Travel Insurance & Flying Doctors

The cover you need, emergency evacuation and the Flying Doctors.

4 sections

Comprehensive travel insurance is essential for every guest on safari, on Kilimanjaro or in Zanzibar. It is not included in our tour prices, so please arrange it as soon as you book.

1 What Your Policy Should Cover

  • Medical treatment and hospital costs.
  • Emergency evacuation, including by air from remote areas.
  • Trip cancellation and interruption.
  • Lost or delayed luggage.
  • High-altitude trekking for Kilimanjaro climbs: cover up to 6,000 m is strongly advised.

2 Flying Doctors

AMREF Flying Doctors is East Africa's air ambulance service, flying patients from remote parks and mountains to hospital. Visitors can buy short-term evacuation membership for their stay, which complements your travel insurance but does not replace it.

3 Zanzibar Inbound Insurance

Zanzibar requires every international visitor to buy its own inbound travel insurance online before arrival, in addition to your personal policy.

4 Before You Travel

Please send us your insurer's name, policy number and 24-hour emergency phone number before your trip, so our team has them to hand if they are ever needed.
