Travel Insurance

As with any and all travel, we strongly recommend that you purchase a travel insurance policy in your home country that covers your cost due to cancellations. Though I’ve never had to cancel a tour, you may have to cancel your travel reservations in case of accidents, illness, interruption or anything else that may come up. We are not responsible and do not offer refunds for cancellations due to medical emergencies or any other reason. That’s why we strongly encourage you to purchase travel insurance to protect yourself.

Travel insurance covers any losses resulting from a cancelled trip such as (but not limited to) airfare, lodging, car rental, equipment rental and fees for attending our Explore With Spike adventure tour. Many policies will also cover elements of your trip like lost, stolen and damaged items, cancelled flights, medical emergencies, etc.

As a reference for travel insurance, this is usually my first stop:

After answering a few questions, this site will give you multiple insurance quotes side by side so you can compare different policies. The best policy is the “cancel for any reason” policy.

Some companies I’ve used and had a great experience with…

 
For some international adventures, medical insurance may be necessary. Please check with your health insurance plan to ensure that you are covered. Supplemental travel insurance can also cover medical expenses in most foreign countries.
