Travel Insurance

You need travel insurance to participate in any trip conducted by Expert Kilimanjaro Trails. It is a wise thing to have travel insurance because it covers you against unforeseen circumstances. Your trip is a valuable investment, so it is a wise thing to protect it against cancellation, delays, interruptions, and unforeseeable expenses. We strongly advise that you obtain travel insurance immediately after booking your trip with us.

Standard travel insurance covers the following:

• Trip cancellation
• Trip interruption
• A death in the family
• Loss of employment
• Lost or delayed luggage
• Pre-existing medical conditions
• Medical evacuation and repatriation
• Flight delays, cancellations, or missed connections
• Emergency medical conditions(Injury, illness, or other medical conditions)
• Terrorism

Your travel insurance should at minimum protect you against trip cancellation and trip interruption; this can be useful should you need to cancel your trip due to circumstances such as sickness, emergencies, or training injury.

Your Insurance should also cover high-altitude trekking (do not confuse this with mountaineering or mountain climbing which is not covered by most insurance providers) and medical evacuation and repatriation costs. If you reside in the USA, we recommend Travel Guard and If you reside outside the USA we recommend World Nomads.

You must be able to provide proof of insurance to participate in mountain climbing tours organized by us.
