Alpine Trekkers and Tours does not provide travel or liability insurance, medical assistance, or helicopter rescue coverage. Visitors are strongly advised to obtain comprehensive travel insurance from a reputable provider before heading on their journey.
Alpine Trekkers and Tours requires valid travel insurance for all trips, especially for climbing expeditions in Pakistan, where coverage for helicopter rescue in the event of an accident is required, as well as protection against expedition royalty fee losses in the event of cancellation. While it is not required, it is strongly advised to purchase travel insurance for trekking and tours in Pakistan to cover medical expenses.
For frequent travelers or those who take multiple trips per year, an annual or multi-trip insurance policy is recommended, especially if purchased jointly with a spouse, partner, or family member, as it can result in cost savings and convenience.
Alpine Trekkers and Tours recommends that you supply them with a copy of your insurance coverage before travel. This information will be shared with your tour or mountain leader in the event of an emergency. Furthermore, make sure your policy identifies you as the policyholder, guarantees coverage for the entire duration of your trip, includes medical expense coverage for emergencies (like illness or injury), and prominently displays the insurer’s 24-hour medical emergency contact phone numbers. Don’t forget to bring a copy of your policy with you on your vacation for convenient reference.
