You must have insurance to cover you against
medical expenses and repatriation. Please ensure
your insurance covers all the activities you
will be participating in, including trekking,
mountain biking, climbing and white-water
rafting if applicable.
A travel insurance policy is vital with
emergency evacuation coverage. Most general
insurance covers you against sickness while on a
trek & not cover for emergency evacuation, which
could run into many thousands of dollars if

time, and perhaps life.
