We can make the initial contact with Jim on your behalf otherwise please let them know that you are a client of ours to access negotiated discounts.
For those travelling from other origins in the rest of the world we have links for travel insurance with global providers, please ask us for further details.
It is a condition of booking with us that you have current, travel insurance at the time of travel. This should include repatriation in case of emergency and should also be valid from the time of booking to cover any unforeseen event that might incur a cancellation and loss of deposit or full holiday cost. Please always check inclusions and exclusions, maximum holiday cost limits, activity limits and other details before finalising your insurance – annual travel insurance and family policies can often be much cheaper than taking out more than one single trip policy in a 12 month period.
