We encourage all participants to sign up for the All-Inclusive Insurance Plan because most U.S. insurance companies do not provide adequate coverage for people traveling abroad. Our recommended plan provides comprehensive protection for you should something unexpected happen before or during the tour. In the event of an emergency, you will have 24- hour access to English-speaking emergency service, no matter where you may be.
Tour Cancellation and Interruption Insurance
A refund of the Program Fee if you need to cancel from or interrupt the tour due to reasons of family emergency, serious injury or illness requiring hospitalization, financial hardship due to unexpected job loss, jury duty, military call to active duty or severe damage to home.
Medical and Accident Insurance
Coverage of up to $35,000 for hospital bills, doctors’ fees and medical transportation for illnesses or injury while on tour, as well as travel and accommodation expenses for a family member to be with you while hospitalized in the event of a life-threatening illness.
Baggage and Property Insurance
Coverage for baggage, cash, airline tickets, travel documents and valuable property in cases of theft or delay, including emergency on-tour cash reimbursement of up to $300 within 24 hours of a theft.
24-hour Emergency Assistance
Round-the-clock handling of claims and assistance from English-speaking insurance representatives during your tour.
