Can I buy only adventure insurance or do I need a basic travel insurance, too? With our extreme sports insurance, you'll also be getting basic travel coverage to wherever you're going for the experience. However, trip protection is not included in these packages and should be purchased as an extension to the plan.
Do I need trip protection? Since so many of the top adventure sports are closely reliant on and involved with extreme weather conditions, trip protection is a highly recommended add-on. From snow sports to surfing, weather can make or break your vacation, and you always want to be covered should severe conditions affect your schedule or keep you from your quest.
What is considered an extreme sport and how do I know if I need special coverage? Most traditional travel insurance plans exclude activities associated with high risk, such as snowboarding or water sports. If your sport is one of the ones listed on this page, then congratulations! You're probably too adventurous for the average travel plan to meet your needs, and that's exactly why we are here for you.
Are there any activities that won't be covered? G1G curates only the best extreme sports insurance providers to ensure maximum coverage for a wide variety of sports. We've chosen this plan as the ultimate in adventure sports, as it includes even ones that are typically turned down by insurers, such as skydiving and black water rafting. Check the list above for your adventure activity. If you don't see it, please contact us to learn more.
If I buy snowboarding travel insurance, will I also be covered for other extreme sports? Your travel plan will be customized to the sports level of the activities you're planning on. If you're looking forward to multiple adventures, choose the one that has riskiest activity level, and all other experiences should fall under that umbrella of coverage. Let your G1G representative know which extreme activities you have planned and we can help you select the best option.
Do I need adventure sport insurance if I'm traveling within my home country? In the U.S.A., the Affordable Care Act requires insurers to cover all extreme sports and ultimate activities. So as long as you've got compliant coverage, you're all set to dive, surf, jump, raft, and play. In other countries, check with your standard health care provider to find out what is and isn't covered. If you still aren't sure what you need, G1G representatives are happy to offer free assessments of your current health insurance plan to guarantee that you will be covered on your adventure.
