas or electronic entry authorisations, transit rules and whether you need proof of onward travel or accommodation. Some routes also require permits for protected areas or trekking. Verify current rules with official immigration or consular sources and ask the operator which permits they arrange and which documents you must obtain yourself.
There is no single best season for this collection: choose dates for the specific region and activity. For islands, check rainfall, winds, sea conditions and boat access; for mountain routes, check trail conditions, temperatures and seasonal closures. A beach holiday and a surfing trip to the same country may suit different months. Ask the operator which parts of the itinerary depend on weather and what alternatives are available.
There is no universal vaccination list for these destinations. Entry requirements and health recommendations depend on the countries you visit or transit, your itinerary and your health. Check official entry rules and destination-specific travel-health guidance, then consult a clinician, ideally four to six weeks before departure. Bring the full itinerary so they can advise on vaccinations, mosquito protection and any other precautions relevant to your trip.
Agree your arrival time with the operator before buying tickets. An overnight stay before departure can provide a useful buffer after a long flight, particularly if the group leaves early or continues by boat or domestic flight. Sparse connections may require a larger buffer. For high-altitude routes, check the acclimatisation plan separately: an extra night before the tour does not replace a gradual ascent. Confirm how to join the group if your flight is delayed.
Compare the included and excluded items on the specific tour page. Depending on the programme, additional costs may include international or domestic flights, visas, insurance, permits, transfers outside the group schedule, meals and equipment hire. Check single-room supplements and optional activities too. Keep a separate reserve for unexpected nights or transport changes; do not assume these expenses will be reimbursed by insurance.
