Before purchasing any policy, you should be satisfied that the policy meets your specific requirements. If you have any questions or wish to see the full details and terms and conditions please contact us. If you wish to purchase our insurance at the time of booking, your policy certificate will be automatically sent with your booking confirmation.

It may be that you are required to disclose known medical conditions of such people prior to cover being issued and you must be aware that failure to disclose such information will prejudice your position. Our booking form incorporates a declaration in this respect. Property Claims: these are settled on an indemnity basis Ð not on a Ônew for oldÕ or replacement cost basis, unless otherwise stated in the certificate.

Where there is an excess, you will be responsible for paying the first part of a claim.

Hazardous Holiday Activities: the certificate may not cover you when you take part in certain hazardous activities. However, the certificate will cover you for any activities included in the itinerary for the holiday being booked from this brochure.

read your insurance certificate carefully Brief details of
the cover provided are as follows: ++ The limit varies according to the cost of the trip and/or the limit chosen by you. ** For certain tours these Excesses are increased, and will be advised to you when negotiating the insurance cover. Premiums Different premiums may apply if you are aged 66 to 75. Please contact us for details. We can also provide details for annual and family policies. The premiums are inclusive of Insurance Premium Tax (IPT) and are shown against each individual holiday in the brochure. If you are aged 70 years or over the premiums are different, and a Medical Certificate from your Medical Attendant confirming that you are fit enough for the trip you plan to join, must be produced before cover can be confirmed. You do not have to use this scheme, but if you make your own insurance arrangements, documentary evidence of your own Policy is required, which must contain evidence of satisfactory cover for repatriation and helicopter rescue. Annual Insurance Cover (Not available to residents of the USA or Canada) This insurance policy can also provide annual cover for mountaineering activities as well as other types of holiday, making it a very cost-effective option. There are two bands of premiums, depending on the type of mountaineering being undertaken, and you can select the amount of cancellation cover required. Annual insurance cover is effective from 12 months from the date of issue of the certificate and covers not only your expedition with us, but any other periods or holidays away from your home between 2 nights and 90 days in duration, subject to the terms and conditions of the certificate issued. Annual insurance can
be extended to include your spouse or partner for a further 60% of
the initial premium, or the whole family (including your spouse or
partner and all dependent children under the age of 18 who are in
full time education) for double the premium for an individual. Please
contact us for annual insurance premiums. For more information
