Should I get travel insurance and what is the cost?

Trip Cancellation, Trip Interruption and Medical Insurance is required. This is a mandatory requirement from suppliers in Africa – proof of insurance must be provided before bookings are confirmed. It is your personal responsibility to ensure you have sufficient insurance coverage for the entire duration of your trip.

Your Africa Specialist will be able to assist you. Note that cancellation fees are charged by our suppliers and are beyond our control. Insurance should cover you for costly cancellation penalties, trip interruption and missed flight connections. Travel insurance also offers you protection in the event of illness or accident while abroad. Certain activities, such as hot-air balloon rides, may require additional coverage.
