Choosing the Right Insurance for Your Bhutan Journey
Bhutan’s remote clinics handle basics; serious incidents often require helicopter evacuation at US $1,500+/hr. Comprehensive travel insurance is non-negotiable.
Coverage Essentials
Your policy should include medical treatment, emergency evacuation (air/ground), trip cancellation, and personal liability. Adventure riders must cover high-altitude trekking, rafting, and mountain biking to ensure claims aren’t denied.
Top Providers & Costs
World Nomads and SafetyWing offer plans from US $40–70/week for standard coverage. Many Bhutan operators provide local top-up riders for extra helicopter or evacuation clauses—discuss these when booking.
Quick Tip: Email a PDF of your full policy to your guide and carry a printed copy in your daypack.
