Propelled Adventure Activities Overseas
If you’re going to be travelling overseas, chances are you’re going to want to do something adventurous such as fishing. It’s always a necessity when you go to a foreign country to have some kind of
travel insurance to protect you. This could be something like the more economical essentials option, to the more comprehensive travel insurance policy. Regardless of what you choose, some
overseas travel insurance may be better than none at all and it is important to select the right policy for your travel needs.
A lot of people are travelling overseas nowadays to go on adventure holidays and fishing trip so it is good to know what you are covered for, before you do the activity or before you purchase your travel insurance to ensure that the activity is included and you are doing anything that may void your insurance.
Everyone’s idea of an adventure is different. Some people think of an adventure as trekking a jungle path, others think of it as bartering for items in a middle-eastern bazaar. Whatever adventure you conceive of, it may take you far from your home. We have travel insurance when we’re at home, typically in the form of private health and car insurance, so why would we forego travel insurance when we’re not near our home? Some may think that the time you need travel insurance the most is when you’re not near your friends and support networks.
If your idea of adventure involves you in a jet-propelled watercraft travelling at speed downriver or in the ocean – never fear – you can still receive travel insurance coverage. Typically, all of the Travel Insurance Saver policies may provide coverage for those people who are passengers on a jet-propelled watercraft.
If you’re travelling to somewhere like
New Zealand and you want to go jet-boating down a river, you can do so knowing you’ll be covered under your policy. As with your travel medical insurance, this also may cover medical evacuation and repatriation.
Cover is subject to the policy terms, conditions, and limitations and exclusions set out in the Product Disclosure Statement. Always read the Product Disclosure Statement before making a decision about any travel insurance policy.
