Travel Insurance

Travel insurance is compulsory for all travelers before making any trip. Master Himalaya strongly recommends travel insurance for those who are willing to travel to Nepal. Your travel insurance must cover accidents, injury, illness, and death medical expenses, including any related to pre-existing medical conditions, emergency repatriation (including helicopter rescue and air ambulance where applicable), and personal liability as per your travel insurance policy. It is necessary to ensure your travel insurance while traveling to Nepal because extra charter flights and extra services might be costly in case of unforeseen circumstances.
