Travel insurance is mandatory for adventurers looking forward to exploring this beautiful Himalayan country with Blissful Himalayas, There are several categories of travel insurance you can get during your trip to Nepal. However, we recommend travel insurance that covers both your medical and emergency evacuation costs for high-altitude adventures.
Thus, in case of any kind of emergency, you don’t have to shoulder the financial burden all by yourself. On your trip to Nepal, you will be able to buy several insurance packages, and the costs depend on the altitude gained during the trek, the age of the insuree, the duration of the coverage, the inclusion of helicopter rescue, etc.
You will be able to get the most basic travel insurance in Nepal for about US$ 30 to US$ 50, and they will cover your adventure upto 3,000 meters altitude. If you want to slightly upgrade the plan of the basic level of insurance, it can cost somewhere between US$ 100 to US$ 150 and will provide coverage for upto 6,000 meters.
But remember, these are just basic-level travel insurance plans, and they don’t have much extensive coverage. So, decide on the package depending on what kind of trip you are planning and its coverage proportionate to the risk you will be taking on during your adventure.
