Nepal Travel Insurance
Nepal travel insurance should be matched to your itinerary. A city tour has different risk from a high-altitude trek, helicopter tour, rafting trip, or remote safari. The most important detail is whether your policy covers your actual altitude, activity, and emergency evacuation needs.
Coverage to check first
- Emergency medical treatment
- Helicopter evacuation where relevant
- Altitude limit matching the route
- Trekking or adventure activity cover
- Trip delay and cancellation terms

Frequently asked questions
Do I need helicopter evacuation cover for Nepal?
For high-altitude trekking, remote regions, or routes with limited road access, helicopter evacuation cover is strongly recommended and sometimes essential.
Does normal travel insurance cover Everest Base Camp?
Not always. Many policies exclude trekking above certain altitudes, so confirm the route altitude and trekking activity are covered in writing.
